At the Creative Reconstruction: Vision Formulation 2, 7^th Session, Kenji Kai, Chief of Projects & Support, Sendai Mediatheque, was invited and he gave a talk titled, “Vision (which comes later) Formulation – Vision is created while working (I suppose)”.
Keeping visual images of the disaster-stricken areas recorded by both the victims in Sendai and those in unaffected areas, each in their own thoughtful ways, was one of the activities of Sendai Mediatheque. When entering the disaster-stricken areas and taking videos of the scenes, he mentioned that many of the participants would wonder if they had the right to record the images.
In the event of a catastrophe or a major accident, it does not mean that only the person or party involved has the right to talk about it. He said that what is important is, even if you are an outsider, how you earn the support so that you are able to speak out and how you approach the person affected. (Akagi)
