A snapshot of impressions and inspirations from a three-week stay in Tokyo whilst the earth rumbled below and the night sky lit by a nuclear-powered city.

I spent near on a month in Japan, most of it in Tokyo… It was my good fortune to have access to a bicycle on which I experienced an entirely different Tokyo… mostly of an evening I would ride, as if floating, under a low, often steel grey sky, slightly back-lit by the red pulse of the city. It was summer…

Tokyo Haiku is a snapshot of my impressions, a glimpse of what I had seen and heard. It is but a breath…

Filmed, recorded and composed in August 2008.
