(1) Tokyo Editors' Diary
===============================================================

Baba Masataka ("A" magazine) vol. 005

I've written a book. It's kind of a concept book for the "R-project,"
and as the subtitle suggests it's a collection of case studies on how
to 'recycle cities.' I've approached the matter not only from the
design point of view, but discussed also aspects such as real estate
and administrative measures, and even included studies of how the
opening of a little restaurant on a street corner can affect the city's
atmosphere.

from Paris: Fukuda Miki on William Forsythe's Decision

As a result of his dispute with the city of Frankfurt over his
assignment as the Ballett Frankfurt's artistic director, William
Forsythe announced at the end of August that he is not going to
renew the contract that expires in 2004. Forsythe has been the
ensemble's director since 1985, and in his international activities
that include also the director's position at a new theatre called
"TAT" since 1998, he has played his role of the cultural
ambassador of Frankfurt in an indisputably excellent manner.

(3) Event Pick of the Week
===============================================================

Ex Maquina: The Other Side of the Moon

Here's a piece by contemporary theatre wizard, Robert Lepage,
performed for the first time in Japan. The keyword is "Lepage Magic."
Once this magic takes effect, the whole space starts transforming
with Lepage's excellent visual expressions, stimulating the viewer's
borderless powers of imagination. Outstanding is also the
magnificence with which this piece illustrates the 20th century as an
era of two opponent poles, portraying two brothers' confrontation
and reconciliation, and the transition of former Soviet space
development programs. When you hear now that, above all this, the
music is by Laurie Anderson, you'll realize that in case you're into
either theatre, music, or technology, this is one event you shouldn't
miss.
