Andrea Dworkin on Honeyee

I was very pleased to see Ebisu posting links to Andrea Dworkin and Germaine Greer on his Blog at Honeyee after Russell's and my attempts to introduce him to feminist thinking.

Also, if you happen to read this Ebisu (or you're wondering what I was trying to spell on the note in the photo), it's Kurt Schwitters .

The Dreaded Fish Monster From the Deep Doodle.

I guess a few days of intensive fish diet took its toll on JJ. I found this doodle on his bedside cabinet at the hotel in Tokyo!

Hey Benny. Thanks for the shot!

The second talk and signing at Tsutaya Book Store.

Teru from One Gram has kindly sent us this link to a slide show from the second talk and signing we made in Tokyo, last Sunday. Check the link below:

Tsutaya Book Store, Rappongi Hills, Vortigern's Machine Talk and Signing, 26th August 2007.

Teru drove us to the airport this morning and sent the dirty gaijin on their way. Don't we look happy!



We thank him for all is help over the last week and One Gram for their excellent hospitality (as usual). And thanks to everyone who turned up for both talk shows. It was great to meet so many enthusiastic people. Your support was really appreciated. Hopefully it will not be too long until we are back again.

Last Night in Tokyo.

Another busy day and seeing that we challenging for position of high end streetwear blog, what self respecting bloggers would visit Tokyo without posting a picture of themselves with the mighty Oka for Medicom Toys. So here we are!



And a very rare blog sighting. An elusive figure in the streetwear world and possibly even a western blog exclusive. The lesser spotted Ken Omura from One Gram in deep thought with JJ contemplating their udon side dishes.



We end with a last shot of JJ showing his sensitive fatherly side while holding Ken and Chiaki's newborn baby Rino. Now I'm sure that is a worldwide blog exclusive. Big congratulations to both Omuras.



We so on it!

Almost forgot. The link below will take you to a nice little photo montage of last Saturday's Amos signing at Tower Records in Shibuya. Many thanks to One Gram for posting that.

Boy do I look chubby in those stills...
