My short talk about a three-dimensional media literacy concept, shot by Thammasat University in Thailand on November 15 during the international academic seminar “Digital Media Literacy Movement: Glocalising Media Literacy in Cultural Contexts and Creating Communities for Building Connections,” is now available on YouTube!

It is a good book. The design is beautiful and stylish.
However, I should be finishing my own book, not translating a book written by someone else. But I took on the job for various reasons, including the commentary.
Buckingham’s bird’s-eye view and boldness are fabulous. However, East Asia, including Japan, has a relatively unique media environment. We have our own experiences and thoughts.
I will do my best to create my own work from now on.
I became President of the Japan Association for Media, Journalism and Communication Studies (JAMS). I was elected as the new President at the Board of Directors meeting of the Spring Conference at Nara Prefectural University in June 2023. For the next two years, I would like to regard academic society as one medium and do my best to make that medium exciting and interesting. I would like to do this with the help of the Board of Directors, the Auditors, and the more than 1,000 members. Thank you in advance for your support.

Two anthologies to which I have contributed have recently been published. In both articles, I discussed reflective workshops I developed, thinking about how we metaphorically understand platforms and AI. I thank the editors for allowing me to publish them.
I believe, however, that it is not enough to decode and understand platforms and AI but that it is necessary to find approaches for practical intervention by citizens. I intend to discuss this thoroughly in my forthcoming monograph.
