As the concrete tasks, (i) the inquiry of the latest knowledge of digital visual anthropology, (ii) the exploration of the general knowledge of the visual anthropology in British-American contexts, (iii) the exploration of the Japanese history of anthropological photography, (iv) the development of the methodology of the public anthropological practice using the digital visual technology. My first finding is that anthropology with the digital technology becomes rather collaborative orientations including the replacing the relations of fieldworkers with informants with the interlocutor. Another finding is the possibility of social engagement of the anthropological knowledge with digital technology much efficiently and persuasively.
