From the Mainichi Shimbun:

Today, a unique art project “aiD’en” (Association International d’Estampe Numerique) is fostering a new form of Ukiyo-e, using innovative printing and media technology

The exhibition is called: “Heisei-Edo Ukiyo-e Exhibition: Edo a la carte – L’estampe numerique”

(at the Museo Pictorico)

Seemingly a guy who writes a manga-styled comic about H.P.Lovecraft’s Cthulhu
mythos… where all the characters are cute little manga girls.

Including the alien/demons.

Encouragingly, it’s part of a web ring- the “HPL & Bad Taste CG” ring

They make “Digital comic books”- comics scanned in, shown a panel at a time, with actors doing voiceovers.

Much like 1960’s Marvel cartoons with their crappy 2 frames a second animation. All on DVD!

collectible figures you stack- insane. There is some kind of rocking thingy you stack them on as part of a game. I don’t know if they are popular or not…

These guys actually own the rights to 1984- yet why did I not know this? Where’s the 1984 schwag? Get on it people!

On view in the Völklinger Hütte, an industrial monument close to Saarbrücken, are some classics of multi media art by Nam June Paik and Bill Viola as well as works by young artists like Olaf Breuning, Sylvie Fleury or sofa23. “GameArt” invites viewers to play at interactive sound-video installations but only the very brave or masochistically inclined will risk electro shocks or lashings at the “PainStation” created by the media art group FUR. Arts.21 will present the most striking installations.Web link of note: GameArt @ Arts.21
