Weekly revue: 2013 week #18 (April 27 to May 3)
Food: - Chicken cutlet lunch plate at Newport, Yoyogi
- Lunch at Tapir, Shin-Ōkubo. This weekend is a two-part event, during the first two days customers bring some food (something non-cooked and that doesn't perish too soon) in exchange of a free meal, and during the last two days the restaurant makes a menu from the food that people brought, and the price paid is decided by the customer. A very strange system, especially to people who enter the restaurant without knowing. :)

Exhibition: - Went to see suzueri's "recursion piano" installation at Gallery 20202 in Yoyogi. A number of modified toy pianos are chained together in different ways, eventually a key is pressed and a signal of some form is launched towards the next piano, forming an endless loop (if things go well). The artist was there to tune things and explain the system.
Music event: - I went to see Vanilla Beans (with a live band!) and Kaji Hideki! My report is up here.
Music release news: tofubeats, Original Love, Muro, michirurondo, Kinoco Hotel, Sexy-Synthesizer feat. Chihiro, Vanilla Beans
Playlist: Vanilla Beans, Sunahara Yoshinori, FPM, Chromeo, "kimi ni naritai."
Tech: I started using iPhone app TrackRec which is a GPS logger that exports in GPX and other formats. It does just as fine as my good old hardware GPS logger (Sony GPS-CS1), actually it's even better, and it's free! I was able to use the data with my Flickr GPS Geotagger.
