Oprettelsesdato / 2017 / Marts
- Yamate Dori gate, Shinagawa-ku
Unexpected wooden gate at west end of main street, just northeast of Shimbamba station. Wayfaring for a new art gallery, routed through Shinagawa station, intending on train 2 stops south, but mistakenly got trapped on the express service to Haneda Airport. Rode circle back and used smartphone to navigate through a tidy neighbourhood, definitely few non-residents in the area. (Yamate Dori gate, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan) 20170330 - Golden Gate Bakery
Assessed egg tarts warm out of oven as very good, but maybe not worth a 45 minute wait, unless you're with family and friends that you haven't seen in a while. A shared experience. (Golden Gate Bakery, Chinatown, San Francisco, California) 20170319 - Ueno Park
Bloom of Cherry Blossoms attracts many Japanese to Ueno Park. so space is measured off with tarpaulins underneath, to allow visiting groups to socialize, picnic (and drink alcohol). Tradition of removing shoes is preserved even outdoors. Large garbage bins have been placed nearby, with signs to reduce confusion about sorting. (Ueno Park, Taito, Tokyo, Japan) 20170325 - Kosuka Kanechika Gallery
Noritaka Tatehana (2017) Camellia Fields, an installation of hand-painted brass cast flowers spread out in a 3-metre circle. In background, some of the Embossed Painting Series. Artist came to fame as exclusive shoemaker for Lady Gaga. Exhibition is new, on the fifth floor of the Terrada Art Complex, which still operates as warehouse storage for valued artifacts, including fine art. Location should gradually attract more visitors. (Kosuka Kanechika Gallery, Terrada Art Complex, Higashi-Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan) 20170330 - Toronto Pearson T1
Light snow falling on arrival in Toronto is a contrast to the bright spring weather in Tokyo inviting cherry blossoms. Attempting to not enter Eastern Time, with outbound flight less than 48 hours away. (Toronto Pearson International Airport, Ontario) 20170330 - Johnson Pier, Half Moon Bay
Noon is too late to buy fish right off the boat, but signs indicate that regulars must come to the harbor earlier for ultra freshness. (Johnson Pier, Half Moon Bay, California) 20170321 - Sony Building, Ginza
Last days before Sony closes building, and creates a temporary Ginza Sony Park. Multi-level floors spiralling up are mostly vacant, with visitors encouraged to post leaf-shaped stickers on top of wall drawings. Architectural heritage of 1966 concrete brutalist style will be lost, with even denser structures in one of the world's most urban neighbourhoods. (Sony Building, Ginza, Tokyo, Japan) 20170327 - Pigeon Point Light Station
Day trip, no wedding, no funeral. (Pigeon Point Light Station, Pescadero, California) 20170321 - Golden Gate Bakery
Reputed as city's best egg tarts, they had better be pretty epic for the line to shake across the sidewalk on Grant Avenue. AHI had never been here when they store hadn't already run out of supply. Sunday meeting should have full inventory. (Golden Gate Bakery, Chinatown, Dan Francisco, California) 20170319 - Nippori Zakuro
Uzbeki food expected from online reviews, sitting on the floor and eating from dishes served on low table was not. Well prepared food was enjoyed, unlimited quantity lunch wasn't tested. Waitress accommodated requests to avoid dairy ingredients. Welcome surprise of Oriental, not Asian cuisine, in Tokyo. (Zakuro. Nippori Village, Tokyo, Japan) 20170325 - Shibuya Station Block
From Shibuya Hikarie 8th floor, view of redevelopment east of rail tracks in progress for completion by 2020 Olympics. New East Building will have 7 floors underground, and 46 above grade. Crosswalk may eventually look like the scatter crossing on the other side of the tracks, as pedestrians can move to another other corner while traffic lights count down a short period for priority. (Shibuya Station Block East Building under construction, Tokyo, Japan) 20170326 - Vesuvio Cafe
Need more practice on the art of wasting time and chilling. Walked around Chinatown and saw the Chinese Historical Society, now tired. Headed out into North Beach, so joining the Beat generation seemed natural. Ginger beer and green tea available. (Vesuvio Cafe, Columbus Avenue, North Beach, San Francisco, California) 20170319 - SFO Gate G91
Clare Rojas (2008) Blue Deer, oil and ink on wood, over a usual Air Canada Gate G91 . Flying San Fran to Toronto direct today, originally alongside DY on free ticket via Montreal. Delay to YUL of 25 minutes with a 53 minute connection including immigration would probably miss, so she's on a high probability standby direct, too. Her luggage is checked with me, so it's easy for her to just walk on. (San Francisco International Airport, International Terminal) 20170322 - Cantor Center, Stanford
Claes Oldenburg (1977) Soft Inverted Q, is inside the Cantor Center courtyard. Leisurely California weekend, still jet lagged after a week on the west coast. (Cantor Center for the Visual Arts, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California) 20170318 - Tokyo Institute of Technology, Ookayama
Service Systems Science symposium Gary S. Metcalf presentation bridges autopoiesis and artificial intelligence futures. What does a honking car mean to an autonomous cars? Unembodied cognition may interpret things differently. (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Ookayama, Japan) 20170329
