Description:
This work was inspired by a question: What would it be like if a water drop explodes like fireworks? Water drops in microgravity space burst sequentially, imitating the Japanese seasonal fireworks tradition. My aim is to let the audience enjoy the contrast between the silence of floating water drops and the active motion of the water burst.
