Real-time Love
PHOTON - Iwai Toshio Technology Playground 2001
recommended by Nishimura Yoshiaki


The reason why I don't have any objections in terms of
kid-compatibility this time may be the work'd inherent real-time
qualities. Not a single time have I experienced a delay in
interaction or an interface that keeps its user waiting in
Iwai's work, like it's often the case during time-consuming
downloads from web pages. In his works everything functions
and responses vividly, like sensitive musical instruments...

(2) "Composite" editor Sugatsuke's Tokyo Culture Diary
=================================================================

Just launched on the English page, here's volume 012 of RT's popular column!

text by Sugatsuke Masanobu


6/28 (Thu)

The third day of the shootings for Composite's 8/10 "Tokyo Celeb
Fashion" issue. Today we have Okina Megumi, Omori Nao, and Ikeuchi
Hiroyuki. The session in a room at the Capitol Tokyu Hotel starts
with Okina-san. She is slimmer than I had imagined, and has a
beautiful face with big eyes. Photo shootings of beautiful women
are exciting for the whole staff team, and everybody looks with
shiny faces at each new Polaroid.

(3) Out of Tokyo
=================================================================

RT Editor Ozaki Tetsuya's regular column, this time about the gradual
disappearance of central venues for media art.

Vol. 016: Canon Artlab's 'Retreat' (Part 1)


At the end of July I received a postcard from Canon Inc.'s 'Social
& Cultural Program Division,' announcing the office's move to a new
location. Giving up their centrally located Roppongi office, the
division's new home will be the company's HQ in Shimo-Maruko, Ota-ku,
explains the card. The card further carries a typical Japanese phrase,
reading "at this occasion we feel an even bigger motivation to
approach our duties with even stronger effort." But in reality this
is not how things work, and it seems like this move had in fact a
completely different effect. The two contracted curators of Canon's
"Artlab," Shikata Yukiko and Abe Kazunao, had to leave their posts'
at this occasion.'

(4) Tokyo Visitors' Book

The 11th artist that was caught on her Tokyo visit is Particia
Piccinini, who came to town for her controversial exhibition of
beautiful female models and not so beautiful mice.
