Abstract
In ROJI, people have to walk according to TOBIISHI, which are stepping stones creating the pathway. TOBIISHI have influences on both pedestrian movements and fixation behaviors. To illustrate the influence, the experiment was conducted such that subjects wearing an eye camera walked in the ROJI under two stages, before informing and after informing the specific way of walking on the TOBIISHI. Characteristics of subjects' fixation behaviors of the "after informed" stage were found. The characteristics show the possibility that subjects in the "after informed" stage saw artistic aspects of ROJI, which they did not in the "before informed" stage.
