			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What with the massive and terrible Earthquake devasting vast swathes of China, it seemed to some bright sparks like the right time for an exhibition of the new pre-Olympic Nike gear in the 798 Art District in Beijing. Eri and I visited the gallery when we were in Beijing earlier in the year and managed to have a wander round the (then) building site of the gallery before any of the migrant workers toiling there for less money-a-week-than-a-pair-of-the-shoes-on-display could be bothered to get us out. Of the new pieces on display, I like the Air Max 90 / Air Free mashup. It&#8217;s nicer than the previous Wildwood versions that have appeared before and also preserves the Air Max bubble in the rear. I may have to pick a pair up when they are released. I also like the Octogon Dunks as a concept, but probably wouldn&#8217;t wear them. Click for more pictures:</p>

<p>Also, in a stunning effort to create the most self-serving and pointless way to help the victims of the Chinese Earthquake, Japanese &#8220;style guru&#8221;, Hiroshi Fujiwara, has announced a collaborative effort with Nike; <em>The Fragment Design x Nike Sichuan Panda Court Traditions</em> (unbelievably, that is the actual name &#8211; homeless Pandas&#8217;re more important than people then, Hiroshi?). They will (to allow the tiniest modicum of humanity to be assigned to Fujiwara) be auctioned off to raise money for the victims, but considering how long it will take to make the shoes and how (comparatively) little money they will raise, this seems like the astonishingly offensive attempt to gain publicity through the deaths of 10,000 people who would never be able to afford anything from Fragment Design at the best of times. Poor, poor show Mr Fujiwara.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eri and I took a lovely tour of some of the world&#8217;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&#8217;s Cathedral (also very good), and even Machu Pichu (totally pointless &#8211; 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 <del dateTime="2008-02-12T04:37:24+00:00">pervert</del> pundit, Lily Franky, who did a version of the Leaning Tower at Pisa being attacked by <a href="http://www.odenkun.net/" title="Oden Kun" class="lightwindow page-options">Oden Kun</a> 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&#8217;days.</p>
