While Muidō has previously been documented through architectural plans, photographs, and videos, none of these formats have allowed future generations to have the same immersive experience as those living in the present. By utilizing 360-degree video, we have transformed the way this space is recorded—not merely as information, but as a genuine experience. This approach captures the essence of the environment, allowing viewers to engage with it as if they were physically present, thus preserving the immediacy and richness of the spatial experience for future audiences.
Kojima Torajiro, with the support of the Ohara family, traveled frequently to Europe, Egypt, and China for the purpose of art collection. While we cannot perfectly recreate the landscapes he experienced, we have utilized historical photographs and combined them with CGI to render the streetscapes of those countries from an aerial perspective. This innovative approach allows viewers to virtually retrace Kojima's footsteps, experiencing the world he encountered during his journeys in a way that connects the past with the present.
