[ecrea] Japan in the Digital Age - conference

Sat Aug 26 14:02:58 GMT 2017





Registration is now open for: ​Japan in the Digital Age, Saturday 28th October, 2017 Digital Innovation/The Shed, Manchester Metropolitan University, Manchester, UK

Japan has been a place of fascination throughout the years, yet there is little sustained discussion on how contemporary Japan is situated within the rapidly changing landscape of the New Millennium. This interdisciplinary, one-day Symposium brings together academics, PG students and practitioners to examine the transformation of Japan in the Digital Age, and the transformation of the Digital Age through Japanese culture, practice, politics, technologies, industries and beyond. We wish to provide a supportive and inspiring environment to engage in cross-disciplinary and cross-sector dialogues; to present the opportunity to learn about innovative digital projects, technologies and practices in Japan; and to encourage building a network of those engaged with Japan through their work and lives.
Keynote speakers:
--Ian Condry, Professor of Japanese Cultural Studies, Global Studies and Languages, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA --Gen-i Kazuhito (源井 和仁), award-winning media practitioner and Managing Director of Because Co. Ltd, Japan. Please find our programme here: https://sites.google.com/view/japan-in-the-digital-age/programme
