 This attention to atmosphere or ambiance of a certain situation constituted by various ingredients has a long tradition in Japanese aesthetics (Saito 2005). It was also the main point of the associationist aesthetics advocated by Archibald Alison (1757–1839). Today ambient aesthetics is garnering a renewed attention primarily due to works by Gernot Böhme who suggests that atmosphere should be the central focus of new aesthetics. In our daily life, we often experience the atmospheric character of a situation: tense or relaxed, cheerful or melancholic, exuberant or subdued, inviting or alienating, electrifying or dull. Sometimes a distinct character of a situation is intentionally orchestrated, oftentimes in a special occasion like a wedding or a funeral, with specifically selected music, decorations, attire, and choreographed movements, to name a few. Some other times, a unified atmosphere arises spontaneously when various elements making up the physical environment and human interactions and movements within it happen to congeal (Böhme 1993, 1998; Miyahara 2014; di Stefano 2017).
