Gekko Shashin
A string of tunes experienced best when flipping the pages of Nobuyoshi Araki's early sketchbooks, his recently published Gekko Shashin.

Gekkoso was the name of the generic sketchbooks Araki pasted photos into, which simply took the name of the art store chain, meaning "moonlight." Now late in his career and life, one can imagine him browsing those young images and ideas, looking in the moonlight toward an initial dawn.

Japan Railways ditties are audio markers you hear on a journey through any central neighborhood in Tokyo. Each unique station notification buzzes your aural memory in case you succumb to deeper thoughts or doze and forget to get off at your stop.

"Babble," which is played at moments preceding door closures, transitions this two chapter set from love to ashes.

Purple Heart
He don't hang around with the gang no more, he don't do the wild things that he did before, he used to act bad, used to but he quit it, it makes me so sad, I know that he did it for me. And I can see his heart is out in the street.

Can't seem to find a place to turn.
Can't seem to find any place to go.
Once in awhile I meet a few people.
And instead of asking very nice, they try to give me some advice.
On maybe, how to act.
On maybe, how to walk.
On maybe, how to talk.
They think they know where it's at.
They think they can think about ....
