Tokyo Jazz Joints: Japanese jazz kissa as heterotopia

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Tokyo Jazz Joints: Japanese jazz kissa as heterotopiaTokyo Jazz Joints is an audio-visual project documenting Japan’s jazz listening spaces (jazu kissa). Interwoven with a personal account of a visit to the legendary Basie, this paper will introduce and contextualise the Tokyo Jazz Joints project, and propose that jazu kissa can be considered as examples of heterotopia as conceptualised by Foucault (1967).
