ATOPOS cvc’ new program, affective archives, welcomes Dr. Daphne Mohajer va Pesaran (www.dnj-paper.com) & d_archive(www.darchive.io), for a research residency and workshop.

The workshop How to reverse engineer a Kamiko 紙衣 , will involve a brief presentation of the research findings of the residency, the ATOPOS archive, and the d_archive. Next we will explore the process of digitizing historical garments. Participants will be invited to learn about the garments themselves as well as the process by trying to reverse-engineer one specific Paper robe (Kamiko 紙) from late 18th century to early 19th century Japan, using paper or other paper-like material.

We urge people of different disciplines such as fashion and costume design, theater studies, anthropological studies, 3d artists, museologists, archivists and conservators to apply for this multidisciplinary workshop.

The workshop takes place in the context of the commemorative events of the Embassy of Japan in Greece on the occasion of 2024: Year of Culture and Tourism between Japan and Greece.
