Japanese photography

There is a world beyond the urban dwelling of big names like Nobuyoshi Araki and Daido Moriyama. I have introduced Rinko Kawauchi before, and Rika Noguchi is also pretty big over here, but I recently -too late- discovered these two: Tomoko Yoneda and Naoki Ishikawa. Behold! Also, check out Banri, interesting guy whom I met about a year ago, and spent a yakiniku-and-late-night-doing-nothing-session with. I am grateful, mister Banri.

[To myself]

Believe.
That you can make the wind blow.
That it was written.
That every hunch is a guideline.
That every thought is one too much.
Believe you are the wind,
you and me.

Friday


Friday is an autumn breeze, the sunshine at 5.30 pm. It is a fresh hotelroom, a shower before dinner, and the smile on your face. Friday is like Saturday, and Sunday. It is the eternity that awaits us.

Tokyo Yamanote-line Fortunetelling

I've known this website (only in Japanese, sorry) for a while, but it was recently brought to my attention again by Japanese blogs Kissui.net and Paradox (has undergone some changes / cannot find the link back): 山手線占い. Remarkably accurate, if I may say so myself. But maybe that's because it's quite complimentary. My station would be Uguisudani, implying straightforwardness, individuality, love for freedom, and originality. Hmmm, why do I feel my ego is about to burst out of my skin? For those who are interested but can't read Japanese, give me your birthdate and I'll make a quick translation - if I can find the time of course. ;-)

Update: some other interesting / funny ones (in Japanese) are Philosopher's Fortunetelling (I was Lacan), and especially Japanese History Fortunetelling (I was Kukai).
