Art Among Millions
Digital art lab exhibition · Thursday, Sep 20, 2018 📸 / Google Photos The joy of living in a mega city such as Tokyo is that there is always something to do in whatever area of interest you may have. The downside is that there are always a million (seemingly so) other people who are…

Cool Sighs
It has been a little less humid and lot cooler the past week or so. Of course, more rain has come with that, but it also means that the fall blooms are starting to brighten up the paths. When you live in a place with actual seasons (despite people’s recent complaints that Japan doesn’t have…

My Choice, My Life
There is a delicate balance between just enough angst to stimulate creativity and maintaining the joy of contentment. When I think that I have achieved this balance, there is a sense of wariness and unease as to when it might all go off the rocker. I blame this on PTSD rather than skepticism or pessimism.…
