Who Made This?
teamLab Kids is an interdisciplinary group of ultra-technologists whose collaborative practice seeks to navigate the confluence of art, technology, design and the natural world. The group was founded in 2015 as a response to the current educational culture of Japan, which teamLab Kids feels prioritizes homogenous development, rote memorization and questions with a single correct answer. teamLab Kids installations such as Sketch Aquarium initiate freedom of expression and encourage individuals to achieve creative results as part of a larger team.
