Every Picture Has A Story
Kamishibai (storyboard theatre)
It is a unique form of storytelling with a stack of storyboards displayed one by one, as the performer narrates the story, once popular in Japan as inexpensive street entertainment for children.
Inspired by Japanese mythology and folklore, the tale of "Snowy White Rabbit" revives this storytelling tradition in the digital format.
E-hon (book of words and pictures)
I met DALL-E, an image-generating model by OpenAI, in August, 2023. The quality of AI-generated images depends heavily on the human user’s ability to describe their mental image. As I search for my words and go back forth with DALL-E, the girl with okappa hair, hidden inside me, came out to play. As I looked through the generated images, I realized that every one of them had its own story.
