Theme: Orai 'Orai' is a Japanese word, meaning comings and goings, communication, and contact, as well as streets and traffic. Around 200 years ago, a book titled Nagoya [Orai] was compiled and published in Nagoya and was used as a kind of textbook for teaching and writing. Through discussions around art and its interdisciplinary studies, ISEA2002 NAGOYA [Orai] hopes to provide an opportunity to create a new text in this electronically networked society.
