Galaxy & teamLab: Capturing and Exploring the Dinosaur Forest

Experience the captivating collaboration between teamLab and Galaxy at the Galaxy Harajuku in Harajuku. Immerse yourself in a digital wonderland where you can embark on an interactive adventure of catching and studying digital creatures within the enchanting forest. This exhibition, now in its third iteration, offers a unique opportunity to use the Galaxy smartphone app to collect various prehistoric animals inhabiting the mystical realm.

Approach these creatures with care, as they may scurry away if touched, vanishing into the depths of the forest. However, with luck, they might display curiosity and turn towards you. Your task is to point your phone camera at them, release a Study Arrow in their direction, and capture them on your screen to delve into their nature and learn more about them.

Collaborate with fellow visitors to guide the projected dinosaurs on the floor, and then utilize the Study Net to capture them into your phone. Once you have studied them, release them back into the exhibition space.

Admission to the exhibit is free, but reservations are required to ensure a pleasant and uncrowded experience. Each session lasts for an hour, and the exhibition is open daily from 11 am to 7 pm. Booking a timeslot can be done up to three days in advance through the event website.
