In 2022, "teamLab Future Park & Animals of Flowers" in Taiwan achieved acclaim with 300,000 visitors. Now, teamLab collaborates again with Taiwanese organizers in digital creativity, introducing works currently exhibited in Okinawa. Centered on the concept of "co-creation," the new exhibition at the National Museum of Science and Technology immerses participants in interactive experiences, where visitors become integral to the artwork.
The exhibition, featuring ten installations, utilizes spatial design to create immersive environments with vibrant colors and stunning landscapes. Participants can wander through azure oceans, soar freely through the skies, or even transform into solar energy to cultivate fruit orchards using slide-like structures. Each visit promises new discoveries, with opportunities to create commemorative badges of self-designed patterns at the "Painting Factory."
Advance ticket sales for the exhibition at the National Museum of Science and Technology concluded on June 14, with grand opening festivities. Tickets purchased through udn Ticketing for "teamLab: Co-Creation! Future Park Taipei" offer chances to win tickets to the newly opened "teamLab Borderless" in Tokyo's Azabu Juban Hills. Prices for advance tickets are NT$390 for single, NT$750 for double, and NT$1,120 for triple tickets, valid until June 13.

The "TOYOTA 2024 Yomiuri Giants 90th Anniversary Taiwan Exhibition Games" concluded last night after two days, setting a new attendance record in Taiwanese baseball history with a total of 68,780 spectators attending both matches. This achievement has sparked interest from other Japanese professional baseball teams to visit Taipei Dome for exhibition games.
Two days ago, the Giants defeated the Chinatrust Brothers 4-1 with 37,890 fans present, marking the first full house at Taipei Dome and breaking the record for the largest attendance in Taiwanese baseball history. Last night, the Giants played against the Rakuten Monkeys, attracting 30,890 spectators, the second-highest attendance in history. The game ended in a scoreless tie, the first since the Dome's inauguration.
Both games saw over 30,000 attendees, with many fans sporting Giants jerseys. Giants manager Shinnosuke Abe commented, "Fans are essential for professional baseball. With such a fantastic venue like Taipei Dome, I hope Taiwanese baseball continues to thrive, and I will support it."
For the Giants, pitcher Meidai Wendel pitched three scoreless innings with five strikeouts, followed by Chen Kuan-yu allowing one hit in two innings, and Huang Tzu-peng finishing with six straight outs. In the ninth inning, Giants' Taiki Nakanishi hit a deep fly ball, caught before the home run wall, resulting in a double play as the base runner couldn't return in time.
The Giants managed only one hit throughout the game, which Abe acknowledged, saying, "We struggled with our batting against Rakuten and couldn't score. However, from the team's perspective, it's a decent result and shows areas for improvement in future seasons."
In their two games in Taiwan, the Giants first defeated the Chinatrust Brothers 4-1 and then tied with the Monkeys. In 16 games played historically in Taiwan, the Giants have 11 wins, 4 losses, and 1 tie. President Sumi Imamura personally attended the games and interacted closely with Taiwanese baseball enthusiasts, expressing hope to see more Taiwanese stars in Japanese professional baseball and aiming for the Giants to be a nurturing ground.
Reflecting on the games, Imamura emphasized that the greatest harvest was not just for the Giants or Taiwan, but for Asian baseball as a whole, considering the possibility of returning for future matches. Besides the Giants, representatives from other Japanese teams like SoftBank and Seibu also observed the games at Taipei Dome, contemplating similar exchanges.
Beyond the lively games, organizers invited young baseball players to interact with professional players before the matches. En route to Taipei Dome, a young player asked, "Is Taipei Dome really for playing baseball?" From the Asian Baseball Championship at the end of last year to the Giants' exhibition games, Taipei Dome continues to embody the spirit of baseball.
