Kuramae area was more or less spared by #tokyo bombings. As a result, the depth of time is more visible, more reachable. For a couple of years, workshops have flourished, then cafes, then boutiques, … all of this until the real estate pressure creates a new “bombing” in a near future.

Photography. A black and white photo of a dark cat hanging from almost invisible white curtains, at the very top of a window pane. She has her arms and legs outstretched and seems to have discovered something interesting outside in the garden. (By the way, the window next to it is a bit open).
Info: It is the fabulous cat, named "Sasuke, the Second", of the artist, which he photographed for a photo book while hiding, climbing and playing. The cat also accompanied him everywhere on trips until he fell into a coma for 20 years (in 1992) after a fall and died in 2012. Sasuke was about thirteen years old when the accident occurred.

The oldest example I’ve seen used as an example of a design system is the signage and visual design of the #tokyo #olympics 1964

Since a lot of the visitors where unfamiliar with Japanese they needed to create signs and messages that were understood by everyone. The fact that they did this in a cohesive way is why we describe it as a system of design.

This one is shaped like a pencil and makes for excellent doodling. It uses uni jetstream refills which are really nice (for a ballpoint).

The back of the pen screws in against the the cartridge so it's really snug and doesn't wiggle around at all when drawing.

Sketched some monster heads to test it out!

Protesters demand that #Japan save 1000s of #trees by revising a design plan for a popular #Tokyo park

Story by Mari Yamaguchi, September 17, 2023

"#Protesters in Tokyo formed a #HumanChain Sunday to demand the government save thousands of trees by revising its plan to redevelop a popular downtown park.

"Demonstrators, many wearing green shirts and holding up signs saying, 'Save Jingu Gaien,' demanded the Education Ministry take action even though the landowner is one of its agencies.

"#Tokyo Gov. Yuriko Koike approved the plan in February, a move that would allow #developers — real estate company Mitsui Fudosan, Meiji Jingu shrine, Itochu Corp. and the ministry-affiliate Japan Sports Council — to build a pair of 200-meter (650-foot) #skyscrapers and an 80-meter (260-foot) tower.

"That would require cutting down nearly 3,000 trees at #JinguGaien, one of Tokyo's most historic and beloved #green areas. The plan would also raze and rebuild a historic baseball stadium where Babe Ruth played and change a rugby field to one with artificial grass.

"Also at stake are the well-known 150 #gingko trees lining a century-old promenade built to commemorate Emperor Meiji, the great-grandfather of Emperor Naruhito. Critics and environmental activists say the gingko trees will be under threat from any construction right next to them.

"'I just had to come and do something to stop tree-cutting that could start this month,' said Nahoko Shirakawa, holding a handmade sign. 'I cannot just sit around and see the demise of 100-year-old gingko trees.'

"Rochelle Kopp, a movement leader who operates a Tokyo management consulting company, said the ministry should protect the Gaien as a #NaturalCulturalHeritage site. She said the ministry also should designate the area as a scenic site as a way of protecting it."

An evening view of the front of a restaurant on Araki Street in Yotsuya, Tokyo. The older wooden building is lit from within with warm light; the sky above is dim and starless. An unlit stone lantern stands next to a wiry pine tree in a tiny fenced-off front yard. Two female figures in traditional attire pass each other at the entrance of the restaurant, one entering, one exiting. The person leaving is looking the opposite way down the street. On the second floor, the shadow of a third female figure falls across the rice paper screen in the window.

Answer: #Tokyo !

The fact that families don't have the huge expense of car ownership goes a long way to making it affordable.

"[Tokyo's] systems of public transportation make traveling from one section of this enormous city to another both possible & comfortable. Tokyo is one of the few major cities where one does not want to own a car."
—Donald Richie, 1999

Station in Motion・動く人々
I always like taking pictures at this Akihabara Sobu Line platform, because it has really good natural light. This is a long exposure to show the dynamic movement of people getting on and off the train.
私はいつもこの秋葉原総武線のホームで写真を撮るのが好きだ。これは、電車に乗り降りする人々のダイナミックな動きを表現するための長時間露光だ。

Long exposure of people getting on and off a train.

@mhoye instead, #MassMobility can only be achieved with affordable #MassTransit which requires afforable, accessible and useable #PublicTransport.

And the existance and mainenance of it does benefit everyone - including those that can't or don't want to use public transport.

Look at #Tokyo, #Singapore and #Hongkong where owning a car is more of an exception than norm and it's more of a burden than necessity...

Apparently can just buy 3-D maps of train lines in vending machines. (I really need to go back to #Tokyo.)

Umeko believes to have caught Torio redhanded shoplifting. Torio however is a performance actor and the act of stealing is part of his research. The young people's encounter sets something in motion and they embark on committing crimes in #Tokyo's labyrinthine #Shinjuku neighbourhood. #NagisaŌshima's Diary of a Shinjuku Thief (1969) ☞ https://write.underworld.fr/settima/xin-su-ni-bang-ri-ji-1969

It looks hot along the Tama River because it was hot.

Douze heures dans la ville. Cà phê sua sur les lèvres. Les yeux grands ouverts et toujours la question « Et si… c’était là ? » Pas de réponses, que des intuitions. Un banh mi pour réfléchir ou pour oublier, on ne sait jamais vraiment. Taxi vers l’aéroport, le bouillonnement de la nuit sur les trottoirs de Ho Chi Minh en traveling. Encore quelques heures et puis retour à la maison… #tokyo

Morceau de carte ancienne peinte sur un mur patiné par les heures et les souffrances successives. En dessous une horloge pour l’heure de Tokyo et une cabine téléphonique vide en bois. Les téléphones ont été enlevés. Ils sont maintenant dans les mains. Il ne reste plus que le désir d’une nostalgie.

A single oarsman pilots a small boat loaded with cargo beneath a tall curved bridge spanning the Sumida River. Above, scattered pedestrians pause to look down toward the water or up at the night sky (which is populated by a field of stars, but no moon). Beyond, warm lights glow in the windows of shadowy houses on either side of the river; the still surface of the water reflects these orange lights and the blue of the evening sky. Further down the river, another boat glides across the water, and a second curved bridge stands on the horizon. The boats, the bridge, the pedestrians, and the houses are all reduced to dark silhouettes by the gloom of the night
