Tokyo office grows own food in vertical farm
In a country with very little arable land (only 12% compared with 20% in the US), in one of the most populated cities in the world, one company chose to give up 43,000 square feet of valuable workspace to grow food. In the Tokyo headquarters of human resources company Pasona Group they grow 200 species of fruits and vegetables and even rice that are harvested and served to employees.
The indoor urban farm doesn’t just provide food, but by mixing work space and farm space, the company tries to provide a healthier quality of life for employees. Here green isn’t just a window dressing: immediately upon entering the building you walk over a 1,000-square-foot rice paddy, continue through an okra field and you enter the vine-covered “tomato guest room” or the “vegetable factory” filled with hundreds of hydroponic heads of lettuce. On the second floor, fruit trees form partition walls between meeting spaces, bean sprouts are grown under benches and herbs grow on shelving along the walls.
Even the outside of the building is covered in plants helping keep the building cool in summer and warmer in winter. According to the farm’s designers Kono Designs, “it is the largest and most direct farm-to-table of its kind ever realized inside an office building in Japan.”

Fumihiko Maki — TIME SPACE EXISTENCE
PLANE—SITE travelled to the Tokyo offices of Maki and Associates to gain the famous minimalist architect’s perspective on the topics of time, space, and existence. Maki aims for a return of humanity to architecture and creating spaces that people can enjoy.
Curated and produced by PLANE—SITE, this video series features interviews with prominent architects reflecting on the topics of TIME SPACE EXISTENCE, part of the 2016 collateral program at the Venice Architecture Biennale, hosted by the Global Art Affairs Foundation. The diverse roster of accomplished architects includes Denise Scott Brown (USA), Peter Eisenman (USA), Curtis W. Fentress (USA), Meinhard von Gerkan (Germany), Dirk Hebel (Switzerland), Frei Otto (Germany), and Wong Mun Summ and Richard Hassell (Singapore). The series was originally composed for viewing for the duration of the TIME SPACE EXISTENCE exhibition, but now continues to seek out the unique perspectives of accomplished architects on these universal architectural topics.

Emergency shelters made from paper: Shigeru Ban at TEDxTokyo
Shigeru Ban
Eco-Architect and Three-Dimensional Poet
Shigeru Ban's practical philosophy of architecture involves nothing less than redefining aesthetics, space, materials and structure. His unusual modular shelter design using recycled paper and cardboard shipping tubes, for example, provided evacuees with sturdy havens after the Great East Japan Earthquake. Shigeru graduated from Cooper Union's Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture, worked at Arata Isozaki's atelier, and in 1985 founded Shigeru Ban Architects. His notable works include Curtain Wall House, the Japanese Pavilion at Expo 2000 in Hannover, Germany, and the Centre Pompidou-Metz museum of modern and contemporary arts in France. Shigeru has received a wealth of awards, including the Architectural Institute of Japan Prize, Auguste Perret Prize, and the Ministry of Education's Award for Fine Arts. Currently on the faculty at the Kyoto University of Art and Design, he has also taught at Harvard, Cornell and Keio University.

What does an artistic scientist create? | Shunji Mitsuyoshi | TEDxTokyo
An “X-Ray for the human heart”
Mitsuyoshi has a unique background which includes becoming a doctor in engineering and pursuing research in bio-robotics at Stanford after graduating from arts college.
He is now involved in research that can analyze people’s mental state and emotions just from the sound of their voice.
By collecting the patients voice data and analyzing it, they are looking for possible ways to utilise it for early detection in the treatment of diseases.

New York Brooklyn、True Schoolの伝道者が黄金の国ジパングにて、
Hip Hop Mapに ”Kanagawa Fujisawa City a.k.a. Moss Village”を記したDを発見した。
そう、これは2017年に生まれた新たな見聞録である...
2013年発表の2nd Album「THE 9」以降、RHYME&B 2nd Album「FLOWMOTION」、DUSTY HUSKY 1st Album「DhUuSsTkYy」、祀SP 1st Album「PERFECT WORLD」など、個々での活動において目まぐるしい動きを見せていた中、2015年の横浜・大阪にてStageを分け合ったDINARY DELTA FORCE、MARCO POLOの両者は、このアルバムを完成させる事を約束し、それぞれのBed Townに戻っていった。
時は経ち、2016年12月19日、DINARY DELTA FORCE結成15周年という記念すべき日に突如としてリリースした12inch「F.L.A.Me / LISTEN - Produced by MARCO POLO」は発売後わずか2時間で完売。Wantが数あるDLiP Vinylの中でも今最も手に入らない作品となった。
これまで、彼らはいったいどれほどのMARCO POLO Beatsを聴いたのだろう...最終的に残ったこの9曲（究極）は、これまでのダイナリ作品としてはありえない、全曲において全員がVerseを吹き込むという後にも先にも二度とない作品に仕上がった。
コレを聴けばすぐ理解できるはずだ、DLiP RECORDSの音楽が何故、日本のHip Hopに必要なのかが。
もはやジャンルの1つとして扱われてしまっている昨今のラップミュージックとは全く違うBoomBapはブッチギリだ。
Japanese Hip Hop Classicとして賞賛される1st Album「SOUNDTRACK TO THE BEDTOWN」

そして、実に4年振りとなる本作は、全曲MARCO POLOプロデュースのもと、世界基準のAlbumを完成させた。
