House…Jesus fucking Christ, one of the strangest movies I’ve ever seen. I don’t know why, but I had this impression it’d be dark and grimy and kind of House of Leaves oily, nervous scary. But it wasn’t. It was bright, unnaturally so, and odd and somehow almost lighthearted while still being eerie.
Shiba Ryotaro Memorial Museum, Osaka, Japan. The Shiba Ryotaro Museum is the former house of the Japanese author Shiba Ryotaro. Inside, one sees the huge bookshelf which is 11 meters high with 20,000 books in it. With these books the author wrote about 500 historical novels, essays, critical essays and many other works. The museum was designed by Ando Tadao, a famous Japanese architect, to show the creative world of Shiba Ryotaro. (Photo by Alex Roman)
