Maybe it's an appropriate time to be focusing more on aspects of Japanese design that aren't produced with consumption directly in mind... architecture; exhibitions that are free to enter; anything that can be enjoyed free of charge. A tiny toy track bike just seemed a ridiculous topic in a climate where some here are starting to worry about where the next meal is going to come from... sorry. Interestng times we're living in eh, as per the ancient Chinese curse. Sorry to hear that…

What Japan are you living in?
