Hello! Bouncing off of that ask regarding rain patterns in kimono, I was curious if lightning is ever used as a motif in kimonos, and if so, what sort of vocabulary is used to describe it? ^^

I've read about the Inazuma pattern before, but I was wondering if there were any others I wasn't aware of, since there's so many different vocabulary terms for kimono patterns!

Thank you for your time!

It is indeed generically named inazuma 稲妻, or also kaminari 雷/raimon 雷文 :)

Lightning is mainly represented via thick lines curling at squares angles (sometimes difficult to tell apart from sayagata) or zigzag lightning bolts shapes (Pikachu's tail style). Another common representation is a bit harder to catch as it looks a lot like matsukawa (pine bark pattern).

Another thunder-adjacent concept coming to me is mitsudomoe 三つ巴 (circle made of 3 magatama/comma-shaped jewels):

This symbol is often used on percussions (like taiko 太鼓, gakudaiko 楽太鼓) which were/are still used for Shinto rituals purpose. This symbol can so symbolize the rumbling sound of thunder (which can drive evil spirits away)... hence why you find it on the dendendaiko of thunder god Raijin 雷神 or used for some oni representations.

Попробую повторить один проект игрового геймпада из интернета. Люблю не обычные устройства. Кажется в нем нет особо сложных деталей, да и электроника реализованна в нескольких вариантах( на любой вкус и цвет)

Однозначто это моя самая большая работа лобзиком. Врятле кто-то угадает что сей девайс будет делать.

Вообще штука наглухо японская. Любят они такое. И меня вечно к странному тянет. Не думаю что прям буду играть. Хотя мне наверное полезно с точки зрения нейронных связей. Пока просто интерес сделать и чтобы работало!

It's funny that Taiko drums are these big and powerful instruments but whenever I hear them I end up thinking about these two instead

More information under the cut!

Caitlin Cooke: She is rich but spend too much shopping so she has to work to earn money now. She loves fashion and taking care of her appearance, she wears a cute butterfly clip.

Not necessarily propaganda but check out this cute art by @wyattther3

I woke up wondering if I could use my Taiko no Tatsujin drum game peripheral as a MIDI controller for recording actual taiko drum sounds

Turns out, I can!! 🪘🥁💥

FFS I've just realised the full video didn't upload. Rest is on YouTube if you want more.

It's absolutely wild tbh, and now I'm wondering what other game controllers I can do cool MIDI stuff with

Btw if you like the music in this, it's on my new album, Home for Hitodama - I'd love you to check it out

KRIST’S LEGENDARY TAIKO DRUM SOLO

He’d probably be the first to quibble with the adjective, but that’s how I think of it.

In April of 2023, Krist kicked off his first solo tour around Asia in Japan. This tour was three years in the making, originally planned for 2020 when the world shut down. In that time, he did more planning and made it even bigger, including different features for every individual country he’d visit as a nod to their respective cultures.

Krist has committed a lot of time and effort in recent years to vocal training—to the extent that I think he’s genuinely the best live singer GMMTV has. He’s dynamic, he has incredible breath control, he knows how to improvise, how to move around the stage, how to belt. I saw his solo concert twice in November, and I count it as the second best I’ve ever seen. (The top can’t be beat because of Feelings.)

However! He’s not new to music in general, and has said over and over that he still considers himself more of a musician than a singer. He’s been playing the drums far, far longer, and in fact, that’s Singto’s first memory of him at Kasetsart: drummer in a band.

So when he visited Japan for the first leg of his tour, he decided to pay tribute to one of Japan’s most revered instruments: the taiko drum.

He studied not only how to play it correctly, but also its cultural and religious significance. And before he began his performance onstage, he wai’d before the drum to show his respect. It’s even been immortalized in chibi art form.

Then he casually shattered not just my whole brain but the whole brains of many.

[Vid Source: @KristFanClub]

It was such a popular performance that he recreated it for his final two concerts in Bangkok using a different type of taiko drum. (I think the one he used in Japan was a local rental.)

And while we don’t have full, official footage of the concert in Japan, Krist’s fan club was wonderful enough to record segments like the one above and share them afterward, and it’s become one of my all-time favorite performances of his.

Krist has had a vast and loyal fanbase in Japan ever since SOTUS aired in 2016, so I thought it was lovely that he started his tour there. In a behind-the-scenes interview after the concert, he said he was amazed and moved that his Japanese fans had already memorized a song he’d only released days before. And sang it with him. In Thai. He said something like, “I realized that they support all my work, and it makes me so happy.”

And in return for that love, he gave his Japanese fans a beautiful concert filled with respect for their country and culture and music.

That’s why, to me, it’s a legendary performance.
