- “禅”(Zen) is known as Japanese traditional meditation. It has recently drawn the attention of people working at Silicon Valley’s companies like Google. We have designed a novel interface to breath visualization, based on the Zen concept, by creating a scalable sphere, which change its size according to one’s breathing. This artwork: “孤球”(KOKYU: A Solitary Sphere) is composed of such a traditional meditative structure, the most advanced technology at the present day. It helps people to experience Zen meditation through a deeper spiritual feeling by looking at oneself. In other words, it allows people to feel as if they are having a conversation with themselves. Thus, getting closer to the purpose of Zen: searching for the truth of who we are. Demonstration video at YouTube: (https://youtu.be/srTeGo3buME)
