    Me and Max were roaming the streets of Kubukicho yesterday, and Max took this great shot of two police officers patrolling in front of a giant ad for SEGA’s new RYU GA GOTOKU KENZAN! game, the third release in their YAKUZA series.

    PingMag has a profile on Tomoko Sawada, a Kobe-based artist/photographer whose work I’ve been a fan of for a few years now. I absolutely love her photo booth series, part of which is pictured above.

    This past Friday night saw the opening of Alin Huma’s new gallery space, Ginza the Edge. The inaugural show, “Photography,” runs until February 29. It was a great turnout, and we pretty much filled up the relatively small space. The gallery actually takes up Alin’s apartment, and so every piece of “daily living” got removed…

    A few months back I met up with the travel editor of FOOD & WINE magazine, who was in town doing a piece on Tokyo. Salma’s article appeared in the February 2008 issue, and she writes a bit about what we did on that day in this part. After we had lunch at Maisen, we…

    The folks behind Hitotoki have created a Flickr account that includes plenty of photos from last week’s “Hitotoki Hitoban” event. It was my first time doing a public reading, and as you can see below, I am definitely nearsighted (I always remove my glasses when reading).
