video: urbanized typeface
„There are many fonts named as the city name inside the machintosh PC. Almost these are made by Apple Co., Ltd. The reason why the city name is just quite image of characters shape or the place where the person lives who made the font. So there is no reality or necessity. Then I made the font that has a reality greatly named "Shibuya2008". Which each characters shape are made according to the figure of the city Shibuya, Tokyo. First, I was running around Shibuya with a GPS data logger by bicycle. The running course was the shape of font characters. The GPS logger recorded global positions once per a second as a data of number. By doing so, I made all of characters (A~Z, numbers and symbols). The characters are no existence but quite huge. Then I was converted to GPS's digital data into vector data(.pdf) by using a programming. Each figure of characters are imported to software of font and finally these are became a useful font completely and also it has a reality.
My main subject of making is researching "graffiti". Also cityfont project is one of a reseach about graffiti. I always aim to catch the essence of graffiti through my own work.“

video: burj dubai basejump
„Oh, wow. Apparently, in May, a Brit and a Frenchman snuck on to the under-construction Burj Dubai and BASE jumped from it at 650 meters up. Now, there's video available of their infiltration, jump and subsequent escape. The footage from up top and the jump is just incredible stuff. Although my favorite part of the video may be the footnote at the end; wait for it, it's worth it.„

„So this is an ad, despite the rough-edged, Impact-laden amateur patina it has been given by the marketing firm hired to create it. Nevertheless, the thing they have created is interesting: a computer with 24 256GB Samsung SSD drives chained together in one RAID device, making for some very quick application launching. You could build the same machine yourself for around $23k—and that's just for the drives.“
