    I’ve given the keys to the place to Jesper, so he should be popping up sometime soon. The posts by him will feature the following logo: Hope you enjoy his posts, which will bring the world of design (and probably a fair bit of Japaneseness, as well as a post or two dealing with debauchery)…

    This is the image that I’m using as a desktop right now, which is a picture I took last Summer during my trip to Seoul. I’ve uploaded it to my server to share. The dimensions are 1280 x 960. Click here to download.

    I went and saw KILL BILL last night, and absolutely loved it. One thing though is that I was a bit surprised by the huge amount of Japanese used in the film, which obviously was not subtitled here. I was expecting some, but not so many scenes done almost entirely in Japanese, and long speeches…

    As mentioned in Tokyo Boy, I went to Planet 3rd in Shibuya last Saturday, and took this pick of the section of the cafe where you can use these Macs to surf the net for free. Nice to see that they’re all sport iSight cameras, which means that you could technically go there and video…

    I guess this is as meta as it gets. Paul has a pic on his IN-duce site of me moblogging him (with the result posted in Tokyo Boy here) while we were having a video chat with iChat AV. Interesting to see it from both perspectives.

    That article on Takashi Murakami that appeared in this months’s issue of WIRED magazine is now online. The byline is: “He’s high art. He’s low culture. He’s a one-man mass-market machine.”

    Both my Macs (17″ iMac and iBook) are now running Panther (Mac OS 10.3), and I couldn’t be happier. I’m still being blown away by the speed difference. Everything is coming up faster, selecting things is smoother, it’s just a joy to move around and do things. Really feels like I’ve gotten a new machine.…
