Co-production with the Banff Centre for the Arts, Banff, Canada and Euphonic Inc., Tokyo "Iimura is at his best deconstructing and reconstructing the video apparatus. Elemental and elegant, these works confront issues of language and semiotics through forms of direct address. Incisively presented, this CD-ROM offers a new generation access to classic works of video art and theory" – Peter d'Agostino, professor of media arts, Temple University, Philadelphia Awarded, Director's Choice Award, Black Maria Film & Video Festival, Jersey City, 1998, and Bronze Prize, New York Expo Festival, New York, 2000.
