Video: Nobuo Takahashi’s animated landscapes
21 Jan 2008
“Musashino Plateau” and “Japan” — a pair of 3D computer animations directed by Nobuo Takahashi — illustrate (in dramatic fashion) how Japan’s landscape changed during the postwar period of rapid economic growth. The animations begin slowly with the early postwar recovery years, but the pace quickens to a frenzy as explosive growth during the bubble years (late ’80s/early ’90s) transforms the cityscape into a chaotic, tightly packed jumble of single-family homes, large apartment complexes and high-rise buildings. In the end, development grinds to a halt with the collapse of the bubble.

[…] Musashino Plateau ha creado este video 3D, que nos muestra un resumen de cómo ha cambiado Japón desde la posguerra con un rápido crecimiento económico hasta el día de hoy… las animaciones empiezan lentamente hasta alcanzar un ritmo frenético, hasta alcanzar el frenesí de la economía (años 80 – 90), en la que se puede ver como se transforma en un paisaje urbano y caótico, con grandes edificios complejos de apartamentos y edificios altos. Al fin al cabo esto es lo que ha sucedido. […]

[…] ” 武藏野高原”和”日本” —是由高桥信夫导演的一对3 D电脑动画—演绎了（戏剧性的方式）在二战后的经济快速增长时期日本的景观是如何变化的。该动画缓慢地开始于战后的初期复苏，在疯狂的爆炸性增长时期—泡沫年代（八十年代末期/九十年代初）动画的步伐加快，市容变换成混乱的紧密混杂的单户住宅、大型综合性公寓和高层建筑。到最后，发展停滞泡沫崩溃。link […]
