The event combines presented papers and discussion with a roundtable conversation - with audience members as welcome participants - following the screening of two seldom-seen documentaries. Both films - "Hidden Scars: The Massacre of Koreans from the Arakawa River Bank to Shitamachi in Tokyo, 1923? (????????) (1983) and ?The Disposed-Of Koreans: The Great Kant? Earthquake and Camp Narashino? (??????????? ?????????????) (1986) - are directed by Oh Choong-kong, and both focus on the organized killings of Koreans and other ethnic minorities in the aftermath of the earthquake itself. The event is free and open to the public.

This workshop builds up on a previous one organized last May. Although the topic is not directly related to Film and Media studies, I believe it would be of some interest to some of you. Transitory Architectures: Dwelling in the Urban Planetary After Fukushima C?cile Asanuma-Brice (CNRS), Ramona Handel-Bajema (AmeriCares), Christophe Thouny (University of Tokyo), Ueno Toshiya (Wak? University), Yoshimoto Mitsuhiro (Waseda University) Thursday, September 19th, 2013 at 6pm The University of Tokyo, Komaba / Bld. 18 / Collaboration Room 2 The Japanese social critique Yabu Shir? recently claimed that the double catastrophe of March 2013 has made Japanese people foreigners to their own land, a situation that for him potentially opens Japan onto a planetary condition. This provocative and problematic statement will be the starting point for this second workshop on urban space in post-Fukuhima Japan. The relation between homelessness, transitoriness and urban dwelling was central to Kon Wajir?'s work on modern urban dwelling after 1923 Great Kant? Earthquake and still raises crucial questions for thinking the urban planetary. There remains in particular a crucial link to draw between the definition of urban dwelling places in terms of transitoriness and the contemporary banalization of temporary architectures of survival on a global scale, at a time when tens of thousands of Japanese evacuees still live in so-called temporary housing facilities. English and Japanese?Free Admission ?No Registration Required Organized by Christophe Thouny email: ct843 at nyu.edu The workshop is open to the public. While each participant will make a short presentation and lead the ensuing discussion between the invited scholars, participation from the audience will be actively encouraged.

Matsubayashi, K. Courdy, P. Rouy, Y. Kawamura), film scholars and social sciences scholars, to discuss what can be learnt from films on Fukushima disaster. Eight films will be screened (with French subtitles), and followed by three panels (in French, mostly) focusing on 1. Risks of radiation, zoning and displaced population 2. Filming and Documenting 3.11 3. Representing the catastrophe. Aesthetical and educational uptakes. We will also welcome Yojyu Matsubayashi (real. *Fukushima, Memories of a Lost Landscape*) for a master class, and Rebecca Zlotowski (almuni of ENS Lyon, real. *Grand Centra*l, Cannes 2013) for a discussion on nuclear workers in France. The conference is restricted to an audience of professional researchers, students and associations. The screenings and panels are free. May I add that reading the kinepanners' posts since 2011 has been very inspiring for me, and helpful to prepare this research program for this conference. So, thanks to everyone for the informations shared on films on Fukushima. Thanks a lot. I will spend one year in Tokyo as invited researcher at the University of Tokyo Center for Philosophy and as JSPS scholar, starting October 1st. So... I hope I will learn much more, and I will meet some of you in Japan.

Ando and Emoto star as Kyoko and Shuichi, two strangers from Minamisanriku who are burdened with the sins of their respective pasts: Kyoko slept with her boss in order to provide a better life for her family, but was instead shunned and driven from her home. Shuichi committed an unspeakable crime, but is now working in a Tokyo factory as he studies for college entrance exams. As they attempt to forge new lives from the debris of their old ones, Kyoko and Shuichi?s hometown is devastated in the 3/11 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami?

Now that the new one is officially open, I guess we have to take down the old one. Could you work with your ITS people to do that? I was also wondering if it would be possible, at least for the next year or two, to insert a redirect command so that anyone trying to visit a page beginning with http://pears.lib.ohio-state.edu/Markus/ will be redirected to the front page of the new Kinema Club (http://kinemaclub.org)? After 18 years there are tons of links to the old site or to individual pages on the old site. It would be nice if people trying to access the page from those links at least ends up somewhere on the new site. As for KineJapan, I was thinking of trying to make the official turnover October 1. I will begin by having the Yale ITS install the archive up to 2008 (which I have been sent). Then I will give them the archive between then and the date of the turnover. After that, I will need someone to give me an archive of the mail from that date to when the archiving resumed. We will insert the last archive on October 1. The question is how to do the turnover. As I said before, I think it's time to clean up the subscription list by having everyone resubscribe manually. What do you two think?
