Ryuta Aoki
Ryuta is an artist, creative director, conceptual designer, system architect, software program engineer, entrepreneur, and social sculptor based mostly in Tokyo. Ryuta describes his Studying Artifact, SOTOROJI, as a part of a collection of spatial units that lead from the bizarre to the extraordinary, using the trendy social affordance of “seeing a QR code and scanning it with a digital camera,” simply as soto-roji (the outer backyard) within the Japanese tea ceremony serves as an area resulting in a world of profound subtlety. SOTOROJI was featured as an artwork piece on the Devcon venue, considered by 1000’s of attendees.
