    Yes, PauseTalk has indeed been growing, as seen with the attendance at the March and May editions, and so after having a talk with Cafe Pause‘s manager last night, we’ve decided that for the next edition (Vol. 32 on June 1, from 20:00) the cafe will be exclusively used for PauseTalk.

    I had a chance to check out Daniel‘s exhibition yesterday — the one I posted about — and quite enjoyed what I saw. The best was to have him explain the meaning behind each piece — it was great to hear the justification for each element used. Unbelievably, he’s selling t-shirts for 1,000 yen —…

    Swedish illustrator Daniel Johansson, otherwise known as Venom Palette, will have a show this coming week (May 8-14) at the Design Festa Gallery in Harajuku. Some of you may remember that I featured a piece Daniel created for PKN Gothenburg a while back over at PechaKucha Daily.
