Searched Again on Karakui: Tuning Your Sanshin
Looks like there are still a lot of you who are finding us through a search for learning to tune your sanshin. We posted an entry about a neat little freeware app called Sankichi-kun at the beginning of the month. The only thing is that the app is in Japanese so here’s a quickie explanation…

Whatever Happened to the DotW?
A feature of my previous Okinawan pop culture blogs was the DotW, or the Discography of the Week. Long time readers of my blogs know that although I called it DotW, entries were posted rather sporadically (mostly due to the amount of free time I had to work on the discography) and the main focus…

Pages Problem Fixed
So I added a new one. 😀 It’s my long overdue attempt at a filmography for movies that were shot on location in Okinawa. Enjoy! (Thank goodness for the WordPress.com forums.)
