The 1st Symposium on Knowledge, Art and Cultural Informatics

 The 1st Symposium on Knowledge, Art and Cultural Informatics

 With the rapid developments in digital and information environments these days, many cross-disciplinary academic researches have also been conducted with “information” and “digital” aspects in mind. This trend has even become more prominent within tertiary education and research activities, giving rise to educational programs or courses and faculties related to the information and digital fields.

 There is an increasing demand for opportunities where academic exchanges can be made between graduate students and young researchers through such curricula that provide new research topics in line with the present time.

 Thus the Symposium on Knowledge, Art and Cultural Informatics was created in order to provide a place for presentations and exchanges, targeting mainly at young researchers interested in research on information or knowledge related to art, culture and other aspects. This symposium aims to provide an opportunity where participants from various disciplines can discover new research topics and methodologies through making exchanges with each other. We hope it will allow researchers to give developing and endeavoring presentations somewhat different from conventional academic conferences.
