Abstract:
In the summer semester 2002, the media design course offered the project “nihon”. The students were given the opportunity to occupy themselves with all different aspects of Japan, the japanese way of life, the japanese media scene, japanese culture (contemporary and traditional) or german-japanese crosscultural communications. From their experiences they then developed different works – sometimes art, sometimes applied design – in which they try to reflect what struck them as important, remarkable or simply fascinating. With “nihon” as an example of work we intend to introduce the media faculty and its special ways to a broader public in Japan.
