Scope and content
File consists of two copies of the agenda for the workshop (held 14-16 November 1997). The workshop description is as follows: "Japanese Animation is renowned and copied all over the world. It is a critical part of television, comics (manga), gaming, and interactive media, both as a style, genre, and subculture in Japan. Manga (comics) are a strong part of post-war Japanese culture. In this seminar, we considered technological power in the post-war post-nuclear era without its optimistic celebration in animation. Now animation is present across audiences, media, and genres in Japan and has reached an international audience, including the Web. The supernatural and fantastic are elements of the comic imagination in Japan and North America. To warm up the participants for this one-day workshop, an evening screening of selected animation work in film, video, and interactive media from Japan preceded the event. An animation exhibition, supported in part by Canada’s Year of Asia Pacific, was open at The Banff Centre concurrent with the workshop. The leading animation artist hosting the workshop presented an overview of the work and spoke to a number of key issues in animation practice at home and abroad. This public seminar was held as part of a week-long residency at The Banff Centre that explored the interactive environment and considered the possibilities of future collaboration with artists in other workshops and residencies."
