Join us for an evening of fresh insight and cinematic exploration with Professor Daisuke Miyao as we celebrate his newest book, "Ozu and the Ethics of Indeterminacy." A leading scholar of Japanese cinema, Chair of the Department of Literature, and fellow of the Suraj Israni Center for Cinematic Arts at UC San Diego, Professor Miyao invites audiences to reconsider how films create meaning. Drawing on carefully curated clips from the work of Yasujirō Ozu, his talk examines how cinema can resist singular interpretation, opening instead onto multiple perspectives and modes of experience. What does it mean to watch a film without a fixed point of view? How do images shape not only what we see, but how we understand the world? Through the concept of an “ethics of indeterminacy,” Miyao offers a nuanced and timely framework for engaging with cinema in all its complexity. The presentation will be followed by a moderated Q&A, offering an opportunity for deeper conversation and engagement with Professor Miyao’s work. This event also marks a significant moment in Professor Miyao’s scholarly career, celebrating the publication of two major books in close succession—an achievement that underscores his dynamic contributions to the field of film studies. Hosted by the Suraj Israni Center for Cinematic Arts, this event is open to students, faculty, staff, and members of the wider community. We invite you to be part of this lively and thought-provoking discussion.
