| Saikoro TokyoAs part of mmy internship at Wieden+Kennedy Tokyo I will also be contributing to w+k tokyo lab's next DVD/book, Tokyo.Ten,
which is due to be released later this year.
The way I see Tokyo is a bit like a board game — it’s a journey and an adventure, and every moment is a throw of dice, a random intersection of possibilities.
For this project I wanted to explore Tokyo by seeing where chance would take me. Many have the impression that Tokyo is all skyscrapers and huge crowds and scrambled crossings. But take step three streets off to the side and you’re in a whole new world. Hidden behind the four-lane roads are the narrow alleys, the overgrown vacant lots, faded posters and rusty signs. The lonely local parks, the laundry hanging from apartment blocks, these are the places tourists will never see. By choosinig my destinations in a completely random method, I would give myself the chance to see tokyo’s B-side.
I allowed my destinations to be decided by the “points” on a die. I developed a system of throwing the die to decide the page number and grid location of ten separate points on a newly acquired pocket map of the city and designated ten points to visit. Then, armed with a sketchbook and several cameras, I went on to document and record each point.
Point no. 01: page 124 "Oku"
