The French philosopher Felix Guattari frequently visited Japan
during the 1980s and organized exchanges between French and
Japanese artists and intellectuals. His immersion into the
"machinic eros" of Japanese culture put him into contact with media
theorists such as Tetsuo Kogawa and activists within the mini-FM
community (Radio Home Run), documentary filmmakers (Mitsuo Sato),
photographers (Keiichi Tahara), novelists (Kobo Abe),
internationally recognized architects (Shin Takamatsu), and dancers
(Min Tanaka). From pachinko parlors to high-rise highways,
alongside corporate suits and among alt-culture comrades, Guattari
put himself into the thick of Japanese becomings during a period in
which the bubble economy continued to mutate. This collection of
essays, interviews, and longer meditations shows a radical thinker
exploring the architectural environment of Japan's "machinic eros."
