Report for September 2012 (6th month of research)
September was a very active month in regard to various events I organized and participated.
As first, I co-organized (together with Ph.D. student at Leiden University, and TUFS Prof. Iwasaki Minoru's former research student, Martin Roth) two events about post-Fukushima Japan. The first was held on September 12 in Leiden University College in the Hague. We showed a film "Radioactivists" and after the screening had a discussion with students. On September 17, we organized a whole-day-workshop: "Sōteigai: Alternative Politics and Academic Intervention after 3.11", as a part of VICI Project by Prof. Chris Goto-Jones. Among prominent guests were Prof. Dr. Steffi Richter from Leipzig University (that I had an honour to be introduced several years ago by Prof. Iwasaki, and Dr. Manuel Yang, a writer and activist - who was invited to WINC at TUFS in 2011, and chaired my panel at Kobe Cultural Typhoon in 2011.

It also prompted me to pay attention on Kato's writings on "gensō" and "bakemono", as well as on "yūrei" (I watched DVD "Shikashi soredake dewanai. Katō Shūichi - yūrei to kataru" (Ghibli gakujutsu library, 2009. by Sakurai Hitoshi, last docum
