A unique take on modern life in Japan's capital city. A Japan of
trains, every day to and fro, carriage scenes and theatre, vistas
from the window, advertising posters. Each to be savoured through a
specific Tokyo line - the Odakyu. Pitched as creative text and
line-graphics, Tokyo Commute: Japanese Customs and Way of Life
Viewed from the Odakyu Line offers on-track and off-track
observations. A gallery of mirrors, musings, memories. This is less
documentary than iconography, a poetics of Japanese routine and
etiquette. It offers a wry diary of month-and-weekday observations,
a 'map' of Shinjuku as key station and gathering-place, a run of
notable Tokyo locations - from the National bunraku theatre to a
Kawasaki sludge recycling centre. Other Odakyu travel involves the
Hakone open air art gallery, Narita as both airport and temple
complex, Yokohama as history and Chinatown. Essential reading for
first-time, and second-time visitors, and even regular commuters.
