Music events: - On Saturday February 9 was a daytime event of ammakasie noka (Mayutan) & shiroi Ribbon, held in a traditional Japanese house in Nishi-Ogikubo built 86 years ago. The concert was a mix of violin playing, singing, storytelling, and record listening, with on stage many beautiful old-fashioned toys who took turns in the spotlight. Each toy kind of seemed to have its own personality.
I bought ammakasie noka's brand new album "Little Ghost House" which is a quiet and soothing adventure in the woods, made mainly just of field recordings and voices.
Movie: - Saw the Indian movie "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" at Uplink in Kichijoji. It's about a Pakistanese child who cannot speak and is lost in India alone after a train misadventure, to be rescued by an Indian stranger.
