Fossils
Site-specific holographic installation (work in progress)
King's Chamber in Great Pyramid in Giza, Cairo
                  One night, I had a strange dream, 
                  where I was standing and watching myself sleeping with Kayo.
                  Then I suddenly realized that I was inside of King's Chamber, 
                  The Great Pyramid of Khufu.
                  I was aware that I was in a dream.
                  Our time has been frozen and seems like it lasts forever.

         Dream in panorama ( QTVR required ) 

Working on "Fossils" is a realization process of my personal dream.
It is a disappointment not being able to remember sensations of dreams.

The sensations of seeing a hologram are close to those of feeling a dream or déjá vu.
With the completion of "Fossils," my dream may exist in déjávu.
                 
 Since Ikuo started working on Holography in New York.
He has been exploring this medium mixed with other visual medium, 
such as computer controlled holographic animation, brain wave interactive holographic installation, 
stereograms from video, computer graphics and photographs, and interactive space-projected 
video installation by using hologram.
Recently, his focus is on laser-transmission hologram, which has been abandoned by most holographers.
He thinks laser viewable hologram is true hologram and the most holographic  hologram.
