It was born in England in the 17th century.During this period peep shows were often created to celebrate major events like the Great Exhibition in London. This subjects included Bible scenes,views of foreign lands,life at court,sporting events,battles,shipwrecks and earthquakes.
This is my work. The theme is "Christmas in Hamburg".
This is a new years card.

yokan
Yokan has a only black square form.It seems jast abstraction. It's not thing that Children like.
You should enjoy it in a dim room, looking at a jet-black lacquer ware. In darkness it shines dully as if it takes shadows in the room. It likes a microcosm. How beautiful...it is a time to dare to eat it... You will attach the microcosm with a toothpick and enjoy the taste of microcosm...
It is not only enjoyment of food but also intellectual delight.
1.cell and cell nucleus??? 2.galaxy.....it expressed the stars by gold leaf 3.flow of a river 4.Mount Fuji(Japanese symbol!)
Each Japanese cake has each season,or story,not only yokan.
Although they fit in your palm,sometimes a cake express begriff like science,cosmos,history. I respect sweets makers who think season forward,and make them by new ingenuity.

"Snakes and ladders" /1Euro shop/Berlin
Do you know the board game "Snakes and ladders"?
It is a classic children's board game.
It is said that Asian have a spiral cyclical sense of time.At one point
the time comes back and the same passes. After death,life begins again
and it grows up again and grows old.... In contrast,it is said that
Western people have a linear sense of time.The start and end are exist
clearly.After death,it goes to heaven or hell.It begins never again.
This game originated in India as a game based on morality called Vaikuntapaali or Paramapada Sopanam (the ladder to salvation). The rule is simple.On the cast of the dice,each player follow a route marked on the gameboard.
They land on the lower-numbered end of
the squares with a "ladder", they can move their token up to the
higher-numbered square. If they land on the higher-numbered square of a
pair with a "snake" , they must move their token down to the
lower-numbered square.
It is interesting that such a spiritual game is spread out eventually all over the world. I bought one in the 1Euro shop in Germany.

Do the "perfect black" exist?
I majored in textile design in college.
I had to dye many times till I got the color I want."To dye jet black" is difficult.I found it was not perfect when it dried. So I dyed a lot of times.
I use computer to paint now.I love the technique to color pictures over and over like textile ones.But it is easy to get "Perfect black".All I need do is choose "Black 100%"
But ...is it really black?
Black in computer means just the monitor outputs nothing.
It gives off a negative vibe,comparing to feeling what I have been absorbed in black when I am in darkness.
Black absorbs all of the visible spectrum.
By the way,if you think of something black,you may remember "the black hole".
According to the calculations by Dr.Hawking,even the black holl don't have 100% black.

Koinoboris are simple shape.They are just
circular cylindrical shape with a hole in the middle.
And,I rememeber a song "All creatures are cylindrical shape" by Professor Tatsuo Motokawa.He is a singer-songwiter biologist.
For me, "The Children's Day" is a day I rediscover the fact that "All creatures are cylindrical shape".

The complicated geometry images might make you feel euphoria.
From where such images come?
Roger N. Shepard, Professor of Psychology at Stanford University, states a hypothesis that such images come from the law of perception.
He supposes they are images from the construction of sensorium.
I made this cartoon by software "A New Kind of Science Explorer".
It is an application that can visualize the calculation result.
Do you think this is similer to the image what you can see when you close your eyes?
The images might have a key solve the secret of the law of perception.

"A few years ago,a lot of mosquitoes swarmed over in Roma.
The investigation revealed they breed in sewage that have been used as long as 2000 years. Roman found that they have never cleaned for 2000 years."
When I went to Roma 2 years ago,my friend told such stories about Roman sewage and Roman character.
Though it was only 2 day stay,I was impressed by Roman fountain.
Because they are so funny design.Men with evil face,ugly dolphins or lions are spewing water.
Surprisingly,the sculptures of the books,the terrine dish,or the pinecones are spewing water as well as the creatures.
I was deeply moved they created such exciting sculptures as the outlet of the sewage system.
I want to investigate more next time.(I hope)
So I am making the Roman fountain map.
All roads lead to Rome.
All water could lead to Roma also.
I might drink water tomorrow a ugly dolphin is spouting today.

This image is based on mountain path in Tibet.
Imagine where they are going.
I am interested in "doughnut shape".
It is often said that the RPG world is not sphere but doughnut shape.
They disappear at the top of the world and appear from the bottom of the world.
They disappear at the western edge and appear from the eastern edge.
(Take a square and glue the top and bottom edges together.you get a tube,and then the side edges together ..you get a torus)
Galileo should be shocked that the fictitious inhabitants live such a bizarre astronomical object.
How does the gravity work?
(by wiki)
On the other hand,the inner tubes you often see in the sea are made of rectangles.
I feel it's cool,and then I drew the Tibet's mountain path.
So to get back to my question,the answer is ..."They continue to walk forever".

Do you know "girih"?
It is intricate patterns covered Islamic mosques in Middle Ages.
It was assumed that the patterns were created using a compass and a straightedge, but now it seems that ancient Muslims may have stumbled on some advanced geometry, not discovered in the Western world until 500 years later.
This is an article by physicists from Harvard and Princeton in 2007.
They say that you can make intricate patterns by just five different shapes of tiles.
I made these five tiles.
I arranged them like Islamic artisans.
I got a complicated maze like the following!

Mr.O,the science editor liked my drawing of uroboros.He associated it with network.
A complex network is learning of conection for human relationships, infection,neurons,etc.
One of the topic in network science is "Six degrees of separation".This refers to the idea that, if a person is one step away from each person they know and two steps away from each person who is known by one of the people they know, then everyone is an average of six "steps" away from each person on Earth.
This book is written about "measuring human relationship networks".For example,the degree of distance between you and this book author,Mr.Matuda is...only degree 3! Because you know me(this website'author),I know science editor,Mr.O, and Mr.O knows Mr.Matuda. You are 3 steps away from Mr.Matuda.
This is exactly "smallworld".

I am interested in it.
So I imagine what situations they used them.They are obviously illegible.

It must be a message to someone on opposite side of glass.
