Reminded me a lot of Animal Superpowers by Chris Woebken and Kenichi Okada (2007) https://chriswoebken.com/ANIMAL-SUPERPOWERS https://chriswoebken.com/ANIMAL-SUPERPOWERS Kenichi's Wide Eyes: https://web.archive.org/web/20180223030034/http://www.kenichiokada.com/projects/2008/wideeyes.html https://web.archive.org/web/20180223030034/http://www.kenich... And lastly, Meiwa Denki, a Japanese artist and performer who made some beautiful head+eye gear experiments on a similar vein, which I had the fortune to try in his Tokyo studio back in 2008… but can't find any online reference for :/

Wait who did you go to his studio with in 2008? My friend Cesar Harada invited me along when he went with the kids from his class in i think late winter 2008, I believe they were a Parisian design school but the memory is vague

  We must have met then. Hi! Cesar was studying with me in London (RCA) and Tokyo was our “school trip” that year.

    Aha yes RCA it was I remember now! If your memory is better than mine you might remember a very lost and confused Spanish boy with messy hair who was barely surviving in Tokyo, that would have been me. I remember a get together with your crew in a house way in the outskirts of Tokyo. Also remember trying to get an internship with Maywa Denki and failing, but someone in your class did get it.
