Resumen El resurgir de la experiencia emocional de los acontecimientos pasados es la razón tras nuestras evocaciones, las cuales pueden ser posibles aún si una vivencia ha sido olvidada: los procesos de recuperación de recuerdos parten realmente de omisiones, adecuadas para la imaginación. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo explorar estos procesos a través del cine de animación, partiendo de la experiencia personal y los objetos de recuerdo. Así, se pretende propiciar una “nueva oportunidad de ser” para ciertas memorias personales, destacando en ello diversos aspectos del habitar humano, la interpretación que el individuo da a su experiencia en el mundo, y cómo todo ello se manifiesta en el arte. Este estudio documenta también el desarrollo de las bases artísticas y técnicas de un proyecto de animación basado en las presentes indagaciones. Palabras Clave: Recuerdos, Persistencia, Transitoriedad, Habitar, Cine de Animación. 1 Abstract The resurgence of the emotional experience of past events is the reason behind our evocations, which may be possible even if that experience has been forgotten: memory recovery processes actually start from omissions, suitable for the imagination. The purpose of this research is to explore these processes through animation cinema, based on personal experience and memorabilia. Thus, it is intended to provide a "new opportunity to be" for certain personal memories, highlighting some aspects of human dwelling, the interpretation that a person gives to their experience in the world, and art as the manifestation of all this connections. This study also documents the development of the artistic and technical bases of an animation project, based on the present inquiries. Key words: Memories, Persistence, Transience, Dwell, Animation Cinema. ÍNDICE GENERAL 1.

  • Representations and Reality: Defining the Ongoing Relationship Between Anime and Otaku Cultures By: Priscilla Pham
    Representations and Reality: Defining the Ongoing Relationship between Anime and Otaku Cultures By: Priscilla Pham Submitted to OCAD University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Contemporary Art, Design, and New Media Art Histories Toronto, Ontario, Canada, April 2021 © Priscilla Pham, 2021 Abstract This major research paper investigates the ongoing relationship between anime and otaku culture through four case studies; each study considers a single situation that demonstrates how this relationship changes through different interactions with representation. The first case study considers the early transmedia interventions that began to engage fans. The second uses Takashi Murakami’s theory of Superflat to connect the origins of the otaku with the interactions otaku have with representation. The third examines the shifting role of the otaku from that of consumer to producer by means of engagement with the hierarchies of perception, multiple identities, and displays of sexualities in the production of fan-created works. The final case study reflects on the 2.5D phenomenon, through which 2D representations are brought to 3D environments. Together, these case studies reveal the drivers of the otaku evolution and that the anime–otaku relationship exists on a spectrum that teeters between reality and representation. i Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my primary advisor, Ala Roushan, for her continued support and confidence in my writing throughout this paper’s development. Her constructive advice, constant guidance, and critical insights helped me form this paper. Thank you to Dr. David McIntosh, my secondary reader, for his knowledge on anime and the otaku world, which allowed me to change my perspective of a world that I am constantly lost in.
