Harnessing his own experience as a dancer, the group puts on stage events and develops systems that enable new kinds of live performance. He was responsible for choreographing the lighting for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games opening ceremony. At Ars Electronica 2010, Fujimoto presented Lighting Choreographer, which expands the expressive capability of the human body through lights.
