         <description><![CDATA[<div>The manga Oyasumi Punpun by Inio Asano is a coming of age story which touches upon themes such as the questioning of God, desensitization of the self and mental health.&nbsp;<br>I believe this manga to fit in with my research due to how it tackles these themes, using obscure and contradicting interactions and the portrayal of themes such as mental health and personal identity which are usually frowned upon by the Japanese society.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Visual kei is a fashion movement from Japan which is heavily influenced by Punk, Goth and traditional japanese fashion. It is mostly seen in J-Rock (Japanese rock) bands such as Dir en Grey and The Gazette.<br>I wanted to use this in my research due to how unique the style is and its close resemblance to Victorian fashion which is often used as an inspiration for other things in Japanese pop culture.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Both being strongly inspired by rococo fashion from the 17th century, lolita and ouji fashion are Japanese subcultures which are distinct by their "cute" aspects.&nbsp;<br>Lolita fashion began as a revolt against the expectations for women created by the Japanese society - women started dressing in overly cute outfits which allowed them to become 'unlikeable' to the male gaze. Ouji fashion is mostly known as a more masculine form of Lolita fashion, more inspired by the clothings of Victorian era boys.<br>I really find interesting how these subcultures came to be, impacting the Japanese society.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The song Rinkaku by Dir en Grey which translates to silhouette contains very strong imagery of a bird's fight to survive, with its lyrics and with the video projected at the back of the performance. With the lyrics <br><em>"As I flap my wings, I begin to sketch what I see<br>following the direction of my heartbeat,<br>which is playing for me a symphony of lies."</em><br>it can be seen how the strival for survival becomes 'useless' or evident as a hoax.<br>I was also captivated by the appearance of the vocalist, Kyo, in the performance, where he's dressed with a black veil, almost like a grimm reaper, forshadowing this death.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Noragami by Adachitoka touches upon themes such as mental health and religion. The concept of gods only being alive as long as a memory of them remains in society and the vulnerability of the human mind, where negative thoughts become nests for evil spirits which feed off these thoughts, creating vicious cicles leading to the downfall of the individual.&nbsp;<br>Mental health is not commonly talked about in Japan as people tend to stay silent about troubles they might be facing, with the fear to become an inconvenience to others. This manga shows through a different lense how damaging this is not only to the the inividual but to those around them.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>A manga by Inio Asano telling a story following the death of a girl through the eyes of "God." The recallings of traumas of those which caused her death and the complicated use of framings which make the story very complex to grasp at first glance.<br>I found this really interesting due to the narration style and the use of fragmentation from these traumas from each characters to solve the story. Not only that, but the strong symbolism of butterflies in the story which create a feeling of unsettlingness as you read it.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Compared to the other Dir en Grey videos I have used as research so far, this one interested me by it's different use of lighting and tones throughout the music video. Most Dir en Grey MVs have very dark themes, scenes and lightings, making Yokan stand out when put side by side.&nbsp;<br>I really liked the use of cool lighting and the use of transitions of the scenes in this video (although the transitions include a lot of flashing images, it is not done in an overwhelming manner).</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I found this manga artist's work really interesting on how he deals with movement in his work. His simplistic and abstract work is very different from most manga artist's, showing a different approach to story telling.<br>Although I'm not too sure yet if I will use his work as an inspiration for my final piece, I do find his work worth looking at to broaden my opportunities with the work I'm planning to work with.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>NieR: Automata is a game which inspired me on its dystopian plot which revolves around an alien invasion occuring on Earth which forces the remaining human population to seek refuge on the moon, relying on androids to fight and try to save the Earth.&nbsp;<br>Considering that I've been ispired a lot in this project by psychological horror, I believe that NieR: Automata relates to this topic due to its dystopian nature.<br>Other than the plot, I really enjoyed the character designs in which the eyes are closed, it reminds me a lot of Justice and the blinded eyes to judge equally; and since I work a lot with the imagery of eyes in my work to create a sense of paranoia and constant observation, I thought that working with the opposing concept would be interesting.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I really like how Nekojirou-sou is able to portray a story without any words and making it appear so vague yet meaningful.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Vegetarian by Han Kang is a book about a woman who begins having nightmares where she sees herself covered in blood, leading her to becoming a vegetarian in the hopes that the nightmares will stop. Unfortunately her nightmares continue and her family isn't supportive.&nbsp;<br>The book is divided in three parts, each from the POV of one of her family members and the reader gets to see how they cope with her slipping into madness (first her husband, next her brother in law and at last her sister).&nbsp;<br>I think this book is really interesting for telling the story through different POVs, allowing us to piece the story together. In my project, I want to use this concept of a different POV to try and figure out what is happening.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This song's lyrics and name were a major influence when i was coming up with the theme of my project. <br>Although the song sounds rather cheerful, the lyrics imply losing control of things and not keeping up to expectations:<br><em><mark>"Because now I only see my dreams in everything I touch<br>Feel their cold hands on everything that I love<br>Cold like some magnificent skyline<br>Out of my reach but always in my eye line"</mark></em><br><br><em><mark>"I fashioned you from jewels and stone<br>I made you in the image of myself<br>I gave you everything you wanted<br>So you would never know anything else<br>But every time I reach for you, you slip through my fingers<br>Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that I had planned"<br><br></mark></em>Since I'm planning on creating illustrations that illustrate some form of disturbance, I thought that the theme of "spiralling" would help me come up with some ideas.</div>]]></description>
