Eri and I took a lovely tour of some of the world's most famous places today, via the miracle of Lego. This exhibition at the Parco gallery in Shibuya is, predictably, wonderful. We managed to visit the Taj Mahal (amazing), St Basil's Cathedral (also very good), and even Machu Pichu (totally pointless - the ruins could have been anywhere without the mountains in the background). It was interesting to see the Palace of Westminster, and to realise I have no idea about what it looks like apart from the bit around Big Ben! Perhaps the best thing though, was the piece by artist/writer/TV pervert pundit, Lily Franky, who did a version of the Leaning Tower at Pisa being attacked by Oden Kun and his friends. An inspirational exhibit overall and made me want to go out and start making Lego guns and penises again like the good-ol'days.
Is there anything LEGO can't do?
I think I'd be tempted to drive LEGO cars through all the LEGO streets or have some sort of LEGO ninja roof top fighting with LEGO men.
I don't think there is anything Lego can't do.
I'd like to have left little Lego MPs unlawfully employing their little Lego sons around the Palace of Westminster, and a little Lego journalist being arrested by the Lego Great Wall. Would have made it more realistic!
