In the podcast episode featuring tattoo artist and painter Senju, a fascinating narrative unfolds about the interconnectedness of tattooing and painting, particularly within the context of Japanese art. Senju's journey illustrates how these two forms of expression can influence and inspire one another, creating a cyclical relationship that enriches the artist's work. Senju's story begins with his initial foray into tattooing, which he describes as a pivotal moment in his life. Growing up in the punk scene in Sweden, he was initially drawn to tattooing through friends who had tattoos. His first experience with a tattoo—a simple abstract eye—sparked a realization of the permanence and beauty of body art. This moment marked the beginning of his journey into the world of tattooing, which he pursued passionately for over three decades. Senju's journey from tattooing to painting and back again illustrates the interconnectedness of different art forms. His story highlights the importance of cultural exploration and the willingness to adapt and evolve as an artist. By embracing both tattooing and painting, and utilizing modern digital tools, Senju not only honors the rich traditions of Japanese art but also paves the way for future generations of artists to explore the boundaries of creativity. Tune in for an inspiring exploration of art, creativity, and the interconnectedness of different mediums.

Mitsugu Sasaki, an artisan based in Iwadeyama, Miyagi, Japan, is the visionary founder of SASAKI YOHINTEN, a celebrated business crafting hand-sewn clothing from vintage textiles since 2014. Renowned for his mastery of traditional Japanese sashiko and boro techniques, he transforms century-old European linens and Japanese fabrics from the Edo to Showa eras into unique, sustainable garments that blend cultural heritage with global influences. After running a vintage clothing store in Tokyo's Shimokitazawa from 2009 to 2014 and overcoming a 2017 fire that destroyed his physical shop, Sasaki transitioned to an online model, earning international acclaim, including a 2024 Vogue Japan feature where Angelina Jolie dubbed him “Boro Mitsugu.” His commitment to preserving craftsmanship, evident in exhibitions across France, the UK, China, and New York, and his clothing's presence at Atelier Jolie, underscores his profound impact on sustainable fashion.

Quest'anno YouTube compie 20 anni! E con l'occasione ecco il link visivo per eccellenza: il video più bello di YouTube degli ultimi almeno 5 anni, parola di Edo. Lo storytelling e la capacità di comunicare rientrano proprio tra le 7 "abilità faro" che secondo Sahil Bloom saranno essenziali per navigare nel caos, anche nell'era dell'IA. E da creativi ce n'è un'altra che è altrettanto fondamentale ma che spesso evitiamo (sbagliando), ovvero la capacità di vendere e venderci. In questa puntata LINK, testeremo anche una serie di esercizi creativi per liberare la mente, riscopriremo le piccole gioie quotidiane che ci ricordano il valore della semplicità, mentre celebriamo l'ingresso della nostra newsletter nella top 40 su Substack in Italia.▫️Vieni tra il pubblico alla prossima registrazione live di Idee da Incubo con Fjona Cakalli?

"After hearing the sound piece 213 Asakusa Bell of Time Senso-ji Temple bell and reading the accompanying description I became fascinated by the sounds and the history of this and other bells in Tokyo. Particularly by the fact that the bell is still rung everyday and is mostly now not heard above the sounds of the city.  "I spoke to my friend Mike Ward and fellow musician from Longstone https://longstone.bandcamp.com/ as I knew he would be interested having a deep passion for Japan and Japanese culture and has visited Tokyo many times. He told me he had visited the Senso-ji Temple but had not heard the bell before. Mike recommended that I read The Bells of Old Tokyo by Anna Sherman https://www.panmacmillan.com/authors/anna-sherman/the-bells-of-old-tokyo/9781529000498 which was crucial as it too provided many more ideas for the kind of sounds we wanted to use.  "The overall piece I knew had to include the original sound piece in full as it is so full of drama. To this we added new sounds, echoing not only, the walking sounds on gravel, the bird song and the crash of the mighty bell sounds, but mixing its history and the contemporary soundscape in which it now exists. Sherman made me aware of the contrast of old time with its source in Buddhist mythology when in the Edo era, people were more likely to refer to the time using the animals of the Chinese Zodiac, for on old Japanese clocks, each number was associated with an animal. The hour before sunrise was the Hour of the Tiger, dawn was the Hour of the Rabbit, noon was mid-Horse and dusk was the Hour of the Rooster. It is said that the Buddha once summoned all the animals of the world to visit him before he left for Nirvana. Only 12 animals bothered to show up - the rat, dragon, monkey, ox, snake, rooster, tiger, horse, rabbit, sheep, dog, and pig. To thank them, the Buddha broke time down into a 12-year cycle and made each animal the guardian of a year. While he was at it, he also gave each of them an hour of the day to look after. "Sonic Heritage linking the present with the past through sound. Adding contemporary time sounds; the inside whirring of an old alarm clock, the slow drip of rain drops, the ticking of a clock, an arpeggiator regulated synth sound, highlighting the distance in time. Then with the lap harp plucked and acting as a bridge between the old and new world."  Senso-ji Temple bell reimagined by Stuart Wilding and Mike Ward.

This is a field recording that I made in 2014 of the ringing of the Senso-ji Temple bell. What is heard is walking on traditional gravel path up to the bell, hearing the monk approach and ring the bell which has been rung at 6:00am for 400 years. During the Edo period at the heritage site of the Senso-ji Temple time was announced with bell chimes.  These were “official” time bells called toki no kane (時の鐘) or “Bells of Time". This was an announcement that people were able to hear far away. The well-known poet Matsuo Bashō, who lived in Fukagawa actually thought he heard it and wrote about it as "sounding through clouds of flowers." A monk still rings this bell every day, at 6 o'clock in the morning. But since the bell is now surrounded by buildings, few people can still hear it.

March 20, 1703. Today, almost fifty men, scattered around the city of Edo, Japan, are waiting to die. They're all former samurai who had served the same lord – and they all carried out a deadly revenge attack in his name. Their story will go down in history as the legend of the 47 Ronin. Why did these men decide that to be loyal samurai, they had to die? And how did this moment live on for centuries and become part of the national story of Japan? Thank you to our guest, Professor John Tucker, author of The Forty-Seven Ronin: The Vendetta in History and translator of Kumazawa Banzan: Governing the Realm and Bringing Peace to All Below Heaven. ** This episode originally aired Oct 15, 2021.

Mokuhanga can be a standalone medium or combined with other artistic practices, offering endless opportunities for experimentation and creative exploration. In this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Karen Kunc, who has worked with mokuhanga for many years. She integrates it into her broader printmaking practice, which includes book arts, mixed media, letterpress, Western woodblock, and more. We discuss her early encounters with mokuhanga, her travels to Japan, and her experience printing with Akira Kurosaki. Karen also shares how nature influences her work, the importance of taking creative risks, and her perspective on mokuhanga today.

Toyohara Kunichika (1835-1900) is considered one of the last great ukiyo-e print designers of Japan. His evocative works helped shape some of the most significant prints from the latter era of ukiyo-e and burgeoning Meiji nishiki-e. I welcome back to the show Dr. Monika Hinkel, Lecturer in the Arts of East Asia at SOAS (the School of Oriental and African Studies) at the University of London and an Academic Member of the Japan Research Centre where we explore Kunichika's life and career. We discuss Kunichika's upbringing in Edo-period Japan (1603–1868), his training at the Utagawa School, and his evolution as an ukiyo-e artist. We discuss Kunichika's creative process, the woodblock production methods of the Edo and Meiji periods, and his favoured themes—kabuki actors, and beautiful women. We also discuss how Kunichika subtly incorporated Japan's emerging modernity into his designs. Lastly, Dr. Hinkel and I share our personal stories about why we have such an affinity for Toyohara Kunichika and his work.

Print publishers are given if known. Ichikawa Sandanji I (1842-1904) as Akiyama Kiimori from New Plays for the Meiji Theatre (1894) Published by Akiyama Buemon ukiyo-e - is a multi colour woodblock print generally associated with the Edo Period (1603-1867) of Japan. What began in the 17th Century as prints of only a few colours, evolved into an elaborate system of production and technique into the Meiji Period (1868-1912). With the advent of photography and other forms of printmaking, ukiyo-e as we know it today, ceased production by the late 19th Century.  Utagawa School - was a school of print designers starting with Utagawa Toyoharu (1735-1814). He employed one point perspective (vanishing point) in his print designs, being influenced by Western perspective. The influence of the Utagawa school goes far in Japanese print history and one of its most successful. This schools print designs of kabuki portraits, beautiful women (bijin-ga), and landscapes are excellent. Some famous names attributed to the Utagawa school are Utamaro (1753-1806), Utagawa Kunisada (1786-1865), and Ando Hiroshige (1797-1858). A fine description of this school can be found, here at Artelino.  Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1798-1861) - is considered one of the last “masters” of the ukiyo-e genre of Japanese woodblock printmaking. His designs range from landscapes, samurai and Chinese military heroes, as well as using various formats for his designs such as diptychs and triptychs.   The Mirror of Women of Wisdom and Courage - Princess Chujo (1843) Utagawa Kunisada (1786-1865) is widely regarded as one of the most significant woodblock print designers in Japanese history. His diverse portfolio includes prints ranging from landscapes and books to erotica and sumo. Kunisada worked during the vibrant era of nishiki-e alongside notable artists such as Andō Hiroshige (1797-1858), Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), and the aforementioned Kuniyoshi. This period represents a rich and abundant chapter in Japanese woodblock print history. Beauty in a Mirror - Beauty Applying Perfume On Her Neck (date unknown)  Kobayashi Kiyochika (1847-1915) - was a painter and woodblock print designer famous for his war prints on the First Sino-Japanese War (July 25, 1894- April 17, 1895). Kiyochika captured the transitional period in Japanese history as the country underwent rapid modernization and Westernization during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.   Light House at Kudan On A Rainy Night ca. 1930's   Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) -  was a mokuhanga designer who is famous for his prints depicting violence and gore. His work is powerful, colourful, and one of the last vibrant moments of the ukiyo-e genre of woodblock prints. More information about Yoshitoshi's life and his copious amount of work can be found, here.     Rising moon over Mount Nanping - Cao Cao (1885)   nishiki-e (錦絵) - is the Japanese phrase for multi-colour woodblock prints, otherwise known as brocade pictures. Usually attributed to the Meiji period (1868-1912).   © Popular Wheat Productions opening and closing credit - Evening Chimes in Japan logo designed and produced by Douglas Batchelor and André Zadorozny  Disclaimer: Please do not reproduce or use anything from this podcast without shooting me an email and getting my express written or verbal consent.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're taking a deep dive into Samurai Marathon (2019), a visually stunning period film directed by Bernard Rose. Inspired by historical events, this film blends samurai action, political intrigue, and themes of honor and perseverance into a gripping cinematic experience.Set in feudal Japan during the 1850s, Samurai Marathon is based on real events that led to the creation of Japan's first marathon. The film follows Lord Itakura (Hiroki Hasegawa), a daimyo who, fearing the influence of American arrivals, organizes a long-distance race to train his samurai for potential conflict. However, due to a misunderstanding, the shogunate interprets this as an act of rebellion, sending assassins to crush the supposed uprising.Caught in the middle of this unfolding chaos is Jinnai Karasawa (Takeru Satoh), a shogunate spy embedded within Itakura's ranks. As the marathon unfolds, Jinnai realizes that his duty may have unintended consequences, forcing him to make a choice between blind loyalty and doing what is right.
