In addition to Japanese swords, I am working with Yame Tea (by Yasuhiko Kiya), Takatori Ware (by Hekizan Onimaru), Kurume Kasuri (by Gouzo Shimokawa), Ohkawa Kumiko (by Masato Kinoshita), Nabeshima Dantsu(by Shin Kinoshita), and Higozougan (by Kentaro Inada). Eventually, I have some plans to develop into an inbound project that will lead to a trip to Kyushu area from overseas.
Substack articles are free right now, but in the future I would like to ask 200-300 yen per month as a subscription fee, and I would like to cover production costs such as coverage, video shooting, and distribution with your subscription fees. I would appreciate it if you could take this opportunity to read the past articles and give us your frank opinions. And I would be grateful if you could continue to subscribe even after the spread of this activity and the fee. If you read one of the substack articles, you will find an icon at the end of an article where you can register your subscription with your email address.
The project is underway to improve the website and deliver events and works of craftsmen using digital technology; e.g. I am exploring how to utilize Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to deliver the appearance of a master which make it feel close to you.
I would like to develop this activity into an independently profitable company management and send the craftsman individuals overseas as a long tail business.
If you have any question, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for reading this till the end!
