BIG IN JAPAN
Japan has one of the most flourishing VJ and multimedia scenes in the world and Tokyo is often seen by many in Europe and the US as some kind of ‘VJ heaven’. The home of anime, manga and all kinds of kitsch pop has a long and rich tradition in the visual arts and VJing has moved more into the mainstream in Japan than perhaps anywhere else. With a visual culture that loves technology, the conditions are right for the scene to thrive.
Japanese artists featured included animators and designers Devil Robots, Power Graphixx, Hideaki Motoki, +Cruz, Enlightenment and Imai Toonz, as well as VJs Glamoove, TomoGrapher, Ukawa Naohiro, Kloma, SanFrandisco, Gooddy and UNU, plus AV artists Delaware, Masakatsu Takagi and Ryoichi Kurukawa, and many more. |
