Tatsuya had an interview with Metropolis, Japan’s Number 1 English magazine (paper and digital). He talked mainly about Club Model Electronic, new digital download service and website launched by his own label Model Electronic. We hope you will visit the interview page and enjoy the article.

This interview mainly consists of the story about Club Model Electronic ( Captain Funk Official Store, as of 2010 ), including the introduction of me.

Thanks a lot to Metropolis & Don for your interest.

手軽に陶芸気分を味わえる素材として「オーブン陶土」というものがあるが、海外では「ポリマークレイ」という素材が圧倒的に主流。しかし仕上がりは樹脂っぽくて、目指す方向性も質感も全くの別物。100均などでも買えるこのオーブン陶土は、陶芸文化が身近にある日本だからこそ生まれた、本当にユニークで素晴らしいクラフト素材だと思う。とは言え、造形に関しては今のところ、自分で作るよりも達人が作るプロセスを動画で眺める方が楽しい。

先日の話の続き。僕は「価値が価格を生むのであって、逆はない」と思う。価格(お金)は価値の引換券でしかない。それが今は「価格が価格を生み、吊り上げる」だけで、誰もその背後にある意味を直視しようとしない。「インフレ」や「デフレ」という都合の良いラベルは、その本質を問う重みを失わせる。さらに言えば、世の中には「価格化されていない価値」が山ほどある。数字や統計も、現実を切り取った不完全な影絵に過ぎないのだ。

渡米直後、モノやサービスの「価格」と「価値」の乖離に驚く毎日だった。デフレ時代の日本の企業努力や工夫に馴染んでいた自分にとって、価値に対して適正と思える値段の数倍から数十倍を支払うために猛烈に稼がなくてはならない人生は幸せなんだろうか?そんな疑問を抱いていた頃に出会った『メイカーズ』。著者が理想郷として描いた「デジタルと製造/DIYの融合」が実際に開花したのは、アメリカではなく中国その他のアジアの現場だった。
