MJ Ultra Live - A quick report

Last night (Nov 15th) my band MJ Ultra played a live set at Dress in Akihabara. We think the show went well and everyone seemed to enjoy the combination of music and visuals, that I had produced. These visuals were a combination of some of my older short films and some newer experiments with graphics and stills.

Thanks to all those who came to see us and to our support acts Silentgarden and Red Sun. Both of which I really enjoyed, so best of luck to them in the future.

Below are a few images from last night. The graphics to our song Perfect Sunrise, my backstage pass and me in the car coming home, a little worse for wear I might add after a few glasses of champagne.

Soviet Toys

This is a little 3 minute short film that I put together recently. The statue in the video was outside Inawashiro station in Fukushima.

Soviet Toys has a little of double meanings. Work them all out and let me know.
