Abstract
"The authors present ZENetic Computer as a means of cultural translation using scientific
methods to represent essential
aspects of Japanese culture.
Using images—deriving from
Buddhism and other Asian
concepts, sansui (landscape)
paintings, poetry and kimonos—
that have not heretofore been
the focus of computing, the
authors project the style of
communication developed by
Zen schools over hundreds of
years into an exotic computing
world that users can explore.
Through encounters with Zen
koans and haiku, the user is
constantly and sharply forced
to confirm his or her selfawareness
for purposes of the
story. There is no one right
answer to be found anywhere."(p.205)
