This year's "Technology and Mind" lecture was held to commemorate the "Technology and Mind of Japan, China and South Korea" exhibition, in which three masters from Japan, China and South Korea gathered together. Keisuke Fujii (Professor of the University of Tokyo), who specializes in the history of East Asian architecture, will be invited as a moderator, with lectures by the three masters, and finally discussions with the three speakers.

This time, the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art Museum Hall. Regardless of the long lecture until the evening, more than 200 customers came.

First of all, as a Domiya carpenter in Japan, a lecture by Mitsuo Ogawa, "Domiya carpenter's skills and ridge." He spoke with slides about the wonderfulness of old Japanese architecture such as Horyuji Temple and Yakushi-ji Temple, the anecdotes of his training period, the beauty of Japanese architecture, and the biography of miyadaiku.

Next is a lecture by Mr. Lee Eng Lei, who leads the repair organization of the Imperial Palace of China (Forbidden City), "Government-style old building construction art-protecting Forbidden City". Beginning with the story of the protection project in Forbidden City, where he is involved, he introduced a number of techniques handed down to the carpenter of the Chinese Palace. He explained the specific explanations of inking and engraving different from Japan, and explained the specialized contents in an easy-to-understand manner with a wealth of slides.

The next lecture is "Takumi Oki of Korea-Creating a Millennium Palace" by Mr. Shintaka of Korea. He is a leading figure in the construction of the Korean Palace and is known in recent years for his involvement in the reconstruction of Namdaemun in Seoul. After looking back on his own steps, he introduced the specific work details of Takumi Oki. He introduced the world of Korean carpenters, which is not usually known, such as a Korean-style logging ceremony and a scrutiny of the beauty of the heather eyes in the house for the colorful palace.

The final session was a discussion with three masters on the stage. Mr. Keisuke Fujii, the moderator, will ask each of the masters about the carpenter's skills, the most important tools, and the role of the masters. In response to the same question, the differences in culture between Japan, China and South Korea have emerged in the responses that reflect the characteristics of each country.

Li Yeong Lei of China introduced the world of systematized Chinese palace architecture, with his proficiency in classical architecture as an important role of the master. In addition, Chona was picked up as the most important tool in China, and it was explained with oral biography about tools.

Daikanna was the most important carpenter tool by Korea's Shin. He also touched on the change of Korean carpentry tools with his own experience in the field. The surprise statement from the venue that Korean carpenters could not only use pushes but also Japanese-style "drawing use" was surprising.

The venue was wrapped in a tight atmosphere when the Ogawa ridge in Japan raised the beautiful warpage of the roof as a highlight of the carpenter's arm, and said that the role of the ridge is to take responsibility for all the sites. .

At the end, we summarized the impressions of each other's architecture and technology. Japan, China and South Korea, which handles the same trees, as well as architecture and technology, as well as the challenges we face. Thank you to all the instructors who gave us valuable stories and everyone who attended for a long time.
