Yamahyo Crossing website *available only in Japanese
"Yamauchi’s avatar lives in a space that imitates the Animal Crossing: New Horizons world. Just as there is only one of each person in the real world, only one Yamauchi exists in this virtual world. People experiencing this work can manipulate that single avatar together through networks.
In this game, they can create and change rooms, put different clothes on the avatar, and write letters and try to communicate with the avatar. However, the game attempts communication expression in much more raw and graphic ways than can be expressed in conventional TV games or online games. The artist questions the inherent violence of human beings through this other world of games.
