Been thinking of myself as a robot all day. It started when I was on the underground train, watching the morning commuters mechanically flow into one direction. I lifted myself to a birds eye point of view, and fast forwarded the scene:
Commuters, like blood cells, made a stream flowing to a city, that is a heart, who pumped energy in the […]

Between spare minutes in the office, I sent a book to a publishing company.

The 28-page picture book is called Santa Ponta’s Journey, written by me in Japanese and English and illustrated by Yoko (my brother’s girlfriend, most imaginative, charming friend). It’s taken us years to come this far, a gradual metamorphosis to put together a […]

Grand Theft Auto is an online multi-player reality game that looks like this:

You become part of a story in a make-belief NYC, stealing and driving cars, helicopters, boats, shooting guns, swimming, jumping, climbing, making phone calls, or even watching TV in hotel rooms. Crazy as it sounds, you can entre a CG hotel room, […]

The recent cyclone in Burma has lead me to search more about climate change, which has lead me to the website Treehugger, which has lead me to this page, which has lead me to this map.

Dreamt of watching a movie with my grandparents and my mother. My heart was chirping with excitement of being together, I could tell they were happy too. Nana (I called grandma ‘nana’) taught me piano, I could play effortlessly, it felt sensational. Granddad watched us and […]

There’s this Chinese girl with a small round face that ride on the same bus every morning. I glance over but pretend not to see her. 
The Chinese believe it takes 9 life cycles (let me know if I’m wrong) to develop a relationship, until two people are born as family members, a couple, or as close friends. In the beginning […]

In regards to the question “is it morally right to cut the tube of a brain dead patient?” 司馬遼太郎 & 井上ひさしsays:
“It was the job of scholars, philosophers and religious leaders to debate and come up with an answer to what ‘death’ is. Because the roles of such thinkers have been overlooked by society, doctors […]

My analytical mind has been busy trying to pin point what lead to the still recent break up with Tyler and my band. Interestingly, there’s also been a few rough waves with bands and friends around me.
