"Finding Hope in Fukushima" is an article I wrote on MEDIUM - 2023 is the 12th anniversary of the 3.11.2011 earthquake-tsunami-nuclear power meltdown Tohoku disaster and the first time I had ever visited Fukushima.This podcast is an overview of the big takeaways of my 3-day consulting trip along the HAMADORI coastline that was most effected by the radiation disaster after the earthquake and tsunami of 2011. Key points of future tourism appeal: 1) great guides. On this monitor (trial) tour, we had Azby Brown- an expert from the SAFECAST org who has visited the area more than 40 times since 2011. Good guides are key to the success of this area as a destination as only knowledgeable and honest guides will be able to clearly communicate the complex issues and the past, present and future realities for the Fukushima area. 2) preservation of ruins and key sites as memorials3) engagement with interesting locals who are actively developing new businesses, engaged in activism and who can give a clear and honest perspective of what it's like to stay in Fukushima4) testing for knowledge, but also for safety and peace of mind of the visitors
Azby Brown is the main guide for a media tour of the Fukushima area called the "Hope Hamadori" Fukushima tour. This is connected to the area's HOPE TOURISM projects and new developments to guide international visitors through the area to talk honestly about the past, present and future. The aim of the project is to find ways to appeal to tourists who want to learn about Fukushima's past, present and future. #fukushima #travel #japan #sustainabletravel Azby Brown is an author, educator, expert on Japanese design, craftsmanship & environmental sensibility and lead Researcher for SAFECAST org.

He is a leading authority on Japanese architecture, design, and environmentalism, and the author of several books amongst which Just Enough: Lessons in living green from traditional Japan which was published in 2010. On top of that, since the Fukushima disaster, Azby has been lead researcher for Safecast, a highly successful global volunteer-based citizen-science organization devoted to developing new technology platforms for crowdsourced environmental monitoring. We will talk about his story and how he got interested in the topic of circular society in Edo times. We will also discuss which learnings from that period we could reapply in our modern society.

“In Edo Japan, basically life was pretty good, and they recycled everything. Everything was reused, upcycled. Waste was considered taboo. A person who was wasting was considered an ugly person. So there is a lot that we could talk about: design, the layout, scale. Buildings were rarely taller than two stories. Very good use of environmental features, microclimates, use of wind for cooling, passive solar heating. Good use of planting, gardens, etc. But regarding cities of the future, I think the main thing is it needs to be a place where people feel like they belong and want to take responsibility.I'm from New Orleans, and I am very interested in the fact that cities and the places we live in teach us. They shape us, as much as we shape them. And New Orleans was a wonderful place to grow up in because you wouldn't have said it was sustainable, but the vernacular traditional architecture was naturally cooler in summers because of the way it was built with high ceilings with deep eaves from the roof, with verandas shaded with lots of breezes and lots of gardens, plus it is full of older buildings. And things become gentle over time.”Azby Brown is a leading authority on Japanese architecture, design, and environmentalism and the author of several groundbreaking books, including Just Enough, Small Spaces, The Japanese Dream House, The Very Small Home, and The Genius of Japanese Carpentry.

震災から11年。 今回は、復興に向けて歩みを続ける福島県大熊町を訪れた際のレポートをお届けします。大熊町には福島第一原発の1号機から4号機が建ち、帰還困難地域に指定されている地域も存在しています。そんな地に伊藤穰一が足を運び、実際に地域の人々と触れ合う中で感じた思いなどをお伝えします。 そして、震災直後に伊藤穰一が立ち上げたSAFECASTの共同創業者にインタビュー。震災から11年。12年目を迎えた組織のあり方について伺いました。また、福島での知見を生かして、ロシアによるウクライナの原発の攻撃に関しても調査を行っているそうです。 そして、番組後半ではLinkedInの創業者でベンチャーキャピタリストのリード・ホフマン氏にウクライナ情勢についてインタビューしました。さまざまな企業がロシアから撤退する中、企業が担う役割とは何か？を伺っています。 【編集ノート】 編集ノートには用語や固有名詞などの意味や内容をまとめています。また、ETHアドレスの取得方法やNFTの確認方法についても、まとめています。ぜひご参照ください。 【JOI ITO 変革への道 - Opinion Box】 番組では、リスナーの皆様からお便りを募集しています。番組に対する意見はもちろん、伊藤穰一への質問があればぜひ投函ください。先日からイーサリアムのアドレス記載欄も設けました。 特に番組に貢献したリスナーには番組オリジナルのNFT会員証をプレゼントしています。 【コミュニティ醸成実験について】 これまで番組で小出しにお伝えしてきたコミュニティ醸成実験。ようやくその中身をお伝えできるようになりました。番組という枠を飛び出して、リスナーの方々同士が交流できる場となっています。詳しくは、下記リンクをご覧ください。 https://community.henkaku.org/ja この実験に参加をご希望の方は下記リンクから参加メンバーの登録をお願いします。メンバーのダイバーシティを考慮しながら、徐々にメンバーを拡大していく予定です。参加時期がきましたら、スタッフから個別に連絡をさせていただきます。興味のある方、まずは登録だけでもしてみてはいかがでしょうか。 https://airtable.com/shrbDbYUBoFgkg0tY 【デジタルガレージ Web3のコア人材募集中】 https://recruit.garage.co.jp/fintech/番組のスポンサーDigital Garage
“In Edo Japan, basically life was pretty good, and they recycled everything. Everything was reused, upcycled. Waste was considered taboo. A person who was wasting was considered an ugly person. So there is a lot that we could talk about: design, the layout, scale. Buildings were rarely taller than two stories. Very good use of environmental features, microclimates, use of wind for cooling, passive solar heating. Good use of planting, gardens, etc. But regarding cities of the future, I think the main thing is it needs to be a place where people feel like they belong and want to take responsibility.I'm from New Orleans, and I am very interested in the fact that cities and the places we live in teach us. They shape us, as much as we shape them. And New Orleans was a wonderful place to grow up in because you wouldn't have said it was sustainable, but the vernacular traditional architecture was naturally cooler in summers because of the way it was built with high ceilings with deep eaves from the roof, with verandas shaded with lots of breezes and lots of gardens, plus it is full of older buildings. And things become gentle over time.”Azby Brown is a leading authority on Japanese architecture, design, and environmentalism and the author of several groundbreaking books, including Just Enough, Small Spaces, The Japanese Dream House, The Very Small Home, and The Genius of Japanese Carpentry.

"Everything I would ask Temple and shrine carpenter Master Tsunekazu Nishioka, he brought it back to issues of the environment. Trees as living beings that we should love and cherish and respect. That we apologize to the tree when we cut it because we are ending that phase of its life, but we promise to use it in a way that will continue that life for another thousand years as part of a temple, for instance. He was constantly pointing out–Trees at the bottom of the hill, it's wetter there so that wood is not good for much. The trees at the top are not fighting for light, so they get stouter. And the trees in the middle, they are competing for light, so they get taller. And the branches are higher up, so they have fewer knots. Everything was about where the wind from, where the water came from, every question returned to that, and that's something I realized as I got to know other craftspeople in Japan, whether to lacquer or basketry or textiles. They all had this fundamentally sound environmental understanding that had been handed down for centuries.In Edo Japan, basically life was pretty good, and they recycled everything.

“Certainly all Japanese architects have been trained in both the Japanese tradition and the Western tradition and we see a lot of very very well thought out designs in architecture that make use of features of Japanese traditional houses. Japanese buildings like many and other parts of East Asia and Europe before the modern period are held together with wooden joints and pegs and wedges and they can be dismantled. And when a Japanese house was taken down, was demolished, every part of it could be reused. All the beams and columns. There were lumber yards that sold only used timber. Someone would come to buy that. Someone would come to buy the roof shingles, the tiles. Someone would come to buy the tatami floor mats or the sliding screens or all of the metal hardware. All the stuff was reusable and was intended to be reused. There is a concept now of “building as material bank”, and there is actually an organization that is promoting this idea that when you build a building, the materials are simply being borrowed for a certain period of time, a few tens of years, a century perhaps, and when the building is at end of life, when it needs to be replaced, then those materials go back into a resource pool to be reused.In Edo Japan, basically life was pretty good, and they recycled everything. Everything was reused, upcycled. Waste was considered taboo. A person who was wasting was considered an ugly person. So there is a lot that we could talk about: design, the layout, scale.

An interview between Joi Iti, Sean Bonner and Pieter Franken, the co-founders of Safecast, a citizen science organisation that formed in response to Fukushima nuclear disaster. At the time of the disaster, information on local radiation level was scarce, but their organisation combined a crowd-sourcing approach with cutting edge and easily sourced technology to quickly begin monitoring, collecting, and openly sharing information on environmental radiation.This interview was originally recorded for Joi's conversations podcast (https://joi.ito.com/weblog/2016/12/24/safecast-conver.html) and is used here under Creative Commons licence 4.0Image is screenshot of Safecast.org's map of Eastern Japan, that shows heightened radiation levels around Fukushima (the red and yellow areas).
Nesse episódio eu conto um pouco sobre a historia de um personagem imortal e também sobre a morte e a nossa ilusão que temos sobre a imortalidade.
Esse é um episódio para informar que as coisas mudarão um pouco daqui em diante em relação a esse podcast, então é mais para esclarecer e explicar como ele irá seguir.
Esse episódio eu explico como eu me senti de finalmente ter conseguido deixar minhas postagens da forma que eu gostaria.
Depois de uma reflexão que um cara aleatório me parou na praia comentando que ele rompeu o ligamento do braço dizendo que não conseguia fazer o exercício que eu estava fazendo, esse episódio nasceu.
Esse episódio tem a ideia de mostrar os ensinamentos que que Rock Lee e Maito Guy nos ensinaram na obra de Naruto.
We all rely on the bonds of our community in order for our businesses to thrive. We seek intros to VCs, backchannels to clients, advice from our peers and mentors. In normal times, these bonds heavily rely on in-person interactions — coffees, lunches, beers, and 1:1's. Reading body language is a critical component to reinforcement of those bonds. In our most vulnerable moments, we want to ensure that the other party is present, listening, and empathizing. And beyond the 1:1 interactions, in social places like our coffee shops and coworking spaces, we create room for serendipity — that chance encounter that leads to something new and unexpected, whether it's a new business idea or a solution to an existing problem facing a member of our community. During this pandemic, we've been stripped of the ability to interact as normal. Sure, we have all these video chat tools — but it's not a replacement of our in-person interactions, just a digital proxy. And while those proxies may suffice for our 1:1 meetings, they certainly aren't helping with serendipity. So how do we form community in a time of crisis? How do we create space for chance? And how can we come together to listen, to engage, to be present, when many of us are already at our wits end staring at a video on a computer screen all day long? Join us for a mentor Q&A with Marcelino Alvarez, Chief Product Officer at Fresh Consulting. He was formerly CEO of Uncorked Studios, which co-founded Safecast during the 2011 Fukushima earthquake and ensuing nuclear disaster. He'll share perspectives from then and now as he undertakes other efforts to maintain his community and pursue digital serendipity. For the complete hour-long conversation with Q&A, visit Community Projects in Times of Crisis with Marcelino Alvarez of Fresh Consulting.
Mat Schaffer joins us to discuss an open data project he's been working on called Safecast. Mike answers customer question: Can I perform a minor version upgrade on the cloud platform without downtime?
