  • Abstract
    At Visual Arts College Osaka, we are exploring ways to use the computer as an instrument for expressing art. Usually, our students learn to create works of Web, CD-ROM and video content using the computer. We had been thinking about using Squeak for a while, however, it was not easy to introduce Squeak in our classes because of the issues relevant to the need of using the Japanese language in Squeak and the need of Japanese manuals. Fortunately, we met with Mr. Kazuhiro Abe in May 2002, who was developing a Japanese edition of Squeak. We decided to use Squeak in our class for 3 months aiming at making Squeak "our instruments". This attempt was experimental.
