What

Through audio and video storytelling, the use of different media and interactivity we enhance cultural heritage - historical, artistic, architectural, archaeological and intangible - through its reinterpretation and re-presentation in a new guise. Focusing on themes such as memory, territory, community and identities we create evocative experiences around themes of collective interest. Manipulating media and playing with reality and perception we develop multi-layered visual and sound narratives that open up to new interpretations.

How

Combining interactivity, multi-vision, story fragmentation and space design Tokonoma members gained over the years a unique experience in video creation, video installations, interactive video environments, multimedia experiences and exhibitions, museums and theatre projects.
Technology and media thus are the means we use to create engaging experiences, aimed at increasing public participation and critical sense.
