turning japanese

I'm off to Tokyo in a few weeks for a bit. Here a few things that have been getting me very excited.

The short for the new film TOKYO, a collaborative effort between Michel Gondry et al. Picking the futures scab and finding something real, all in the vein of the popular short-takes style of Paris, Je'taime and New York Stories. I love cities in all their messy, human, dirty glory. Watch it here. I never really click through to watch videos, but honest, it's worth it.

Cherry Blossom. It's almost too pretty to bear, like icecream. Gives me a cavity.


Scarlett Johansson's bottom in Lost in Translation. Kawaii!


Neon. And you know how I love that.



Bright colours.



Serenity.


The Kimono.


That's all for now.
