FORUM8 Design Festival 2021 EVE was held completely online under the theme '-Follow the Path to the Future "A New Road"-', which was evolved from the last year's theme "New Normal". An artist ONI designed the sound and produced the whole eve event, integrating cutting-edge CG image expression sound and stereo sound. Focusing on the Japanese traditional culture such as the Kado (floral design) and Noh, a variety of showcases such as stage live performances, tap dance, pelvis work, media art + juggling were performed in combination with the state-of-the-art technologies as media art with a new world view.

After MC AYUMI and ONI came up to the stage, finally the event started with the gorgeous and powerful Kado (floral design) performance expressing the universe by Ms. Koen Yokoi, a Sogetsu-ryu performer.

Next showcase by a programmer Luki and ONI artistically visualized the movement of juggling by collaborating with media art. In addition to it, singing by yully, a talented diva, and "Light from Collapse" show by ANNA SATO, a ballerina, and ONI showed possibilities of expression technologies.

As a new trial, we held a pelvis workshop by Ms. Midori Tachibana (body analyst) collaborated with sound shower (solfege frequency) and images supervised by Prof. Kaoru Sakatani (brain scientist) and Ms. Ronko Itamura (doctor / medical expert), aiming at healing and releasing the audience's body and mental by making them be immersed into images that were connected to sound, in the current corona disaster where the society and persons are stuck in the middle.

In the performance of Mr. Kanta Nakamori, Shite-kata of Kanze-ryu style Noh performer, we could see a collaboration of "Hagoromo" dance of Noh and audiovisual.
