Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
Just like how we opened a year ago, gr/eats is having a promotion. Eat a meal and you get a nice prize right over at gr2. It’s been a zoo! Restaurants are tough and I laugh when people tell us to open one elsewhere like in NYC. I just can’t do it. Today, we also decided that the new site should be up next week. This blog and others will be on the front page. It should be six total and hopefully fresh and new often! Also the lounge! Yes our lounge will have a hopefully daily update on what the hot topics are of the day. We may recruit someone from our lounge to help do this for us. The podcasts will be right up there too.

Martin and I are going to be at Harvard GSD. Last time we were there, it was bogus. We were on a panel with a bunch of artists, and the subject of racism came up, then one of the artists stepped up and said they’re too young, they won’t know what racism is all about. And proceeded to mic hog. In the end, he looked like a dick, especially since he was an Asian american artist censoring another Asian American person from talking. This time, it’s all about Giant Robot, and we’ll hopefully get there on time. Plane lands at 5pm, we talk at 6pm. I don’t like cutting it that close, but oh well, that’s what the plane ticket says. A little more info is on the lounge.

Aya Takano is one of the best Japanese artists. Of course, she’s part of the Superflat, Takashi Murakami clan, so that means, she’s managed tightly. I’ve been a fan for a while and thankfully, she’s one of the nicest persons around. If you’re in Tokyo, you have a little bit of time to check out her show at Parco. It ends 4/24! Parco is one of the coolest places since it’s actually on the top floor of a mall type of building that’s filled with “cool” types of shops. Every exhibit has a store at the end of the show. I once saw a Robocon show years and years ago, so you can imagine the goods there. We got some too! Check it out.
