i have received several emails about fellow students from around the world about how to enter the university of tokyo. i'm trying now by this blog reach out to those students who have emailed me that i will answer you shortly. one student who emailed me from the chicago school: would you be kind and send the email again since i screwed up my mailbox and deleted emails accidently.

otherwise i'm having a studio mid-term critic where all the professors will attend, the presentation will be one minute long and the critic two minutes long...i'm not yet working nights but have long days at school and go to the uni also during the weekends

i find that the japanese students begin to tackle the assignment/problem by designing the mass, or the volume, before working on sections and plans. it's function that follows form...anyway, a great deal of emphasis is put on the concept which i find to be a good thing.

okok, have to run to school to make some study models.
