Exciting! I'll be in Nagoya for a month mid-year, so I will look forward to
making my big-screen debut. :-)
Cheers,
Sean

Our correspondent has seen the future on show in Nagakute. If Japan is
right, it is a future running around on robotic legs QUEUEING outside
what appears to be an ordinary cinema, members of the audience are
invited to place their faces into a hole in the wall for a few seconds.
High-resolution digital cameras perform a quick scan from several angles,
and everyone takes their seats.
The animated film, with the quality of Shrek or Toy Story, begins
as normal but the entire cast is made up of walking, talking digital
replicas of people in the audience.
