Knowing such a performance took place makes my day a little better.

You know, this kind of thing is why I don't like any of the prominent artists from Japan—the ones who do really well over here. Like Murakami or Mariko Mori. They make these codified, concentrated efforts to explain what a nutty place Japan is, and the work is clever and is bought up quickly, but it's never so acute as the things you find after clicking a link preceded by some statement about what a crazy effin' place Japan is.

Is the Murakami to which you refer Haruki, the other Murakami novelist, or a visual artist? Because I wouldn't have described Haruki Murakami that way, not at all.

Oops—Takashi Murakami. I agree, I don't think that comment applies to Haruki.

I apologize for not being hip to your arty references.

I hope those dancers left a small bare patch at the base of the spine to allow the skin to breathe.
