Handed in my thesis! To be examined in January. Potentially turned into a book somewhere in Europe. Thank you for all who have contributed to this work!
博士論文を出した! 審査は1月。欧州のどこかで本になるとかならないとか。協力してくれた皆さんどうもありがとう!
One year from submitting my thesis, I’m finally Dr Kensho! It was quite tough to go through major amendments to the thesis but now it is much deeper and bolder. Thank you to everyone who has helped me, inspired me, moved me and empathised with me. Now life can move on again!

Just received uplifting news that my PhD has been selected for Best Doctoral Dissertation Prize among those completed in 2020 at my second supervisor’s university, Anhalt University in Dessau, Germany. Thank you for choosing such a non-mainstream, experimental research🙏

Just received timely -but long-waited- gifts from Basel! I've been rewriting my whole thesis (again), adding new contents and turning it into a new single context for over a year. Humbly recommend all those concerned with design (research), movement, human senses and embodiment.
Passed my third and last Interim (end-of-academic-year) exam
