TOMAKI

I'm creating a printmaking piece to enter into Awagami Factory's printmaking contest in Tokushima. I've produced an A4-sized print, using a design from a previous print that was exhibited at the Okuno Building in Ginza.

Halloween 2019. I created a Jack-o'-lantern on the round window using sticky notes. From the outside, the pumpkin ghost glowed orange. It was during the time I lived in the Nakagin Capsule Tower Building.

Just visited Okuno building in Ginza to see たてもの新聞展. In the room, Nakagin Capsule Tower Building’s room is recreated, and visiter can see the two historical buildings are over wrapped.

Exhibition ends tomorrow, Dec 22nd, 2024.

I could get in SHUTL any other day during exhibitions. So, those of you who couldn’t get in during Tokyo Architecture Festival, check the official website and go visit the exhibition.

So, I tried to get in SHUTL’s capsule during Tokyo Architecture Festival. It was so crowded that I couldn’t even get to the waiting list. On Sunday particularly, I reached there 20 minutes after the opening hour. But still I couldn’t get the waiting ticket. I’m happy this place gets attention.

I’m thinking about living in San Francisco. Isn’t that nice? Then, I can go visit SFMOMA all the time. One of my favorite museum. They acquired one of the capsule unit from Nakagin Capsule Tower. I’ve got to go see it.

PDSもAT プロトコルも、ましてやLexiconスキーマもよくわからないまま参加したけど、面白かったですよ。開発者を囲むイベントだったようで、ユースケースや事例などの話が少なかったのと、パネルディスカッションがディスカッションではなかったのは残念だったけど、こういうイベントに現場で参加できるのは良かったです。通訳の方が、頑張ってた。翻訳アプリも。

さっそく、ダークモードを設定して、起動画面の星空を確認しました。

#Bskymeetup

I’m at Bluesky Meetup in Tokyo now. I see there are many developers in Japan participating and contributing this open platform. Amazing.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to utilize Bluesky account. I may be able to find an answer today.

I’m going to attend Bluesky meetup this afternoon. Looking forward to meet fellow Bluesky users.

Art books. SHUTL in Ginza.

Finally, I meet it again. One of the remaining Capsule unit which brought all the way to Wakayama.

Staying at this hotel in Ryogoku today. Thinking and planning how my personal life and project are going to be this year and forward.

I’ll visit Wakayama later this month to see the Capsule unit sitting in an art museum.

20 pieces of my art work is delivered. Mission completed.

Some of my works. Scanned for the archives.

Exhibition at Okuno Building in Ginza. My print works were there.

ひっつき虫

more than 400 panels

two capsule units from Nakagin Cupsule Tower building

Manabu-kun, the space alien

Helping Koe-chan to move out from the SHUTL, a creative space in Ginza. A week long exhibition just completed. Now it’s time to take down 400 photo panels. Look at this giganticひっつき虫 the removable glue!

Meanwhile, rooftop of GINZA SIX. If you like skating.

Almost identical shot but different day. One is so hard to take. The other is not.

The street was so crowded depends on the time in Ginza.

It passed 10p.m. in Ginza. The street was filled with people during a day time, but now it has less pedestrians. That means it’s easier to take photos.

One of the capsule unit from Nakagin Capsule Tower is sitting in front if GINZA SIX building. I couldn’t get in, but I can here a music playing.

Capsule showcase at Ginza Six. Playing music until Christmas.

Pre-opening of Koe-chan’s photo exhibition at SHUTL in Ginza, Tokyo. Nice music and nice people. I had a good time.

Photo exhibition by Koe-chan is starting this weekend. Looking forward to visit SHUTL and see her works.

The two capsules finally came back to Ginza.

It’s still there.

It was almost like a reunion of Nakagin Capsule Tower ex-residents. An exhibition and a talk event held at Okuno Building in Ginza, Tokyo. The creator of Myaku-Myaku, the official character of Osaka Bampaku, was the main guest of the event.

It’s a bit difficult to conjugate a Nakagin Capsule Tower here. This is also one of the project from Tokyo Biennale 2023. Utilizing AR technology.

Of all the knowledge in the world, you can pick whatever you want to learn. For me, right now it’s assembling canvas. I just learnt over the weekend. Now I want to practice more.

Coming soon.

I think I got a next travel destination. It will be either San Francisco or Wakayama.
