Pedestrians in Ginza reclaim the road on a national holiday:
The thing I often find most disturbing about the city ofTokyo is that it just doesn’t seem to have any edges.
A Geidai door; an extraordinarily large baby (how large? this large); a section of roof at Charles de Gaul airport; some small cherry-flavoured desserts that looked really unappetising, not least because they’d probably been sitting around in this claw machine in a 50p shop for a long, long time; the moon, a plane and a hotel; a street scene in rainy Machida; novelty architecture in Ueno; stools in the painting department of Geidai; emerging from Ueno park into the bright lights of the city…
I’m half thinking about submitting some work to a competition, so I went to the venue – Birmingham’s Mailbox development – to check out the feasibility of a sound piece installation.
It’s not looking particulary likely because the architecture is just too tight. However, on my way out I did get some interesting random photos just by pressing the shutter as I moved through the space with my camera swinging in my hand.
