Overview

From the Gutai group's performances to the latest experiences in Interactive Art: this book sheds light on the origins of present-day aesthetic offshoots of Japan.
There is a relationship between Shinto, the indigenous spirituality of the Japanese people, and nowadays Japanese contemporary art. This paper is alive with sympathetic insight into Electronic Art with particular focus on Hybrid Art and Device Art made in Japan.
The present essay's aim is to test the hypothesis that religion influenced an avant-garde, to call into question if a form of belief is embedded in technology, and ultimately to describe how tradition and innovation are merging in contemporary Japan. http://www.new-media-art-japan.jp
