Tokyo Nights
Posted by: Keech on 4th Nov 2008 in Keechdesign News

Just returned from a week on the set of Bladerunner. Actually people always make the analogy with Ridley Scott's masterpiece, but in reality Tokyo is far more civilized and easy to negotiate. Yes, it does feel frenetic, and there is more than enough neon, noise and high technology, not to mention subculture, counterculture and any other culture you care to mention. But learn to ride the subway and sort out your Shibuyas from your Shinjukus, and it becomes a user-friendly sort of a metropolis.

Cuddly Alien Bagpipes
Posted by: David Keech on 3rd Oct 2007 in Keechdesign News

Earlier on in the year I took part, as a visiting lecturer, in a project at the RCA http://www.rca.ac.uk/ organized Yamaha, and overseen by Yoshihiro Katsumata of Yamaha London. Having spent over two years designing music related consumer product at their Japanese Design HQ, I was intrigued as to what students from the Design Products department would make of one of Yamaha's briefs.
