China's Operation Yao Ming

Ever wondered why China's basketball superstar Yao Ming became so tall? According to Time magazine, he was the result of a decades-long experiment that matched up athletes of extraordinary dimensions and abilities. Ming's father was 2.08 meters or about 6'9" tall and his mother was 1.88 (6'2") which is about a foot taller than the average Chinese man. When 'little' Ming was born he weighed over 5 Kg. (11 pounds) and was twice as large as the average male infant. Here's more on this story:

Is Japan a Racist Country?

The answer by most Japanese would be "No, there is only one race in Japan." And if one thinks about it that is technically a valid answer. But then one only has to watch TV Osaka's long-running きらきらアフロ2011 or "Glistening Afro" television show and you may see some 'comic' scenes like this:

David Bowie as a Japanese Salaryman

Our venerable Japanese News correspondent just sent in this stunning new scoop of David Bowie as a Japanese Salaryman:

Talking of coffee tables, here are some glimpses of a glossy new book by Japanese photographer Masayoshi Sukita. Speed of Life (a snip at £360) shows Sylvian’s direct forebear and antecedent David Bowie posing in Kyoto during a holiday there in 1979 — the time he was hanging out with Sinologist David Kidd.

Bowie, after hinting that Japan was to be his new home, left for New York, explaining that Japan would make him “too Zen”, which would cause him to stop writing.

But perhaps the oddest and most interesting of Sukita’s images, revealed for the first time in the new book, are the studio shots where he portrays Bowie as a salaryman on his way to work, attempting to beat the clock

David Bowie and Masayoshi Sukita are now working together on this new photo book entitled "Speed of Life". This book can be pre-ordered here.

Yes it's true and the legendary Japanese rock band L'Arc~en~Ciel has just launched a new world tour! On November 29th they kicked off the tour with a sold-out 20th anniversary concert at Ajinomoto Stadium. That show was broadcast via tape-delay at Empire 25 in New York City. According to RPGHERO:

It was basically like I won the experience of sneaking into a city movie theatre... But the concert film was pretty cool. It wasn't truly live, it was more like it was filmed on the 29th in Japan and shown in the USA on the 29th. So it's almost like it was live right? It took place at technically the same time and day.

Here is a video of the concert footage of L'Arc-en-Ciel performing Ready Steady Go from the other night:

”The scene, brief and looped, has the elusive appeal of a new Yeti or Bigfoot reel. Joe Salama, who posted the fragment, says: “This exceptional cine footage was taken by my late father on a trip up to the West End of London totally unaware that David Bowie was the young dude that smiles graciously at the camera.”

"Well, I thought I could do better than that, and before long I’d googled enough to publish with some confidence the true facts of this remarkable document. Somebody in the comments points out that it’s more likely to be 1966 or 1965. I’m able to confirm that this is spring 1965."

"I also found this Lower Third handbill, drawn by Bowie himself in 1965, showing him with the same hairstyle and the same high rounded shirt collar you see in the film."

Liu Bolin: China's #1 'Forever Alone' Artist

While many countries attempt in vain to overthrow Japan as THE #1 WTF superpower, China may now have a lock on the world's #1 Forever Alone artist:



Actually, this is one of the many incredible works by China's world-renowned camouflage artist Liu Bolin. His work has been shown in many countries and one of his recent solo exhibitions “The Invisible Man,” was produced by Eli Klein Fine Art and held in New York.



But before asking yourself "Why, China, Why?" Bolin's art is considered by many as a very poignant statement on our world and the anonymous state of so many poverty-stricken people all over the globe. Early in his career, his exhibits were shut down by Chinese authorities making him virtually 'anonymous' but through that experience he developed his art even more. "My pieces talk about the question of the social status of art in general. In my work the artist is hiding to restore his strength and to protect himself," says Bolin.

After graduating with a master's degree from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2001, Bolin became a college teacher but resigned after only four years. He then moved to Beijing's old city of Suo Jia Village and began his fantastic voyage. You can see more of Bolin's work here.

Much like Japan's Yamaichi Securities and Livedoor, now the Olympus Corporation has been caught cooking its books for the past two decades! Apparently it all started back in the '90s over some bad investments that were covered up instead of written off. This all came about earlier this year after the company's first foreign CEO Michael Woodford recently questioned some past acquisitions and excessive advisory fees paid to mysterious middle men. Following that, Woodford was then immediately fired after only two weeks on the job! Sounds all too familiar with some other Gaijin and other Japanese firms these days.

However, a premonition of this global firm's explosive collapse was actually seen at least two years prior when the legendary Blendtec team created this funny and prophetic video Will It Blend? - New Olympus Cameras Get Mixed by Blendtec:

Japan's Chim↑Pom‬ 'Super Rats' Attack Tokyo

Via Huffington Post 10/25/11

Just after the 3-11 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster that struck Fukushima, world wide media immediately focused on Japan. Shortly after that, a group of Japanese artists known as ‪Chim↑Pom‬ launched their own nuclear art attack on Tokyo's Shibuya station and added a very relevant and explosive guerrilla installation to Taro Okamoto's "Myth of Tomorrow" mural which is an historical homage to Japan's previous nuclear holocausts:




This installation piece entitled "Level 7 feat. Myth of Tomorrow" created a big scandal as at first it was anonymously featured in world news and Japanese headlines. This work was very skillfully done in order to blend in with Okamoto's style. Within an hour from installation it was all over Twitter and other social sites. Then it was quickly reported by mainstream Japanese media. A day later it was taken down by the police and called "graffiti" and "malicious mischief." A police investigation followed and public debates in the press and on the internet discussed whether or not it was a crime. Soon afterwards ‪Chim↑Pom‬ released this video on Youtube:



and created even more controversy! Following that the group held a press conference and admitted that it was their work and added it to their ensuing "Real Times" exhibition which was held from May 20th - May 25th in Tokyo and from June 20th - 27th in Osaka. After both exhibitions, the police came and investigated the group's leaders and the "graffiti" case was sent to court early in July.

Well, now ‪Chim↑Pom‬ is making world wide headlines once again with their new "Super Rat" exhibit. In this installation they have further developed their shock art style by catching a bunch of big, huge rats in Shibuya's Centa Gai area and making them into taxidermic Pikachus aimed at Japanese girls who dress up as the famous anime character and ravage Shibuya in hordes:



Here is a recent interview with the group:



IMHO, more of this kind of art really needs to be made in Japan today. For more information about the legendary ‪Chim↑Pom‬, please visit their official website.

NMA TV: Who Will Buy Yahoo?

Taiwan's Next Media Animation recently released this funny 3D animation news report on Who Will Buy Yahoo?:



Google, Private-Equity Firms Mull Bid For Yahoo

"Google and prospective partners have held early-stage discussions but haven't put together a formal proposal and Google may end up not pursuing a bid, this person said. It is unclear which private-equity firms Google has talked to."

"As Microsoft and other companies consider buying search engine and media company Yahoo, questions arise over how much the company is worth, MarketWatch's Dan Gallagher reports on Markets Hub."

"Any deal tying two of the biggest Internet companies would be sure to attract antitrust scrutiny. Federal antitrust lawyers in 2008 thwarted a Web-search advertising partnership between the companies. A year later Yahoo signed a 10-year search partnership with Microsoft Corp."

WTF Japan: TOTO's Toilet Poop Bike

First came the delectable invention of poopburgers from Japan of course.

And now just when you thought you've had enough of this WTF Japan crap, the well-known Japanese toilet maker, TOTO, has just introduced the all-new toilet poop bike that runs on human excrement:



Yes, that's right long riders, you don't need to take anymore truck stop breaks as you can keep on riding while pooping. Check it out:



Just kidding. It doesn't work that way. And this model is obviously a promo for the toilet manufacture. But wait, there's more! This new shit cycle also plays music, talks and generates some kind of “residual light imagery to write messages in the air as it zooms by.” Whatever.

"Rocketeer": Award Winning Hong Kong TVC

"Rocketeer" is a very creative, funny and award-winning Hong Kong television commercial for NutriGreen's LDF Cordyceps Health Supplement:



According to the main actor in this commercial, Jayson Li:

"The campaign I worked on for NutriGreen's LDF Cordyceps Health Supplement (《綠養坊》LDF純冬蟲夏草) was launched not too long ago. The "Rocketeer" campaign consists of a television commercial, directed by Chan Man Chung, and a print ad with the production house being Film Factory and the advertising agency being Leo Burnett Hong Kong. The TVC was recently featured in the Chinese language newspaper Ming Pao (明報), Attuworld Nederland and on Virgin Radio Toronto. The TVC was also recently screened at the Cannes Lions 58th International Festival of Creativity which was held at the Palais de Festivals in Cannes, France."

Note: This commercial was also selected as a winner in the 2011 Spikes Asia - Asia's Creative Advertising Festival and Awards.

Brief Explanation:

"Most people in Hong Kong live a crazily hectic life - long working hours, overtime on weekends, and a packed social life. Most of them feel drained before they even get up in the morning. To dramatize this phenomenon, this commercial shows how a businessman loses his energy before he even gets to work. The answer of course, is Nutrigreen LDF Cordyceps, a health supplement that helps people maintain their energy level throughout the day".
