In June 2025, the Physical Society of Japan will commemorate the 100th anniversary of quantum mechanics by hosting the “Quantum Festival” at the Miraikan – The National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation in Tokyo. This festival aims to bridge the gap between science and society, offering attendees an immersive experience into the world of quantum mechanics through a blend of lectures, exhibitions, and innovative performances.
As part of this celebration, N’SO KYOTO will present Fundamental Interactions.

Fundamental Interactions is a symphonic performance for spatialized orchestra, electronics, four screens, live video creation, spatialized sound.
Through a fusion of sound and video, spectators explore the four fundamental interactions—electromagnetism, strong and weak nuclear forces, and gravitation—that shape and sustain the universe.
The Quantum Festival is not only a tribute to a century of quantum research but also an opportunity to inspire curiosity and understanding of the quantum world among attendees. By integrating scientific concepts with artistic expression, the festival endeavors to create a space where science becomes accessible and engaging to all.
