I’m Yusuke Hosokawa, in the 4th grade. Due to the Covid-19, the seminar was held on zoom this year too. Nevertheless, many students have newly joined. It’s going to be a fun seminar activity.
In the first half, we introduced each other and confirmed how to proceed with seminar activities. In the second half, we exchanged opinions for MMM.
It’s been a little more this year.The end of the turbulent 2020 is just around the corner.
Today, we had a seminar on lineThe first 20 minutes we looked back on the academic conference. After that, We watched a presentation about personal research of third grade students, expressed our impressions, and asked questions. I think it was a meaningful time because the professor give us advice and the students solve their questions.
The themes of our personal research ranged from video to manga. There are various and interesting things depending on the person, such as their past or purely wanting to do it, and I’m very looking forward to see completed their work.
Hi there, I’m Akihiro Ueda, and I’m in my third year.
This time, I will look back at how we worked on the recent academic conference.
Our group used Miro to create a video work. Miro is an online whiteboard tool that has been used since the introduction of online classes.
As the SA program for 2nd year students was cancelled, we decided to create a video that would allow 3rd and 4th year students to share their experiences with 2nd year students.
This was my first academic conference since I became a third-year student, and I really enjoyed the experience of working with a group to create a single piece of work. I was also happy to have won the grand prize.
This time, I’m trying to look back about academic conference representing Performance Team.
Our team consists of five juniors and two sophomores, and this was the first time of the academic conference for all. So, there were a lot of hardships.
We couldn’t make good progress with the work and felt anxious.
However, our team could complete a work of performance art 20 minutes before the deadline.
We were worried when we’re performing ourselves, but after watching the video of our performance, we were relieved that it was so cool. I think this work was unique to team that could not be made alone.
(If you haven’t seen it yet, please take a look!)
I don’t know the result yet, but it was a new challenge for everyone on the team and it was a very valuable experience.
Hello. Today’s writer is Natsu Suzuki. These days, it is cold outside, so please take care of yourself… Today, we had a seminar on line. At first, we watched the work other team made, then we shared our impressions. In the last, we talked about “work in the group” and “the work for each person”, then brushed up.
It’s almost up to the academic conference. This time I write about the preparation and going to the exhibition to see reference works.
This year, we have to submit the work, document and presentation video, so there are so many things to do now. We work on not only works but also the presentation.
Performance team will refer to Yoko Ono’s work, so we went to the exhibition, “DOUBLE FANTASY – John & Yoko” in the last Saturday.
Ono is one of the representative artist of conceptual art. I knew that she was John Lennon’s wife, but their ties and works were beyond my imagination. I was very impressed.
Like Ono and Lennon, we’ll try to make good works together.
It’s getting colder outside and we can feel the mood of autumn. I love it so match though.
This week, we have discussed how and where to make our works for the Academic conference which is going to be held in December. In fact, we have three groups; each of those have different ideas, and talked its details in more specific way than last week.
1 An hommage of "Cut piece" by Ono Yoko. 2 A film which captures a normal daily life. 3 A work made with miro system.
In addition, we are planning to start to have a class in off line from Nov. I have never seen some of the mates, because this year all classes are held on line. I’m looking forward to see everyone in real way.
I’m Hazuki Yamamoto in the 4th grade. Today I’ll write about the class and going to Yokohama to see some exhibitions.
In the class, we talked about arts for the academic conference. This year there are many plans, so we’re going to work in teams and do all ones.
Almost members of seminar decided to join the teams and make the art, and talked about what they do concretely.
To make good ones for the conference, we went to Yokohama and saw 3 exhibitions.
First, we could see so many works in Yokohama Triennale. Some works treated social problems, so sometimes we considered them clearly.
Second, we saw the exhibition of Tadashi Kawamata. He is a famous artist, who worked in Yokohama Triennale as a director. His big arts were in station and the city. They made us think about installation.
Finally, we went to Koganecho. In this city, people plan community with art. So, “Koganecho Bazaar” was so interesting for us as students of Inagaki seminar.
We walked a lot and discovered many hints. Academic conference is very hard, so we’ll do our best.
