TOKYO -- Most visitors to Mifuneyama Rakuen in western Japan are drawn by the garden's 200,000 some-odd azaleas and rich history. But for the past few summers, there has been another reason to stop by: the computer graphics.
In a nightly art show, called "A Forest Where Gods Live," high-tech projections are cast upon the rocks, pond and trees, accompanied by music and sound effects. The blend of digital wizardry and natural scenery is arranged by TeamLab, a Tokyo-based creative collective.
