“MONOKATARI” THINGStory (CGC25th MAT賞)

Yunosuke Nakayama + Kouki Nagahori + Waseda Univ. Hashida Lab.

“Mono Katari” is a device that outputs a story that you might have experienced by creating fiction that links a little with actual experience from the forgotten memory of our daily lives. How many events in your life you would remember? Having high amount of information in the environment around us, we can no longer afford to remember the trivial everyday things. A casual life experience, especially when you receive a cash register receipt, is more like a “process” than an “experience.,” and it doesn’t bring you any new surprises. But the receipt is full of personal log data. “Mono Katari” uses this information to draw your own another story that captures your imagination by looking back on an uninteresting moment.
