Expectations from Mori Building

by Ozaki Tetsuya

I visited an event with the title, "Chi no Live House (Live House of 
Knowledge)," that
was hosted by Mori Building the other day. "Chi no Live House" was held at the
occasion of the twenty-seventh graduation ceremony of "Ark Toshi Juku," an 
institution
for lifelong education that was founded by Mori Building in 1988. Aiming to 
create a
"flea market for 'knowledge' and 'learning'," the education/study facility 
"Academy Hills"
was then established in 1996, with "Ark Toshi Juku" as its centerpiece.
The management, council and program committee is made up of prominent names,
such as celebrity professors from Tokyo University, Keio University and Waseda
University, as well as leading architects, town planners, designers, and 
others.

On the Peak of Normal: Holger Czukay Japan Tour 2002

by Andreas Stuhlmann

When talking about Holger Czukay, the word 'krautrock' usually pops up. 
While this
still applied somehow to his old mothership, Cologne-based band Can, Holger's
own music totally refuses classification. If Can was rock, then Holger's 
job was the
experimenting part of looking for 'something interesting' to add and give 
it more
spontaneity. Since his brilliant 1979 release "Movies," that rang in 
Holger's post-Can
solo career, one could say that he eliminated the 'rock' element out of the 
'rock +
something interesting' combination, to keep doing what remains here -
'something interesting.'
