  • PangeaSeed

    Tokyo-based eco collective PangeaSeed is organizing an event, “No Fin No Future,” on July 30 at SuperDeluxe. From the official website: PangeaSeed will feature a special screening of the award winning documentary Sharkwater. The event will be supported by special guest speaker, Kim McCoy of the Shark Angels, guest bands, and DJ. As well as…

  • PauseTalk Vol. 32

    Another PauseTalk (Vol. 32), another great audience. Seems like the new plan to reserve Cafe Pause for the event was justified since we again ended up with a 30+ crowd, and the new table arrangement — a pixelated triangle, courtesy of the cafe’s manager — made for a better round-table discussion. We covered quite a…

  • Naked Tokyo 2009

    This year’s edition of the “Naked Tokyo” exhibition is happening soon, a one-night event on June 26 at SuperDeluxe. It’s of course very nice to see that a few friends and PauseTalkers are participating, and I do look forward to checking out all the works (I’ve unfortunately missed passed showings). Above, a photo by Carla…

  • Carl Randall's Portrait Project

    Carl Randall is a Ph.D. student in oil painting at Tokyo National University of Arts, and he’s looking for volunteers for a new project. He’s currently on the lookout for hundreds of people to pose for portraits that would appear on large canvases, and later exhibited in Tokyo and London. If interested, you can get…

  • Cadavres Exquis

    Designboom has a rather nice gallery of shots from Jules Julien’s “Cadavres Exquis” exhibition at the Diesel Denim Gallery in Aoyama. The show runs until August 2.

  • PauseTalk Tonight

    Just your friendly reminder that tonight (June 1) is indeed PauseTalk Vol. 32. Start time is 20:00 as always, and as I’ve mentioned before, the cafe will be entirely reserved for the event, so we should be able to accommodate everyone. Hope to see lots of you there!

  • Next PauseTalk (Vol. 32)

    People like to get early reminders, so here’s one for the next edition of PauseTalk (Vol. 32), which happens this coming Monday (June 1) at Cafe Pause. Start time is 20:00, and as I mentioned recently, the entire cafe will be reserved for the event, so there shouldn’t be issues about seating or taking up…

  • Cut&Paste 2009 Tokyo

    The “Cut&Paste Digital Design Tournament 2009” is happening this Saturday (May 30, 17:00-20:30, 2,000 yen) at Womb in Shibuya. Tokyo is one of the last stops of this international competition, and it should be quite the event — just have a look at the participants listed below. There’s plenty more info at the event’s official…

  • Museum Paper

    Self-published Swedish magazine Museum Paper is having a launch tomorrow night (May 29, 19:00-21:00) at NOW IDeA by Utrecht in Aoyama. They even promise a “special Museum Paper drink,” so I’m there.

  • PKN vs. PT

    Well, sort of. For tomorrow night’s edition of PechaKucha Night in Tokyo (Vol. 62) at SuperDeluxe — or tonight (May 27), depending on when you read this — I helped Tomoko curate by suggesting a few presenters who, ahem, just so happen to be PauseTalkers (with one exception). Names you will recognize if you check…
