STARTUP CAFE
The paradox between business and education (the application to society by MFA (Master of fine arts) than MBA)
Re-education for employees was mostly business education such as getting MBA, recommended by enterprises, and participating in communities. However, under low economic growth, we need innovative evolution rather than just consecutive work or routine. Kyoto University of Art and Design’s open graduate school started Prof. Osamu Ogasawara’s laboratory in the interdisciplinary program, poietics as the cross tech field where students can widen ideas regardless of business. I plan to review our one and a half year results in my laboratory with my graduate students and explore how we should learn new technologies like VR, AI, IoT, Robotics and Arts, and social eco-system. Moreover, I place a 3D photo booth (body scan) in the STARTUP CAFE EVENT SPACE as an example of our study about VR and demonstrate 3D digitization of your bodies for about 20 attendees of this session.
