How do nations perform their identity on the global stage? This question lies at the heart of my current research in Japan, where I explore how Germany crafts and communicates its national identity at Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai through architecture, storytelling, and immersive experience.

We got tricked by science fiction into thinking a futuristic city is all about flying cars and crystal towers and hologram billboards but what it really looks like is nice apartment blocks, good mass transit, pedestrian zones with shade trees and safe bike lanes.

A 2023 edited volume that deals with a critical introduction to the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. Ed Chad Diehl writes that this volume engages w the shadow of a traumatic past. There is much to dip into in this book and it will encourage new discussion. It includes my own bio on Ozaki Tomei. 🗃️#ナガサキ

I’ve been in a very not so good headspace since a person very close to me got hospitalized. Today, we finally received a treatment plan, and although things will take their time, it feels like there's finally a small light at the end of the tunnel.

What strikes me about the hbomberguy vid (besides the fact that he dresses like the survivor of a nuclear apocalypse, what’s up with that) is how easy it is to rip off academics. A lot of these people have spent decades writing in obscurity and created a goldmine of analyses anyone can rip off

Silhouettes of a shore lined with people, two in a tree watching fireworks in a night grey sky. Only the fireworks and the red, Japanese lanterns light the scene.

A figure in black followed by a small black dog, walks through a snowstorm protected only by a golden paper umbrella. It is a stone-lined canal road near village homes. The sky is grey and the canal is a grey-green-blue color.

Well, I certainly didn't anticipate the year ending with Somertons plagiarism finally out and about but here we are. On a more serious note, it's really disheartening to see talented authors and researchers caught up in this mess…

Where can you locate visual materials on Japan? 🖼️🗾 The National Diet Library has a rich collection! Whether you’re looking for woodblock prints, books, magazines, or other published materials, the NDL Image Bank is a great place to get started! rnavi.ndl.go.jp/imagebank/en...
