Ok have been busy settling in to Japan but I’ve just uploaded this pic of my studio in Fukuoka. Its of when I just arrived and had my uncle Tony Hilton staying with me who took the photo… Big ups go to Tony throwing down the mad wide angle camera style! Isn’t that Nikorr 10mm fish eye and Wide lens something else? And yes that’s a surfboard and no the surfs not pumping yet!

What else am I doing. Well when I’m not checking out Japan’s crazy art, music design and fashion scene here in Daimyo, I’m freelancing my days away doing Flash projects. Flash FaceBook apps are the new craze get yours here now! Haha! Nope just jokes I’ve been researching Flash Facebook apps and asside from just a few prototypes you should see a nice Muskater FaceBook app coming your was soon.

This is all good fun, however, the seriousness of the situation is that I’m here to develop an artwork. I’ve already taken one step forward with creating a physical interface to control video using Arduino, ultrasonic sensors (like the ones in the new cars that tell you how far away the car behind is) and Processing.org for the visuals though its very limited for video right now. I will be installing Heard and Experimenta Commission artwork here on Sept 24,25,26 and performing with local dancers using the video hardware I’m working.

So all guns blazing and really am just excited to be here in Japan.
