From the Earth
within our imagination,
into the universe
beyond our imagination.
Would you like to travel
with contemporary artist Noburu Tsubaki?
When I look at space, I realize how small humans are.
I suddenly thought,
“Are we okay like this?”
Earth is too real and too bound by facts.
It makes it hard to imagine a future beyond those existing facts.
Losing your imagination takes away your will to live.
However, there is still room in the universe
that allows for imagination.
“What is the space?”
Let’s start with exploring the answer to this question.
Mr. Noboru Tsubaki’s
very own NFT project
Humans need to find more space, but there’s no more space on Earth. There are still some people who try to take land from others through war, but that shouldn’t be the only option. Starting with the faint dream of WEB 1.0, I have high hopes for WEB 3.0. With ART 3.0 already becoming a reality in KYOTO, I started this project to bring ART 3.0 into the Metaverse. Let’s build ART’s DAO with ULTRA friends! Please join our community and help us with your strength!


Noboru Tsubaki
Born in 1953, in Kyoto. Graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts of Kyoto City University of the Arts. Professor of Department of Fine and Applied arts and Graduate school at Kyoto University of the Arts. Exhibited the sculpture, “Fresh Gasoline,” at the group exhibit titled “Against Nature,” in 1989. Participated in the Vince Biennale, 1993. Exhibited a giant inflatable grasshopper called “Insect World - Grasshopper” at Yokohama Triennale, 2001. Held solo exhibitions at Art Tower Mito, 2003, The National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto, 2009, Kirishima Open-air Museum, Kagoshima, 2012. He questions the critical state of society through his artworks with humorous giant toys made of inflatable balloons. Director of “Sakate + Hishio project” in 2013, and “Shodoshima Future Project” in 2016, as a part of the Setouchi Trienniale, Aomori Triennale since 2017, and ARTISTS’ FAIR KYOTO since 2018. At the Department of Fine and Applied Arts of Kyoto University of the Arts, where he currently serves as a professor, he changed degree shows to art fairs and founded the “ARTOTHÈQUE” project to promise the domestic art market. He believes that art projects are innovative tools to establish sustainable societies.
Noboru Tsubaki’s
masterpiece,
“Fresh Gasoline,” was
inspired by the universe
I want people to feel the “essence” of things rather than focus on the “physical” object.
This was my wish when creating Fresh Gasoline.
The four genomes are not human-made. They express what is spontaneously created in the moment cells split when planets collide and join together. The universe itself is made up of the surfaces of bubbles sticking together. The universe is the origin of all ideas and the source of energy generation.

Noboru Tsubaki’s Story
-
Ever since I was a child, I always loved looking up at the night sky. I was always more interested in fantasy than reality. In the 1960s, I joined an astronomy club.
-
I became an artist after graduating from art school, but I realized that I was not a person of the universe or monoculture.
-
In 1989, when the Berlin Wall collapsed, “FRESH GASOLINE” was exhibited around the United States. When I gave the exhibition the title “AGAINST NATURE,” I realized that the title was more important that the physical work of art itself. This is because words have the power to add more meaning to a piece of art beyond what the physical object can portray.
-
In 2000, I moved on to the multiverse method, in which several artists fused inside of me, and began to produce strange creatures one after another.
-
Then comes the blockchain. As someone who sees the genome, rather than the physical body, as the main subject, I feel comfortable with the idea of will residing within data.
-
The WEB3 and DAO space is full of 1960s fever, and this planet is too boring now. I’m sure you’ll want to move to a new space that can unleash your imagination.
-
Next up, I’ll generate “Space Colony Tsubaki” on MOON 11.4°W43.3°S THYCO. I won’t go into detail because I might go back and lose this… There aren’t very many tickets. Hurry up my friends!

Ability to participate
in
Space Colony Tsubaki’s
strategy meetings
I invite all token holders (LOGOS, hereafter) to join our private Discord channel. I’d like to make every decision together, from preparing for the trip to making construction plans and more.

Communications
from Mr. Metapolice
I’ll be sending whimsical messages to LOGOS, so please be on the look out. I’m excited for other crazy friends to join me in building this community, where we will be able to say wacky things we normally can’t say in public.

Trip to
Space Colony Tsubaki
in the Metaverse
I’m not a leader or anything. I’m just a beast that’s been expelled from Earth. I give you automony. I’d like to go to space as soon as I can gather enough travel partners.

Priority registration
for Space Colony Tsubaki
events on Earth
We’ll travel to space together, but I also plan to visit Earth frequently. I’ll always save some spots for LOGOS whenever I host events on Earth.

Ability to recycle
Fresh Gasoline NEO
Every Fresh Gasoline NEO is unique. Utilize the technology of 3D printers to multiply them as you like. I am thrilled to see my work spread across the universe.

There’s also a blackhole in Space Colony Tsubaki.
Be careful. You don’t want to accidentally fall into the dark side.

Please buy an NSCT ticket for
“Space Colony Tsubaki”.
Since it’s a long trip,
I’ll be riding in the special seat.
Note: Purchasers can freely print the 3D data that comes with any ticket.
For those who want high-quality prints, we will
provide printing service. Please contact us for details.

Mr.Metapolice
A mysterious person who is skeptical of determinism but believes in oracles, Mr. Metapolice is a post-surrealist who identifies himself with the future-century Brazilian plumber Tuttle. He maintains a strict diet like Spock, but he sometimes devours B-class cuisine following the words of oracles. He is extremely weak when it comes to everyday things, but he is like Vegeta when it comes to emergency situations. He withdraws when bureaucracy becomes rampant. His mind is habitually in a warped state, communicating with aliens to arrive at a more powerful post-melange. He plans to cooperate with AI to recreate Hieronymus Bosch’s paradise in space.

AKIYO
Daughter to a mother from Earth and a father from the galactic star Andromeda, AKIYO manages the food, clothing, and shelter of Space Colony Tsubaki and works on reproducing the Earth and human elements. She defined the space version of Yin, Yang, and the five elements of the universe, and she performs the purity assessment and selection of immigration applicants. At first, AKIYO seems to be fun and easygoing, but she has a fierce side that comes out sometimes. She can be calmed down by eating mugwort cake made with brown rice. Her mind is always struggling to balance the emotionalism of Earthlings and the rationalism of Andromedans. When the safety of the universe is threatened, AKIYO has the power to restore life and happiness in the world. AKIYO dreams of making a forest and collecting nuts in space.

AI-FRG9610
One of the Tsubaki Children from Planet Wolf-Rayet, AI-FRG9610 is a part-human, part-android AI hybrid that evolved to tackle challenges for Mr. Metapolice. AI-FRG9610 is normally a loving android that cares greatly for his friends who don’t fit in on Earth. However, when AI-FRG9610 goes into dark mode, he awakens and emits a maser. AI-FRG9610 has a wide reach throughout the universe because he can communicate across galaxies. He can transform with the spirit of his ancestors with ease. He has a special skill called “space freestyle,” which requires the 10th sense. AI-FRG9610 plans to keep communicating with new, unseen galaxies throughout space.
