Jean Snow
I've been meaning to write something about Jean Snow's design and pop culture blog for a long time. Without doubt, Snow's site is one of the best places to go for what's happening in Tokyo's often chaotic art and design scene.
On the landing page to his site, he describes himself as someone who, "lives and breathes design and pop culture in Tokyo -- sustained by an unhealthy addiction to magazines and frequent visits to his favorites cafes." And this is exactly what you get - an eclectic mix of design news, pop culture, gallery reviews and J-POP.
In addition to his website, Snow contributes to a number of other websites and publications, such as Gizmodo, The Japan Times and the Superfuture Superguides.
Snow is also responsible for introducing me to the joys of buying t-shirts online. Since reading about Threadless on Snow's site a few years ago, I must have bought ten of their designs. Perhaps Snow should ask to be put on the payroll?
