Projection Mapping
The projection mapping images that will be projected onto the woods of Himawari no Sato this time were produced by eight third and fourth year students from the Department of Information Media Studies at Hokkaido Information University (Ebetsu City) under the guidance of Associate Professor Oshima Keitaro (with cooperation from Hokuryu Town village supporter Murakami Nobuyuki and local revitalization cooperation team member Sasaki Yui).
The projected images are mystical and glittering like art of light, with patterns of sunflowers, fireworks, dragons and more.
