From the 1960s through the 1980s, the anti-art movement of Fluxus and the art-and-technology experiments forged by E.A.T. and Bell Labs asked a fundamental question in a pre-internet age: how ought one to live? Half a century later, in the 2020s—an era of generative expression and vast foundation models—that question returns in a new guise. This research trip sets out for New York, a city where runaway capitalism and raw dynamism coexist, to engage with both the heirs to that lineage and the grassroots of the next generation, bridging history to the present. Its goal is to serve as a bridge connecting Tokyo and New York–to find the next phenomenon and bring it home.

Serves as director at the computer art gallery NEORT, overseeing marketing & PR strategy and directing its exhibitions (joined 2024). Connects companies, collectors, and artists to support a world in which artists pursuing "the discovery of new perception" can thrive. Entered the crypto space in 2021 as CMO of SBINFT, and drawing on marketing experience at multinational companies, held Crypto Art Week Asia (2021) and Crypto Art Fes (2023) in Tokyo.
