I’m told that the profile TRAVEL+LEISURE did on me is in the current issue (September 2007), although I haven’t seen it yet. I look forward to seeing how the photo, shot by Takashi Yasumura, turned out.

On Design for August 2007
Kyoto-based Karl Escritt is had created a new collection of t-shirts for Eno in Shanghai. You can see all the designs here, and it seems that there will be a full online shop up within a few weeks.
Yes, it’s been just over 1 year since I posted the first episode of my TB.Musica podcast series, and finally, here is episode 2 (and a link to the feed). For those new to this, TB.Musica is a music show in which I play 6 tracks from Japanese artists. This time I also added chapters, so you can easily skip to whatever track you like.

TABlog has a nice round-up of the latest generation of galleries to dot the city’s artscape.
Tokyo Wonderland
I mentioned Tokyo-based photographer Jonathan Savoie a while back (he’s from Eastern Canada, like me), and this time it’s for an online project called Tokyo Wonderland, which accompanies a book to be released in the fall.
Classic JAL Bags
Patrick Benny went to Haneda Airport yesterday to pick up some re-issues of classic Japan Air Lines flight bags, both pictured above. They were limited to 1000, so are probably all gone now.
