Digital Stops Nature’s Time

Mr. Yoro Mengji: “Living things are constantly moving and changing, but informatization is an act that stops that.

If you take a video of your cat, you’ll know exactly what I mean. If you watch the video the next day, it is exactly the same video, but the cat in real life is one day older. You never know if they might inadvertently die the next day.

It’s the same with people. We are supposed to be able to read ahead in our information-fixated world, but the living world is, in fact, unreadable.”

Living with the magnificent nature of Okinawa makes one realize that living creatures are only a small part of nature.

It is a complete misunderstanding that we feel as if we have been given eternal life by digitalization and information technology, and the earth and the universe will pass away regardless of the circumstances of living creatures. The time has come and gone.

While I was thinking about this, Mr. Naoki Sakai presented me with a beautiful plant wreath. Pinning up nature is not a bad idea.
