Purpose
The fields that scientific researchers are focusing on in 21st century are expanding rapidly and vastly year by year. And though their developments are deeply concerned with societies and lives of the people, it is getting harder for ordinary citizens who should support them to understand the cutting edge of scientific studies.
Scientific visualizations are supereminent media for such people to understand frontiers of science and technology. And they are also important for researchers themselves to increase the knowledge and understanding about their subjects, too. Particularly, visualizing technologies for looking into microscopic worlds or deep space in the universe, and for reproducing evolution of the universe by the latest computer simulation have brought us astonishing worlds that were impossible even to imagine in the past.
Movies on dome screens that surround us give the feeling as if we are immersed in space, and spectroscopic movies take us into the screen.
We believe this is a good opportunity to introduce such scientific contents and technologies to lots of people, and we hope it will give a chance of exchanging information to producers and technicians. We will to host “International Festival of Scientific Visualization” to provide the place to present new visualization contents for movie creators.
