Formed in 2001 in Tokyo, teamLab is an art collective, interdisciplinary creative group who brings together professionals from various fields of practice in the digital society: artists, programmers, engineers, CG animators, mathematicians, architects, web and print graphic designers and editors. Referring to themselves as "ultratechnologists", the group aims to go beyond the boundaries between art, science, technology and creativity, through co-creative activities.

A digital work by artist collective teamLab. In this work, the movement of waves in water is simulated in a computer-generated, three-dimensional space. The water is expressed as a continuous body after calculating the interactions of hundreds of thousands of particles. To visualize the waves, the behavior of the particles on the water was then extracted and lines were drawn in relation to the movement of the particles. The wave created in a 3-D virtual space is then turned into an artwork in accordance with what teamLab refers to as “ultrasubjective” space. When viewing this artwork, as opposed to watching waves shot with a video camera, people may feel that the barrier between themselves and the waves disappears.
