Naoki Ishikawa Hair

石川直樹 『髪』

The title of Ishikawa's 2014 book a single kanji: "kami".

「髪」 denotes "hair"- but is also a homonym with kami 「神」. This kami in the Shinto religion refers to its deities, encompassing all holy, natural divine phenomena. 

It’s entirely possible to view Ishikawa’s lauded photographic explorations of our natural world and its human cultures as glimpse of the divine.  Here though, rather than transcendental vistas of faraway ranges or the secrets of remote island festivals, this book closely focuses on a single young woman with long, rich black hair that has a spirit of its own.

I would love to have been a fly on the wall in the Final Fantasy XIV writers room during Endwalker

Yoshi-P: ‘Okay, gang. I think it would be fun to re-use Anima from Final Fantasy X. But obviously we’ll need a new backstory for it, to fit the setting of our game’s world. Any ideas?’

*Ishikawa raises her hand*

Yoshi-P: ‘What’ve you got for me, Ishikawa-San? You’re always filled with bright ideas.’

Ishikawa: ‘What if Anima is the late Emperor Varis?’

Yoshi-P: ‘Interesting. I think that might-’

Ishikawa: ‘It’s his mutilated corpse, kept in a state of painful undeath by the focused patriotic zeal of his countrymen. For after all, what is nationalism if not a crude parody of religion, with all of its darkest attributes and none of its positive aspects.’

Yoshi-P: ‘That’s... a little dark. There isn’t a gas leak in this office right now, right? The last time that happened, we ended up with Final Fantasy VIII’s Junction system.’

*Ishikawa puts her feet up on the table*

Ishikawa: ‘Also, I’ve been thinking about the final boss. Let’s make it the literal personification of suicidal depression. Really fuckin twist the knife in.’

Yoshi-P: ‘...’

*Ishikawa is now smoking five cigarettes at the same time*

Ishikawa: ‘Fuck it, let’s also make the endgame a massive, pointed, and ANGRY criticism of Buddhism. Western games criticize their own majority religions all the time, and I have some FUCKING THOUGHTS about our own cultural and religious expectations.’

Yoshi-P: ‘Do you... do you need a hug?’

Ishikawa: ‘I am so far beyond hugs right now. Only cocaine can sustain me.’

OH today's hobonichi preview... she's gorgeous... based on the photograph "denali in the midnight sun #1" by naoki ishikawa.

today's preview is how I learned that denali hasn't been officially called "mt mckinley" for over nine years which is. slightly embarrassing to just now be learning but it's cool to know now! this cover is absolutely GORGEOUS and I'm LOVING the color.

[rhysnolastname]

todays (technically tomorrow saturday) hobonichi reveal is many hours early. its called denali in the midnight sun. it’s a beautiful commemoration of a cyanotype of denali done by naoki ishikawa. you can see the sky and clouds and snow. it’s beautiful and blue and i love blue. it’s really bold blue, you can see the brush strokes of where the solution was applied. the classic butterfly closure is a dark dark blue. it looks like they have an a5 and a6 cover, as well as a weeks, and graph notebooks. the have corresponding pencil boards featuring another cyanotype, this time instead of from camp seeing out into the summit, it’s much lower and there’s a bright blue cessna
