Month: February 2003

  • Influenza

    Yuko was diagnosed today with influenza. It’s a big problem right now in Japan, there’s a big warning, and it finally hit home. The strange thing is that I was sure that I would be the one to bring it home, since I’m in contact with so many kids every week, and a good number…

  • 2 Channel

    I’ve already talked about Japan’s infamous 2 Channel message board in this log, and here’s a link to an article that appeared in today’s edition of the JAPAN TIMES. My wife used to check it quite often for discussions on North Korea.

  • Geisha.5

    Yes, believe it, a new issue of GEISHA is out! Today being a holiday and all, I took the entire evening to create a new issue, and it’s just been freshly uploaded. As always, I played around with the shape a bit. This is is the street issue, and I hope you like it. Click…

  • Without Thought 4

    Tomorrow is a national holiday, and I think I’m going to go check out the Muji store in Yurakucho (the biggest one in Tokyo, maybe even in Japan, it includes a gallery and a cafe) to check the without thought 4 exhibit that takes a look at design work by Naoto Fukasawa. Looks very interesting.

  • Beautiful Day

    After weeks of terribly cold weather here in Tokyo, today is just amazing. We’re supposed to get temperatures up to 16, and it really does feel like a beautiful Spring day. I have all of the windows in the apartment open, and put out our futons outside to air them out. Feels great. I’m just…

  • Subvitamine

    SUBVITAMINE: Beautiful pictures, with a very nice and simple way to view them. I really need to learn some Flash.

  • This Is A Magazine

    A new issue of the excellent webzine THIS IS A MAGAZINE is out. Issue 8 is the beautiful losers issue. Next issue will be out in March. Reminds me that I have to get to work on a new issue of GEISHA.

  • Phil Brown

    Phil Brown directs TV commercials, but the kind that you actually like watching. Some of his Ikea ones are especially funny. Check out his website to see a few of them. The site’s design isn’t bad either.
