The 26th Annual Japan Society of Image Arts and Sciences conference will 
be held this weekend (June 10-11) at Tokyo Zokei University in Hajioji.

The program features a symposium on the topic of "Image Technology and 
Literacy" (with the panelists Karasawa Hideyasu, Morioka Yoshitomo, and 
KineJapan member Kato Mikiro), and papers on such film-related topics as 
Kurosawa and the Bomb, the reception of Chinese films in Japan, war-time 
Hollywood musicals, several papers on animation, and other theoretical 
papers on moving image arts.  Recent experimental works will also be 
shown.
