Following our visit to the temple, we had pre-purchased tickets to an art installation in Kyoto run by the TeamLabs international art collaboration group.
The exhibition is staggered over multiple floors of a commercial building near the Kyoto station. Many of the exhibits are interaction in some way, whether via connection to the Teamlabs app, physical touch, or algorithms that respond to the presence of people or other objects.
There is no set course or timetable for visiting the Biovortex and in many of the rooms there are multiple pathways to explore or rooms hidden from your initial view. The exhibitions frequently combine sound, light, and nature together to create an incredible, immersive experience. Ten out of ten, would visit again.
We each had our own particular favorite points for the exhibition, but because each of the exhibits was so unique, it is difficult to actually compare. All in all, we spent about 3 hours exploring the museum and could have spent more if we were not so hungry.
As we had spied a CoCo Curry on the walk over, we decided to stop there for a late lunch, early dinner. Years and years ago, Jenn and I had first discovered Japanese-style curry through a CoCo Curry when we visited Nagoya, so it was a bit nostalgic to visit one again.
