In 2000, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “Zen” by Yasuo Ohba (Computer Animation) with an Award of Distinction.
Zen deserves recognition for its emotional sensitivity, for its beauty and for its sheer poetry. This work entitled Zen depicts what I think and feel, inspired by the environments and events surrounding me.
