What a crazy weekend!   I was called in to do a live translation / MC for Detroit Institute of Art – Japan Cultural Day, with an old friend Yoko Ito of Mellin Productions.

The event was on Sat. Nov. 4 & Sun. Nov. 5, but the preparation for this event (the opening of Japanese gallery) started a year ago.   Details and class they paid attention to this event was amazing.

Since I was running around everywhere (3 shows a day – plus 1 seminar), I couldn’t take many pictures.    But here’s one – from the backstage.
