Shin-Shin-Shinwa - new cosmo-techno-mythology is a dance-based outdoor performance of a researcher who wants to become Kamisama, or one of hundreds gods in Japanese, and an assembled object/structure called tensegrity, known by futurist Buckminster Fuller. In the performance, his body works as a component of the structure/world as one, which turns out an indigenous Kamisama of the street, or the place.

 

Chinese thinker Yuk Hui questions the universality of technology by using the term Cosmotechnics. He points out the current technology, which has been believed as universal, is rooted in Greek Mythology. If so, there might be a chance that the cultures geographically/aesthetically far from Europe can develop another variation of technology. Hamada believes, animistic cultures which are not rooted in the dogmatic religions and the survivors of those colonisation might have better chance to develop a new variation of technology which is symbiotic and non human-centralised but sustainable for us human beings.
