Yoshiyuki - The Park 3

Az 1970-es években Kohei Josijuki egy 35mm-es kamerát, infravörös filmet és vakut használva örökítette meg a tokiói Sindzsuku, Jojogi és Aojama kerületek parkjaiban tilalmas találkákra összegyűlő párokat és a bozótban rejtőzködő – vagy néha az aktusban is részt vevő – közönségüket. Az amatőrnek tűnő felvételek nem csak hetero- és homoszexuális alanyaik szexuális tevékenységéről rántják le a sötétség leplét, de a megfigyeléssel, a voyeurizmussal kapcsolatos kérdések átgondolását is kiprovokálják. A felvételek Japán ritkán látott arcának dokumentumai; amint Martin Parr írja a The Photobook: A History II. kötetében: A Park „nagyszerű társadalmi dokufotó-sorozat, mely tökéletesen ragadja meg a Tokióhoz hasonló metropoliszok szexuális és emberi kapcsolatait oly gyakran kísérő magányosságot, szomorúságot és elkeseredettséget”. link

We have a biological drive. We eat when we’re hungry, drink when we’re thirsty, have sex to satisfy our carnal urges. We also have a second drive—we respond to rewards and punishments in our environment. But what we’ve forgotten—and what the science shows—is that we also have a third drive. We do things because they’re interesting, because they’re engaging, because they’re the right things to do, because they contribute to the world. [...] When we lacked the ability to efficiently connect and collaborate with each other, that intrinsic motivation often didn’t surface. So we assumed that productive, public activities revolved around extrinsic motivation and external rewards. And we assumed that all rewards were substitutable for all other rewards.

In the 1990s, Paul Romer revolutionized economics. In the aughts, he became rich as a software entrepreneur. Now he’s trying to help the poorest countries grow rich—by convincing them to establish foreign-run “charter cities” within their borders. Romer’s idea is unconventional, even neo-colonial—the best analogy is Britain’s historic lease of Hong Kong. And against all odds, he just might make it happen.
