  • MAHONOSEIKI (PLANETS, 2018)

From the 'Century of Film' to the 'Century of Magic'. It is more than 70 years since the invention of the computer, prompted by the Second World War. The 'Century of Film', in which people are connected by sharing the reality on the screen, has come to an end, and the 'Century of Magic', in which media integrated into the environment are ubiquitous, has arrived. Yoichi Ochiai, a 28-year-old researcher and media artist who has attracted international attention, brings to light the essence of the decisive changes taking place in the world today, from the perspective of both technology and art. What is the shape of the 'coming future' brought about by computers that have begun to interfere with things outside the screen? ......?[77]

  • digital nature: seitaikei wo nasu hanshinkasita keisanki ni yoru wabi to sabi (PLANETS, 2018)

A sufficiently advanced computational group is indistinguishable from nature--. Digital Nature, that is the vision and manifesto of the future proposed by Yoichi Ochiai. Postmodernity and Singularity are only one element of this 'new nature'. Human beings and society are undeniably being renewed. It will bring about a redefinition of happiness, of the economy and of democratic politics. The new paradigm starts here: ......! 'We can create a world without 'gates' and 'seams', replace standardisation with diversity, and transcend the obsessions of human nature, such as individual happiness and insecurity, through technology. All we need is a vision and a passion for the future towards which technology is heading." (From the Afterword)[78]
