以藝術為名的地方創生：以日本山口情報藝術中心的發展經驗為例

Regional Revitalization in the Name of Art: The Case Study of the Development Experience of the Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media (YCAM)

「山口情報藝術中心」（Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media, YCAM）是日本「以藝術為名」作為地方創生成功的案例之一，以「與當地民眾和各領域專家『共同創造、一起學習』（creating together, learning together）作為工作」的基本理念，從多元角度探索媒體技術介入生活的方式、訊息作為文化基礎的潛力；並更進一步，透過「研發實驗」、「藝術表現」、「教育」與「社群」等發展重點，為地方培養新一代的創造性人才做出貢獻。本文透過研究者前往山口情報藝術中心進行田野調查，並透過深度訪談中心藝術總監会田大也（Daiya Aida），以及製作人竹下暁子（Akiko Takeshita），分析「以藝術為名的地方創生」的實踐策略，深入剖析YCAM以藝術為名作為地方創生的成功之道。

The“Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media”(YCAM) is one of Japan’s successful cases of regional revitalization under the name of“art.”YCAM’s basic concept is“creating together, learning together”with local people and experts from various fields. YCAM explores how media technology can be integrated into daily life from multiple perspectives and examines the potential of information as a cultural foundation. Furthermore, through a focus on“research and development experiments,”“artistic expression,”“education,”and“community,”YCAM contributes to cultivating a new generation of creative talents in the place. Field studies and in-depth interviews with YCAM’s Artistic Director Daiya Aida and Producer Akiko Takeshita were conducted to analyze the practical strategies behind“regional revitalization under the name of art.”This study offers a detailed analysis of YCAM’s success by incorporating media and art as a means of regional revitalization.
