a year before the nuclear acccident, the nhk held a photo contest for people living in fukushima's abukuma region.

thirteen years later, an nhk camera crew returns to fukushima to visit several of the sites where the photographs were taken. it's touching to see people re-inhabiting and re-making their landscape. it's a touching watch. (50m, japanese and english with subtitles)

In my early days of learning Japanese, our teacher asked us to go home and make hiragana and katakana flash cards.

Deeming index cards too boring, I instead made two "apps" for the Dreamcast VMU to help me practice my characters. 😄

"White Lilies," Mabel Royds, c. 1937.

Mabel Allington Royds (1874-1941) was famous for her woodcuts. This particular image was part of a series of florals she did in the 1930s, either of flowers in full bloom or dying flowers, which she found interesting to depict.

Although she traveled extensively with her husband, painter Ernest Stephen Lumsden, throughout India, the Himalayas, and Canada, she seemed to most enjoy depictions of flowers, children growing up, neighborhood animals, and other scenes of everyday life.

Her woodcuts are technically classified "Japonisme" as she follows the techniques of Japanese ukiyo-e woodblocks, but uses a distinct personal style in the images she depicts.

From the National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh.

OK, when you really really need 80's Japanese citypop/synthpop, it doesn't get any more intensely that than this…

The Roosters - “Dan Dan” (1981)

Live performance of a song from their 3rd album, “Insane”.

The Roosters were a Japanese rock band formed in 1979. It’s mostly the one lead guy, who I believe has reconstituted the band since their initial run from ‘79 to ‘88.

Their music is a mix of rock and roll, punk, blues, ska, and new wave.

Found by way of a couple bands that mentioned The Roosters as an influence.

I finished 孤独の罠 by Jokichi Hikage (日影丈吉), and I loved how it blends literary fiction and mystery, the characters being more important than the plot. It does start with a rather disturbing mystery, but focuses more on the psychology of the main character.

My priority is now to read Seicho Matsumoto and the Korean novels I have piled up on my shelves, but I’m sure it won’t be long before I buy another Jokichi Hikage!

#NowPlaying - japanese underground #noise heroes, one of the only official albums released while they were active (in the '90s, 20 years after it was recorded). the blown-out live cuts don't grab me here, though i love them elsewhere. the studio side from '69 gets way more play in this house, dreamy/folky psych that i don't think the band ever embraced again. great liner notes too, pointing at the kazoo parts as evidence of mizutani's fondness for #zappa. lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.co

@bookstardust well not in few days, I don't believe it. Maybe you can learn to comfortably read hangeul in a year or rather year and a half which is not bad at all compare to kanji, but not few days if you want to be comfortable/fast in reading it I think. Though maybe you right I should have just tried learning it first, maybe it is not as difficult as it seems at first. I just feel like it hangeul puts too much strain on my eyes and brains and just make skeptical.

@bibliolater though it is nice getting boosts I think boosts are useless and kind of annoying even. because so far I frequently was getting quite many boosts from people with many followers but almost never getting follows. I think if you like someone's posts then just give him a follow. so because people boosting but not following I for myself decided to have "follow everyone I boost and not boost if I don't follow" strategy. I think many people are just boosting hoping to get follows from those they boost. still better than "favourite".
