Outline
Cognition (interest, memory, and awareness) of disaster events tends to decay over time and with increasing geographical distance (Saito et al., 2022; in print). This phenomenon can be described as the spatial-temporal decay of disaster event cognition. As time passes after a disaster event, approaches to mitigating this decay inevitably become more limited. Even without the passage of time, approaches must be carefully designed in regions far from the disaster event due to the suppressive effects of geographical distance. This study focuses on media arts and popular culture in Japan, mapping their effects and exploring how these effects can be applied.
