THEME
[Orai] is a Japanese word that has many interpretations. It refers to 
comings and goings, communication, and contact, as well as streets and
traffic. About 200 years ago, a book titled Nagoya Orai was compiled
and published in Nagoya which was used as a kind of textbook for teaching,
writing, and development of literacy. Through discussions around art
and its inter-disciplinary studies, ISEA2002 NAGOYA [Orai] hopes to
provide an opportunity to create a new text and explore new forms of
literacy in the electronically networked society.
