A new tea bowl created using our AI-assisted design tool was exhibited at the Kansai Pavilion during Expo Osaka-Kansai. This collaboration between CTC and Asahiyaki, a traditional pottery studio from Kyoto, beautifully merges tradition with technology. qosmo.jp/r-and-d/neucra…

I am so honored to share a comment on my 2023 book from Mr. Robert Henke(Monolake/Ableton), who has long been one of my greatest inspirations. qosmo.jp/en/publication… I created my first album using his PX18 sequencer, and his Gobi album was the soundtrack while I wrote the book.
