toki, jan Punki o! Do you speak languages other than English? Which one is most cool to you?
OUGH i do not but i wanna fix that! genuinely really wanna learn spanish, I unfortunately didn't get the chance to start learning until later in high school. I think once i graduate I'd love to get back to learning it. that and japanese, even if it's a huge bitch to learn sometimes, because I think there's so much cool literature I want to read in the language it was written in if I get the chance.
#mostly bc im reading hyperart thomasson and thats really interesting to me and i wonder how it reads in the native language!#still a blast to read translated tho#my posts#asks#janwaso

Hyperart Thomasson is a type of conceptual art named by the Japanese artist Akasegawa Genpei in the 1980s. It refers to a useless relic or structure that has been preserved as part of a building or the built environment, which has become a piece of art in itself.
Akasegawa discovered the first Thomasson in 1972, in Yotsuya, Tokyo when he noticed a staircase that had no entranceway when one reached the top. The handlerail of the staircase, however, showed signs of repair, suggesting it was still being maintained despite the apparent uselessness of the staircase itself.
thinking again about the house in the sims 4 thats missing a back door where there clearly was supposed to be one and how it never got patched and probably never will

The Wonderful, Useless World of the Hyperart Thomasson
From staircases that lead to nowhere, to doors that open out to fatal drops, 'Thomassons' are architectural oddities generally described as 'useless, but still maintained'. I wrote a bit about them for the Sabukaru site. Read the full thing here...
