Words become visuals and sound, shaped live by a human performer. Witness an artwork taking form as it is performed.

AI artist aratama 璞 will appear as a special guest at the GMI & MiniMax AI Art Gallery at Shibuya Hikarie in Tokyo on Thursday, October 8, 2026.

He will give a live performance of about ten minutes with his own real-time generative system, PERCEPTION → LIVE. | Real-Time Generation AIVDJ. Combining AI-generated visuals and sound with live human mixing, the performance will be followed by a short talk on the artistic ideas and technology behind the work.

Turning Words into Visuals and Sound—and Performing the Process

PERCEPTION → LIVE. is an AIVDJ system that generates visuals and sound from words, building the piece in real time through looping and mixing.

ChatGPT interprets the input words and concepts through APL (ARATAMA PERCEPTION LANGUAGE), aratama 璞’s original expressive framework, and translates them into instructions for audiovisual generation. These instructions are sent via MCP (Model Context Protocol) to a Mac-based system that uses MiniMax H3 to generate video with audio.

As the generated material plays, the artist adjusts volume, EQ, and reverb. Instructions to the AI and live human mixing shape the work together, transforming it as it unfolds.

The chat interface and console reveal the original words, how they are interpreted, the instructions being sent, and the progress of generation. Audiences experience the visuals and sound while witnessing how they come into being.

The Wait for Generation Becomes Part of the Performance

Real-time generation involves waiting and unpredictable changes. PERCEPTION → LIVE. incorporates both into the structure of the performance.

If the next output is not ready in time, the system returns to the beginning of the material generated so far and loops through it. When new output becomes available, the system prioritizes it for playback, taking the performance in a new direction.

What emerges, when it changes, and how the artist responds all shape the unfolding work. Generation, playback, and human intervention happen concurrently. Together, they constitute the artwork.

Giving a Website’s Language a Life of Its Own

For the work submitted to the event, aratama 璞 used words and concepts from the GMI Cloud website as source material.
“One cloud for compute, inference, and agents.”
Compute becomes a skeleton. Inference becomes a nervous system. The autonomy of agents takes shape as organs.

Through APL, the language of infrastructure is reimagined as organic structures and motion, then expressed through visuals and sound. The submitted work was created using MiniMax H3 and documents the process of generation and live performance.

For the live performance at Shibuya Hikarie, the system is planned to use MiniMax H3 through the GMI Cloud API.

At the venue, aratama 璞 will operate PERCEPTION → LIVE. in real time, presenting the full process from instructions and generation to human mixing. The interplay between generated output and decisions made in the moment will shape a work unique to that night.

Playing a System That Behaves Like a Living Entity

At the heart of this practice is All-Human Perception, the concept that guides aratama 璞’s work.

How does contact with AI reshape human perception and expression? PERCEPTION → LIVE. explores this question through performance, bringing people, AI, and the space itself into a shared process.

A person supplies words. AI interprets and generates. The resulting visuals and sound, in turn, influence human judgment and action. The artist becomes part of this cycle, changing alongside the work.

Playing the system itself as it behaves like a living entity. In this performance, the visuals, the sound, and the relationships through which they emerge are all part of the artwork.

Event Overview

The GMI & MiniMax AI Art Gallery is an evening of AI-generated video and music screenings, guest talks, and networking for anyone exploring AI and creativity.

On August 27, 2026, aratama 璞 attended the Dreamina AI Creator Meetup Tokyo, held at Studio Earth at the Tokyo Tower Media Center.

Hosted by Dreamina AI, Hagia Labs, and SideHustle.Works, the creator meetup brought together screenings of AI-powered films, presentations on real-world production workflows and creative projects, creator talks, updates from Dreamina AI and Seedance, and networking sessions.

Studio Earth’s large circular screen also provided an opportunity to experience generative AI filmmaking at a scale far beyond the typical desktop or mobile viewing environment.

Dreamina AI Open Call Selected Works on the Big Screen

The event featured a screening of selected works from the Dreamina AI Open Call, held under the theme “Through the Portal.”

The Open Call invited Japan-based creators to submit short films created with Dreamina AI, with selected works presented on Studio Earth’s large-format screen.

Even when working from the same theme and the same generative AI platform, the selected films differed significantly in visual language, narrative structure, motion design, and the relationship between image and sound.

Watching AI-generated films on a large screen creates a very different experience from viewing them on a computer or smartphone. Fine movement, spatial composition, visual detail, and synchronization with sound become far more pronounced. It was particularly striking to see AI filmmaking expanding beyond short-form social content into work designed for cinematic and large-scale screening environments.

AI Filmmaking Moves into a More Practical Production Phase

One of the most notable aspects of the event was how the conversation around AI filmmaking has moved beyond simply asking what can be generated. The focus is increasingly on how AI can be integrated into real production workflows, how its output can be controlled, and how generated material can ultimately be shaped into a finished creative work.

Jonah Kishiya of GEEK PICTURES / GEEK GARAGE presented examples of workflows that integrate generative AI into actual creative production.

One approach that stood out in particular used a traditional Japanese painting as the starting point, adding three-dimensional, drone-like camera movement and spatial depth with AI to transform the static artwork into a moving cinematic environment.

Rather than simply animating a single image, the workflow preserves the visual language of the original artwork while designing camera position, depth, direction of travel, and spatial relationships to expand the still image into a moving scene.

Examples like this reinforce how AI filmmaking increasingly depends not only on the capabilities of the underlying model, but on production design as a whole — including visual development, camera work, consistency, direction, and editing.

Even when creators use the same generative AI model, the results can differ dramatically depending on the source material, how much control is given to the model, how motion is designed, and where human direction and editorial decisions enter the process.

AI filmmaking appears to be moving from the question of whether moving images can be generated at all toward a more practical phase: integrating AI with established filmmaking techniques and determining how precisely creative intent can be maintained and controlled throughout production.

Creative Process and Decision-Making Behind the Work

Following the Open Call screenings, creator talks offered a closer look at the thinking and production processes behind the work.

Creators shared the ideas behind their projects, challenges encountered during production, and the creative decisions and approaches involved in working with AI. The sessions provided valuable context that is often invisible when viewing only the finished films.

As generative AI becomes more capable, the distinction between works may increasingly come not from the ability to generate compelling footage itself, but from why a creator selects a particular image, how those images are structured, and how they are ultimately shaped into a coherent work.

Latest Developments in Dreamina AI and Seedance

A session from the Dreamina AI team introduced the latest Dreamina AI features, developments around Seedance, and the platform’s broader direction.

The Open Call also brought together works created with Dreamina AI and Seedance, offering a snapshot of the different ways creators are currently approaching generative AI filmmaking.

Beyond improvements in raw generation quality, AI video production is moving closer to professional workflows through capabilities such as multi-reference production, stronger consistency, and greater control over camera movement.

Going forward, comparing individual models in isolation will become less important than understanding how the entire production pipeline is designed — from concept development and reference preparation to generation, editing, music, and final exhibition.

Connecting with Tokyo’s AI Creative Community

Source: Dreamina AI

The latter part of the event was dedicated to networking, creating opportunities to connect with creators and production professionals working across AI filmmaking, film, animation, design, and other creative fields.

Being able to discuss production backgrounds, technical experimentation, current projects, and creative challenges in person provides a different kind of value from encountering someone’s work online.

When creators connect not only around tools and technology, but around what they actually want to create with them, those conversations can become the starting point for entirely new forms of expression and collaboration.

Reflections from the Event

Three developments stood out in particular from the event.

First, AI-generated moving-image work is increasingly being created and experienced as work intended for large-screen presentation.

Generative AI video has rapidly spread through social platforms and desktop viewing environments. Once the work moves into a venue with a large screen and dedicated sound system, however, the demands placed on composition, detail, audiovisual synchronization, and the overall structure of the piece begin to change.

Second, as generative models become more capable, the importance of human decisions around structure, direction, editing, selection, and rejection becomes even greater.

The technical barrier to generating compelling imagery continues to fall, but the value of direction and editing required to transform that material into a complete work may actually be increasing.

Third, the conversation around AI filmmaking is beginning to expand beyond generation technology itself into production, finished works, IP, and creative communities.

AI is becoming more than a technology for automating individual production tasks. It is beginning to reshape the structure of the creative process itself.

aratama 璞 will continue exploring new creative systems and forms of expression for the AI-native era, working across AI art, animation, filmmaking, and music.

AI Artist / AI Creative Architect aratama 璞 will exhibit at GEN_AI_EXHIBITION VOL.6, taking place on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, at the Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Trade Center, Hamamatsucho-kan.

Participating independently as part of the event’s circle exhibition, aratama is currently planning to Real-Time Generation AIVDJ that is now in production.

The exact exhibition lineup will continue to evolve right up until the event, reflecting the latest work in progress and new creative ideas. The booth will primarily feature moving-image work while offering a look at aratama’s latest explorations in AI-driven creativity.

aratama plans to exhibit and remain at the venue throughout the day.

GEN_AI_EXHIBITION — known in Japanese as “生成AIなんでも展示会” (Seisei AI Nandemo Tenjikai) — is one of Japan’s largest grassroots generative AI exhibitions.

Individual developers and creators bring together technologies and works made with generative AI, meeting face-to-face to demonstrate, discuss, and experience one another’s creations.

The exhibition spans a broad range of independently developed work, including images, video, music, AI characters, robots, games, LLM applications, research experiments, and other generative AI projects.

Rather than focusing solely on large-scale commercial technology, the event is rooted in Japan’s grassroots creator culture: a place where people can bring what they have made simply because they are passionate about it, share it directly with others, and build new connections through that creative energy.

GEN_AI_EXHIBITION VOL.6 will take place on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, at the Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Trade Center, Hamamatsucho-kan.

aratama 璞 will participate independently as part of the general circle exhibition.

Fivefold Growth in Two Years: A Generative AI Event That Keeps Expanding

Source: GEN_AI_EXHIBITION VOL.6 Official Website

GEN_AI_EXHIBITION has continued to grow with each edition.

Attendance rose from approximately 500 visitors at Vol.1 in April 2024 to around 600 at Vol.2, 900 at Vol.3, 1,500 at Vol.4, and approximately 2,500 at Vol.5 in May 2026.

In roughly two years, attendance has grown to around five times the size of the inaugural event.

The series has welcomed approximately 6,200 visitors in total, and its community continues to expand beyond Japan, with visitors from countries and regions including China, South Korea, and Europe.

What began as a grassroots gathering of individual AI developers and creators is steadily growing into an important meeting point for Japan’s emerging generative AI creative scene.

New Anime Music Video Set to Premiere at the Venue

For this edition, aratama 璞 is planning to premiere a new anime music video currently in production.

Rather than locking the exhibition format in place well in advance, the content will continue to evolve up until the day of the event in response to the latest stage of production and new creative ideas.

The booth will focus primarily on AI-driven moving-image and animation work, introducing some of the new forms of expression and creative processes aratama is currently exploring.

Real-time visual treatments and live demonstrations using the new work are also under consideration, moving beyond the conventional format of simply screening a completed video.

This may include elements of AIVDJ, aratama’s ongoing exploration of audiovisual performance that brings together moving images, music, and real-time direction. The exact form of the presentation will continue to develop through the day of the exhibition.

Connections Made at the Exhibition Have Grown into Lasting Collaborations

For aratama 璞, GEN_AI_EXHIBITION is more than a place to present finished work.

Some of the people aratama has met through previous editions have remained in close contact ever since. Those encounters have led to professional collaborations, ongoing creative exchanges, and relationships with people who have become important peers and trusted collaborators.

In a field where so much communication happens online, there is particular value in bringing work into a physical space, meeting in person, and talking directly with other creators.

A conversation sparked by a piece of work or a new technology can continue well beyond the exhibition floor — developing into future productions, collaborations, projects, and exchanges of ideas.

Those relationships are one of the reasons aratama continues to return to the event.

On Site All Day: Come Talk About AI, Creativity, and What Comes Next

aratama plans to remain at the venue throughout the day.

Because most of aratama’s creative work and communication takes place online, there are relatively few opportunities to spend an entire day meeting creators, visitors, and people who have followed the work in person.

Beyond the new anime MV, aratama is looking forward to conversations around topics including:

• AI filmmaking and AI animation
• Generative AI production workflows
• Building a practice as an AI artist
• Character design and IP development
• Combining moving images and music
• AIVDJ and live audiovisual performance
• Developments in the global AI creative scene
• How to release, present, and expand creative work
• Building communities and turning creative activity into sustainable business

Whether you are already creating with AI, are interested in generative AI and creative technology, are thinking about starting your own practice, or have connected with aratama online but never met in person, please feel free to stop by the booth and say hello.

Sharing Insights from CapCut World 2026 Singapore

Ahead of GEN_AI_EXHIBITION VOL.6, aratama 璞 is also scheduled to attend CapCut World 2026 Singapore in early September 2026.

At the Tokyo exhibition, aratama hopes to share first-hand impressions from Singapore — including developments in moving-image creation, conversations with international creators, and perspectives on the rapidly evolving global AI creative landscape.

The experience and inspiration brought back from Singapore will also feed into new work and future creative projects in Tokyo and beyond.

Comment from aratama 璞

I have been participating in GEN_AI_EXHIBITION since 2024, and over the years I have met an incredible number of people through the event.

This will be my fourth time exhibiting. Some of the people I first met here have since become collaborators I work with professionally, while others have become close creative peers I still exchange ideas with and turn to for advice.

An exhibition is obviously a place to show your work, but for me, one of its greatest values is simply being able to meet people and talk face-to-face.

Most of my activity takes place online, so having an entire day at the venue to meet and talk with people in person is actually quite rare.

I am planning to premiere a new anime MV this time, but just as importantly, I would like to talk with as many people as possible about AI filmmaking, animation, creative production, AIVDJ and live performance, as well as what I have been seeing and experiencing internationally.

Whether you are already making work, are simply interested in AI, or we have known each other online but never met in person, please feel free to come and say hello.

If you are a registered AI Creators member and will also be exhibiting or attending the event, please reach out either beforehand or at the venue.

AI artist aratama 璞’s AIVDJ work “UZUME” has been officially selected for GENaiME Anime Fest 2026, an international online film festival presented by Escape AI Media.

Following the screening of “Inner Elevator” in 2025, this marks aratama 璞’s second consecutive official selection for the festival.

The full 4K version of “UZUME,” with a runtime of 4 minutes and 55 seconds, will be screened during the festival on Saturday, August 1, 2026 in Pacific Time, or early Sunday morning, August 2 in Japan.

“UZUME”: Crossing the Boundaries of Anime, Live Action, Music, and Performance

“UZUME” is an audiovisual work that brings animation, live-action imagery, music, virtual expression, and performance design together within a single continuum.

Through “AIVDJ,” a creative format developed by aratama 璞, the work moves beyond video as something to be passively watched. Instead, it constructs an experience in which music, physicality, space, character, and the boundaries between the virtual and physical worlds intersect.

Rather than fitting neatly into established categories such as animation or music video, “UZUME” is an experimental project that crosses the boundaries between anime and live action, as well as between screen-based work and live performance.

The festival team praised the work for its intensity, visual immersion, and highly hybridized approach to combining multiple forms of expression. “UZUME” was selected as a work that reflects GENaiME’s commitment to exploring new creative possibilities emerging from anime and manga.

About GENaiME Anime Fest 2026

GENaiME Anime Fest is an international online film festival presented by Escape AI Media.

The festival showcases original short films by independent creators and filmmakers from around the world whose work is inspired by anime and manga.

Its program extends beyond conventional narrative animation to include anime realism, music-driven films, experimental moving-image works, and projects that combine live action with animation and other visual forms.

The 2026 edition marks the festival’s second year and will feature approximately 90 minutes of work by creators from across the globe.

The event is free to attend online. Participants can enter a browser-based 3D virtual theater using an avatar, watch the selected works, and interact with filmmakers and other audience members through text and voice chat.

A livestream option will also be available for viewers who prefer to watch without entering the 3D virtual environment.

Officially Selected for the Second Consecutive Year

In 2025, aratama 璞’s AI music video “Inner Elevator” was officially selected for genAIme [esc] fest 2025 and screened alongside short films from around the world.

In 2026, “UZUME” expands the scope of this creative practice and brings aratama 璞 back to the GENaiME lineup for a second consecutive year.

Where “Inner Elevator” explored the reconstruction of music, imagery, texture, and the perception of time through AI-generated moving images, “UZUME” extends that exploration into live performance, spatial experience, and hybrid audiovisual expression.

Comment from aratama 璞

I am deeply honored to have my work selected for GENaiME for the second consecutive year, following “Inner Elevator” in 2025.

“UZUME” is an experiment in bringing anime, live action, music, virtual expression, and performance together within a single continuum. It explores a transition from moving images as something we watch to an experience that also incorporates the body, physical space, and live presence.

It is particularly meaningful to have the work recognized not simply as an animated piece, but as a hybrid exploration that begins with anime and manga and moves beyond their conventional boundaries.

I hope this screening will lead into the future live-performance development of “UZUME” and the continued evolution of AIVDJ as a distinct form of creative expression.
