285/2011: Qualia Japan Project on Flickr.
Our company started Qualia Japan Project last week. It’s a web publication (The link is to our Facebook page that is open to public). Dr. Kenichiro Mogi, a brain scientist travels around Japan, and write about what he sees, feels, thinks , and inspires our readers to find things with “qualia” around them and transmit what they think to the world. We have visited Kyoto, Okinawa, and the east side of Tokyo on the project.
This one is the shot I took in Okinawa last month. On the first day, one of our destinations was Nakagusuku Castle. When leaving the castle, we saw an abandoned building. The coordinator let us know that it was used by the American Navy a while ago.
Of course it was a keep-off area, but the coordinator happily guided us in there. Soon Dr. Mogi Kenichiro strode into the deeper area of the building. We lost sight of him, and decided to wait until he came back. And it meant that I, as a photographer, was free for a little while. So I shot some photos of its interiors, which I know it won’t be included in the web magazine because the owner wouldn’t give us permission.
So here I can share this here happily with you. This is my unofficial and personal Qualia Japan Project. On the official project, as I mentioned, we find things with “qualia” of Japan and share them with the world, of course, with permission.

I was waiting for the lights on the bridge to be turned on. I’m so glad that the all the lights on the expressways in Tokyo have come back.
