Technical direction for ‘Media Art Studies 2023 “Playing with Your Eyes” Directed by Iwai Toshio’
In charge of technical direction for Toshio Iwai’s exhibition ‘Media Art Studies 2023 “Playing with Your Eyes”’ held at Civic Creative Base Tokyo [CCBT].
Civic Creative Base Tokyo transforms into a playground for experiencing, discovering, and creating the principles and mechanics of moving images with a series of events overseen by the media artist and children’s book author Iwai Toshio.
The advances in telecommunications and digital devices have meant that we are now surrounded by more images in our everyday lives than at any time in human history, putting vast amounts of information at our fingertips. But in this playground, images that are usually static comes to life and move, offering you the opportunity to rediscover the playful visual trickery and wonder and awe intrinsic to moving image and animation. Learn how early animation devices from the nineteenth century worked, “replay” Iwai’s Time Stratum series, a major work in the history of media art, and experience the creativity of art and technology!
