macoto murayama, a japanese architect-turned-artist has harnessed his ability to digitally dissect and reconstruct flowers
for a panasonic hollywood labs promotional short. perhaps due to murayama's practice in architecture school, gaining a thorough
comprehension of three dimensional rendering programs such as 3DCG software or adobe photoshop, in addition to spatial awareness
and attention to detail, the artist is able to unveil the hidden elements and inner form of each flower. murayama studies each part
of the plant separately in order to recreate the individual components as a precisely measured representation of the total physical object
in a more easily studied digitized manifestation.

panasonic developers ask 'where do science and art intersect?' as the digitized botanical visualization moves across the screen.
