Ideas and thoughts - sparkling stars
Shutaro Mukai and Toshiharu Itoh very much regretted that Richard Saul
Wurman, due to his schedule, had already returned to America. The summary
of these four inspiring days highlighted all aspects of the wide variety
of the sessions. Watching, listening, thinking and discussing were really
what was expressed in the conception: a VISUALOGUE. Flesh reports recalled
the presentations. The wide range of speakers from Japan and from many
parts of the world gave an impression of the importance of quality of

The multicultural composition and multidisciplinary approach is a documentation
that the cultural and individual context is important. Shutaro Mukai
pointed out: We are flooded with information, so what should we change?
He said that the answer is difficult to define, it can not be one word
definition. All as life is a dynamic process. To reach quality-in other
words, beauty and aesthetics-needs taking into consideration different
aspects, different routing and different steps.
They include "Clarity", "Creativity", and "Joy
/ Humor", and the subthemes Identity, Sustainability, and Education
are with many other aspects like the sparkling stars above mount Fuji
a complex approach to reach the goal: Quality of Information. (HL)
