This is so cool! According to Hanabusa, the mastermind behind the projection, this is done by projection onto a screen, perfecting alignment with the dancers through repeated practice.

This may help her achieve precision movement. The other performer, Saya Watatani, is a ballerina who has also studied theatre.
