Life in Japan: Technology
Life As a JET Comments Off on Life in Japan: Technology
On Saturday, I spoke at a Q&A Panel for NEJETAA on technology in Japan. For an informal debriefing, I did aite, but I finished feeling like I could’ve done better.
I thought I’d do a recap here and add the stuff I forgot to mention originally. This info should be helpful for anyone who’s going to stay in Japan, not just JETs, so let me know in the comments what you think.
My street cred is living in the mountainside of Japan from 2009-12, so it’s very possible some of this is a teeny-tad outdated. Read More

JQ Magazine: Video Game Tunes Launch World Tour with ‘rePlay: Symphony of Heroes’
Article/Journalism, JQ Magazine, Music Comments Off on JQ Magazine: Video Game Tunes Launch World Tour with ‘rePlay: Symphony of Heroes’
rePlay: Symphony of Heroes continues its tour at Jones Hall in Houston on July 5. (Jane Dempster)
By David Namisato (Aomori-ken CIR, 2002-04) for JQ magazine. David is an illustrator in Toronto who spent two years on JET as a CIR while also teaching half of Ajigasawa-machi’s elementary schools. David is best known for Life After the B.O.E., a webcomic and graphic novel he created about the wacky and wonderful experiences of the JET Programme. David is currently working on Mark to Minna (マークと皆/Mark and the Gang) a yon-koma (四コマ/ four-panel) comic strip about the life of Japanese-Canadian boy and his family in Toronto for Torja magazine, a Japanese-language magazine in Toronto, and also on his fantasy action-adventure comic, The Long Kingdom (check out issues 1, 2, and 3). See all of David’s projects at www.namisato.org.
As a child in the late ’80s, I would pause a video game mid-play just to enjoy the music. In the early ’90s, I had the good fortune of having a classmate from Japan who would lend me his CDs of orchestral performances of popular video game music. Music plays such an important role in setting the mood and pace in a video game, and even outside the context of the game, the same music maintains its impact, and is a delight to listen to.
For the past decade, Jason Michael Paul has been producing orchestral performances of video game music. His concerts have toured the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia, appealing to a wide audience of video game fans. And as Paul said to me in a recent interview for JQ, the concerts are also an opportunity to expand people’s awareness of the art of video game music. Perhaps you have heard of, or even attended one of Paul’s concerts such as Dear Friends: Music from Final Fantasy in 2004, PLAY! A Video Game Symphony in 2006, or The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses in 2012-13.
This year, Jason Michael Paul Productions brings us the rePlay: Symphony of Heroes international tour, which made its world premiere at the Sydney Opera House in March, and its U.S. premiere in Florida on April 19. Performed by a live orchestra of 68 musicians and a 24-person choir, and featuring award-winning music from 16 classic games with all-new arrangements by the original composers as well as the world premiere of new music, rePlay: Symphony of Heroes will thrill fans of video games and classical music alike.
