From the front porch of the kura studio with cicadas chirping on a sunny day in Okayama come riffs and reflections about tatami mats revealing generational touchpoints, thoughts of friends passed on, reminiscences about american road trips with bands in renegade youth, sickness and healing, tree doctor tests, mystery old-timey radio shows, submarine films and evasion tactics from the signal corps.
Overall:home is where the projects are, planes can take you places you forgot (or try to) and phones can call anyone anywhere and the ¥10 is optional. Importantly, do you remember the number?

Recapping my intentions and annotations for Reiwa 3/2021 with my darlings. Oversharing and whatnot but we're all sorta friends, right? Lots of honestly and bits of laughter. Big dreams, tiny schemes, life admin to ukulele and most points in between.
Revolutions not Resolutions.

At the iconic Smilin Buddha Cabaret and Restaurant in Vancouver's downtown Eastside, legendary punk rock photographer bev. davies (sic) shows the photos in her recent "(Return to the) Scene of the Crime" exhibit featuring photos taken at his landmark venue between 1979 and 1983..
Dave uncleweed Olson -- with attorney Lindsay "Lazlo" Bailey -- asks about her process, the stories behind photos, anecdotes about the subjects and flashbacks about the shows.
Plus, they discuss:
* various parenting tips and stories with heavy metal warlords (Bruce Dickinson, Lemmy Killmister, Dee Snider)
* ideas for a book of bev's photos (form, cost, etc)
* the history of her remarkable calendars with Nardwuar
* some friends who've died (RIP Dave Gregg, Brain Wimpy Sunny boy Roy Goble)
* hollandaise sauce and skateboards ramps
* Icelandic knitters
Note: As a fan and supporter of bev's work, i've also interviewed her (along with new-school photographer and activist Kris Krug) at Northern Voice in a talk called "Building a Scene -- Rock n Rock Photos" and another interview to appear soon.

Ambient hang out and putting artifacts and items from the Kerouac "On the Road" exhibit in 2021 at Kobe, Japan – along with a dossier of items from Lowell, Massachusetts – into a plain white binder with sheet covers, while listening to a collection of hep songs assembled for Jack Kerouac's hundredth birthday by Bear Family records while in "Giggling Piglet Studios" in a historic kura storehouse barn in provincial Japan. No commentary, chitchat – just hanging out.
Thanks Matt T and Dan B.
