A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
An Artist. He self-educated his two-dimentional paintings and his three-dimentional craftwork from early childhood.Later on, he adopted himself into Tokyo's club culture and he developed an unique style in the live painting area, where he staged himself in various shows within and out of Japan. He also provides his artwork in other fields such as apparel, movie advertising, and the popular music industry includingthe album jacket art-work of B'z (a platinum Japanese Pop/Rock group). In 2004, he held his first one-man exhibition at "nou Laboratory" in Yoyogiuehara, Tokyo where most of his work were sold out. In 2005, he experienced many sessions with local musicians in USA. All he did was paint throughout his stay. In 2006, he released his first DVD "Puzzle City" which features his live paintings in a Tokyo, a city he depicted as to be a "puzzle". In 2007, he participated in "KAVKI BOIZ" (a visual-kei rock band featuring "miyavi" as the leader) as a live painter / stage performer and joined the tour which opened in Los Angeles (California, USA), and followed by a National tour (Japan) and the Seoul Performance (South Korea). From 2008, he is serving the roll of a presenter with DJ Hanger on an Internet TV Show "BAKUHATSU!!MAN". Also, he holds workshops and special classrooms for children at various Elementary schools and Kindergartens where he positively faces the children with various themes.He also shows himself in magazine advertisements, movies, and promotion videos for having a unique and creative character.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
