    You may be wondering why I haven’t posted any pictures from the various design events of this past week. Well, I took tons (300-400), and gave the exclusive to MoCo Loco, so that’s where you’ll be able to see them. They’re being posted over a few of days — here are links to part 1…

    The new issue of I.D. (November 2005) is all about Japanese design. They list the content here (and you can order it here). I contributed to a piece on Japanese design magazines called “How the Other Half Publishes.” Momus also contributed pieces, including one on Cosmic Wonder (“At Work in the Field Called Fashion”) and…

    From Tropolism: As you may know, I do work from time to time with Olafur Eliasson. I get all of the invitations to his openings, wherever they may be. They are so numerous, it is impossible to keep up. However, this one is of note: his first solo exhibition at a Japanese art museum. Olafur…

    Yuki created a bunch of cool t-shirt designs for this past weekend’s Wasedasai 05 school festival (which I couldn’t check out for obvious reasons). Seems like you can still get some if you know her personally — she explains her unfortunate past frustrations in dealing with some shifty readers.

    The Tokyo Art Beat t-shirts are finally on sale! The five available designs are by people you’ve certainly heard of: Jonathan Barnbrook, Paul Cox, Power Graphixx, Noboru Tsubaki, and Buro Destruct. If you were at the “Son of a Gun” party last night, then you saw me wearing the Power Graphixx design. They go for…

    Just got back from our big “Son of a Gun” party at Cafe Pause, and yes, I’m still sort of drunk, but I just want to thank everyone who came and helped make the event such a successful one. The place was full pretty much from start to finish, and it was so great to…

    As you can tell, I’ve been incredibly busy these past few days, and the site shows it. Been taking in tons of stuff (with tons of pics), but I’ll have to wait until Monday to digest everything. I’m heading out to OZONE Living Design Center in Shinjuku in a bit to see Jesper’s presentation, and…
