Japanese artworks at the PRIX ARS Electronica and Japan Media Arts Festival over the past forty years of Japanese media art activity
We are trying to build a history of Japanese Media Art from the event, with the artistic support of company Mesena (mécénat) and through the student-teacher relationships at the educational research institute. It will consist of an infographic that clearly displays the relationship between the winning projects at PRIX Ars Electronica and those at the Japan Media Art Festival.
