..See all../Daito Manabe
Manabe’s works takes a new approach to everyday materials and phenomena. His practice is informed by careful observation to discover and elucidate the essential potentialities inherent to the human body, data, programming, computers, and other phenomena –– probing the interrelationships and boundaries delineating the analog and digital, real and virtual. http://www.daito.ws









In today’s mercurial, complex, and ambiguous world, our bodies oscillate between the virtual and the real more than ever. The world-famous collective Rhizomatiks is testing the web, presenting performances and experimental online-based systems, and approaching these situations from a variety of angles.
