  • Codex 49

    A new episode of my Codex podcast is up (49), for your enjoyment. Yes, that means the next episode is the momentous no. 50, and I do know what I will do — you can possibly guess if you know a thing or two about my musical tastes.

  • PauseTalk Next Monday

    Just realized I forgot to post a reminder that this coming Monday (March 5) is the time for PauseTalk Vol. 58, at Cafe Pause as always, with the regular start time of 20:00. Also, I’ll be adding all of the amazing photos that Michael Holmes has been taking at recent events on the Facebook page…

  • TOKYO X CREATIVES: Meteor Trailer

    A week or so ago I shared a couple of trailers for my friend Niko‘s upcoming TOKYO X CREATIVES video series, and here’s a third trailer, this time for the episode that will feature the gaming/clothing shop Meteor, located in Kichijoji. Niko did a presentation on the project at last week’s PechaKucha Night Vol. 89,…

  • Games I Play

    A round-up of recent games I’ve been playing and enjoying (you’ll find all of them here). Driver: San Francisco (PS3/360) — This is possibly my favorite game that came out in 2011 (or a close tie withForza 4). An absolute blast to play, with so many fun side missions, all focusing on driving and stunts.…

  • More Videos from the Ice Climbing Trip

    Here’s the final batch of 1-minute videos I recorded while on a recent trip to the Southern Alps in Yamanashi prefecture for some ice climbing (my wife, not me). They’re all embedded in this post, or you can go directly to the Vimeo pages (Falling Ice, Water and Leaves, Water and Snow, Climbing) — they’re…

  • 1 Minute of Pre-PechaKucha Night Vol. 89

    Here’s another 1-minute video for today, recorded at this past Thursday’s PechaKucha Night Vol. 89, before things started, as people were still arriving to the venue (SuperDeluxe) — it’s on YouTube too. You can quickly find all of my previous 1-minute videos here.

  • Codex 48

    After a month’s hiatus — due to my flu and then a nagging cough — here’s episode 48 of the Codex, for your listening pleasure.

  • Stream

    Here are two more “1 Minute” videos that I recorded while in our recent ice climbing trip in the Southern Alps (Yamanashi prefecture) — here’s the first one. These two videos are up on YouTube as well (here and here). In case you’re wondering why I’m doing so many of these, my plan is do…

  • Bistro D’arbre

    I will admit that I don’t go out for drinks that much anymore, and when I do, I find myself not really knowing where to go anymore (if I’m tasked with finding a place). With my good friend Luis Mendo in town this week — he’s working with me on some PechaKucha-related stuff — we…

  • Ice Climbing

    I’ve got a new “1 Minute” video up, this time recorded during our trip this past Saturday to the Southern Alps in Yamanashi, so that my wife could do a bit of ice climbing. I recorded quite a few “1 Minute” videos while I was there, and I’ll be sharing them over the next few…
