EXPO

so, another weekend in nagoya. went back to the expo again and saw some new stuff. highlights: the german pavillion had a little mini coaster ride that took you through different exhibits. the french pavillion had a video on the environment and the future: IS THERE A FUTURE FOR THE FUTURE? and i think that out of all the pavillions, they really got the whole 'thoughts about nature' theme right. it was the kind of video (4 walls + cieling) that really made you spend a few minutes (or days!) afterwards thinking about our place in the world.
today at saruhashi two of my ichi-nensei students got into a fight and one boy had the other by the throat. hmmmmmmmmm.........

yep france got it spot on, the message came across really well, you could tell it touched everyone.
top prize for paranoia has to go to the USA, what with all their security guards and baggage scanners just to get in to their pavillion. i mean, really.
