    An exhibit going under the name Harajuku Collaboration Apartment 2004 will be taking place at the Laforet Museum from January 1. I recently read an article in TOKYO WALKER that featured lots of pictures of the displays and it looked quite interesting. Here’s what REALTOKYO has to say: Artist collaborations are far more than plentiful…

    A reader sent me a link to Torisukoshiro, the site of Koshiro Torisu, a design artist living in Paris. Very nice and colorful imagery throughout.

    I love Stop Motion Studies. The site is made up of “a series of experimental documentaries that chronicle […] interaction with subway passengers in cities around the world.” The stop motion studies are a series of shots that are slightly animated, sort of like an animated gif. This is the Tokyo page. Link via Momus.

    As you can see (and if you can’t, hit the refresh button in your browser), I’ve changed things some more.

    Also at the Spiral Character exhibit, these figures are based on a legendary Russian animated film which is now playing in Tokyo. From REALTOKYO: Driven by her desire to have a dog, a little girl uses a woolen mitten instead to resemble a puppy… when suddenly the mitten begins to walk! Shown for the first…

    I was able to take 2 pics at Spiral’s Character exhibit before someone came up to me and told me to stop.

    The Liquid Room is an infamous venue located on the 7th floor of a building in Kabukicho, and it’s closing at the end of the year. I’ve only been there once, and it was to see an Ian Brown gig. Here’s more info on the last event taking place there (from REALTOKYO): Still looking for…
