    Want to participate in a flashmob? Details below on the one happening in Shinjuku this Sunday (March 22). With this event we want to criticize the surveillance society which takes away our ability to trust in others. [Rule number 1] Bring a book of your choice, and read it out lout. It doesn’t matter whether…

    This past Friday night was the third edition of CGM, this time at Cafe Ratia in Harajuku — I’m sure Danny Choo will have a massive wrap-up post soon enough. I again showed up with my good friend CheapyD, and we proceeded to drink a lot of beer, talk to a lot of people, and…

    First with the bad news: if you’re hearing about the “We Love Magazine Library” exhibition for the first time, then you’re out of luck because it ended yesterday. I must apologize for not having posted this before — I had actually taken note of it before its start, but completely forgot to post something. I…

    38. That was the attendance for last night’s PauseTalk (Vol. 29), and I’m still not quite sure how it happened. I usually get an average of 15-20 attendees at each edition, which is a nice number — remember, PT is meant to be a salon-like event. The huge crowd also meant that for the first…

    Curiosity‘s “Light – Light” installation, first shown in Milan last year, is now on show at a Louis Vuitton store in Tokyo until April 5. Designboom only mentions that it’s at the Louis Vuitton store in Shibuya-ku, which I assume would be the flagship store on Omotesando.
