文化庁メディア芸術祭賞
We we’re very honored to have Hifana’s video for Wamono recieve a 優秀賞 (excellence prize) in the 文化庁メディア芸術祭 (Department of Cultural Affairs Media Arts Festival), and to attend the awards ceremony this Wednesday. This ceremony was judged and attended by some of Japan’s most elite creators including absurdly high arts / cultural figures such as Yanobe Kenji, Tosa Nobumichi of 明和電気, game creator Yu Suzuki, Hosoda Mamoru, etc. The index of prize winners can be found here, and specific detail of Wamono here, where they keep referring to +cruz, as クロス・クルーズ (cross cruz) which, if you know Eric, is completely hilarious in itself because literally no one has ever gotten his name right, but he’ll never drop that symbol off of it.
