Space, timing, balance and disaster

You already know by now about the devastating earthquake, tsunami and nuclear crisis that struck Japan March 11th.

Watch this blog for info in the next two weeks about relief efforts, nuclear crisis information and analysis, and my impending return to Japan after taking shelter in Vancouver, Canada for two weeks.

For now, here are some things I’ve been reading.

Please see the project Quakebook, a fund-raising and cathartic effort on teh part of an Abiko City resident, to document people’s quake experiences. All proceeds go to The Red Cross. See the Quakebook blog here.

A huge thank you to the Coastal Buyu for welcoming me back and receiving me on short notice, and to my sempai Shawn for a great seminar last weekend.
