Brief Explanation

TOUCH & BLOOM, a special installation to enjoy the beauty of the moment thorough touch payment, was invented. The "Sakura storm" symbolized the beauty of the moment, rarely experienced even during the cherry-blossom season. A special experience device was created at Nijo-jo Castle, in the heart of Kyoto. Participants put on special touch-payment wrist bands, immediately setting off a “Sakura storm” upon payment. The memorable moment was captured by a high-speed camera for sharing.

Execution

This project utilized the latest contactless payment system by VISA. Payments would trigger a special cherry blossom experience. Visitors wore a special wristband and entered the booth. Touching the terminal in the booth would complete the payment for their donation. Upon completion, a sudden burst of cherry blossom petals would fill the booth, rewarding them for the donation made. This moment was captured automatically by a hi-speed camera installed, and was quickly turned into a special short clip with music for the visitors to share on SNS.
