Volume II of my temporary files opens on a difficult period of my life, during my rehabilitation at the Saint-Yves clinic following a fairly serious health accident (see my series « Heart Passages » published last year)
It ends at work, and in the immediate vicinity of my company’s offices.
(Because yes, I also photograph at work :-) )

Yes let's meet autumn as our mid-autumn festival is coming! Things do converge mysteriously with or without you knowing or seeing, finding the connections is no big achievement but brings small pleasures to our lives.
I was in Seoul 2 weeks ago meeting Mr. Nam who's company Appree just launched "Leaf-it" and already shipped to Japan's Marcs International for distribution. The leaf post-it comes in 8 different types, each with various sizes and colors of leaves. I hope they are coming to our stores soon.
Two days ago I received a Mackinaw Autumn package from Field Notes, another hint of autumn coming, in colors I'm so very in love with. I regret that I missed their summer collection (Butcher Orange, Butcher Blue, Grass Stain Green). Hmmm.... so Tradio Nature just came to me, Leaf-it and Mackinaw Autumn are both on my desk now, they are all here to set something in motion, the welcoming of our 3,000 years old tradition, mid-autumn festival.
Tasty moon cakes await us, beautiful lanterns hanging all over the places, family gathering dinner and Chiu Chau tea ceremony at home..... such a pleasant anticipation. I particularly like what the shops do on Queen's Road West, about 5-6 stores normally selling incense for worship now hang hundreds of lanterns so beautifully which lighten up the streets. I was there with family on Sunday night, people were there lingering in such warm atmosphere. Tomorrow we will definitely go the park with our lanterns.
PS. My son told me something funny this evening: "God has no time to talk to us, because he has to make up some homework for us, so God is very difficult and we have to thank Him". Where did he get the ideas?

Field Notes (コクヨ測量野帳). 80 pages, 3mm squared.
The field notes is used and loved by surveyors and field scientists for long time. Kokuyo, the Japanese largest stationery company, sells field notes in several format : sketch book (quadrille), level book, and water resistant. I use quadrille as same for index cards.
Umesao and Kawakita, Japanese field scientists, both wrote books about productivity and index cards in 1960's. According to their books, they used this kind of field notes. Their books became de-facto standard, bible, for intellectual productivity and knowledge work in Japan.
I have been using the field notes after my job. Through my own experience, I found the field notes can be used not only for field work, but also personal idea capturing media.
I hack it by adding elastic band as you see in the picture above. It enables to put a pencil between current writing pages. I use a pencil itself as bookmark. I open current page in a second.

This is where the magic happens. Well the creative magic at least. ;)
I just reorganized my space this weekend. Hung some new pieces on the wall and also bought the mStand to support my macbook.
Off to the right on my desk are some of my sketch books that I like to keep for quick inspiration. There is also the folder where I keep all my 52 profile sketches.
On the left of my desk I have Levi the Whale from @squaredeye and wall-e and a lego man that's also a flashlight (given to me by the wonderful @plasticmind).
The calender on the wall is from the awesome guys @FieldNotesBrand.
Right next to my calendar I hung up an old empty box I bought from a flea market. I like the texture and age it presents itself with. I like the emptiness of it and it helps remind me that anything is possible.
Above that I have two framed illustrations from the great Mark @Hemeon. He did these two quick illustrations while we were in Austin for SXSW late one night in a diner. The one of Rogie is absolutely perfect.
On the top I framed a page out of an old anatomy book. I love vintage anatomy drawings and think this one is perfect. It reminds me more of a portrait though, and I guess that's why I hung it up.
Next to the anatomy drawing is a printed piece from Japanese artist Nara Yoshitomo. I bought this while living in Japan about 5 years ago. His works is wonderful.

I don't think to post product images on Flickr that often, but maybe I should. This photo's nothing special photographically, but i'm excited about it because I've been shooting FIELD NOTES product photos for a few years now, and I'm finally getting to the point where I can get everything right in-camera, and I barely do any post-production work. This one was less than an hour from assignment to web and I did absolutely no postproduction, other than evening out the background to match "web black."
"I never knew a town could die and people would keep on living there."..."Kind of like ghosts, huh?" Sam said and laughed ..."Be careful you don't turn into a ghost while you're here." -Stanley Gordon West, 'Blind Your Ponies'
This house is on the very south eastern edge of the ghost town of Galata, Montana. It sits by its self overlooking the rail road tracks. Through the upstairs window there are some water stained tin tiles lining the walls. I would love to see inside this place.
This is Galata, Montana. It is almost a complete ghost town. There really are no more businesses open. Only a few homes are still lived in. This town has an interesting history and there are so many abandoned buildings that I would love to know the story behind.
Here is a video from when I drove through this great ghost town:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0R55_f-ndA
"Galata, east of Shelby, is near Willow Creek, one of the streams that flows into the reservoir created by Tiber Dam. It was a trading point and cattle shipping station on the Great Northern’s High Line. In 1901 David R. McGinnis, first immigration agent of the Great Northern Railroad, was so impressed by the beauty of the spot that he filed a claim for the land near the railroad where it crossed dry Galata Creek. McGinnis hired a surveyor to lay out a town and the following year brought carpenters and lumber from Kalispell to build a two-room house.
Cattlemen from the Marias River ranges brought their cattle to Galata for shipment to eastern markets. On cold winter days they were glad to have the protection of the two little rooms in the only building in “town.” The house burned down in 1904, but in 1905 McGinnis began rebuilding Galata. He built a two-room real estate office and an eight-room hotel, and eventually induced a storekeeper to set up shop in one of the rooms of the real estate office. Ranches would drive in with a chuckwagon and load up on $500—sometimes even $1,000—worth of supplies, pay in cash and return home for the long winter. After a few years, Galata’s only merchant closed shop and the hotel was abandoned; McGinnis gave up his dream of a town and moved to Kalispell.
One day he was surprised to receive a check in the mail. It was marked “back rent,” and was from a cowhand who had moved into the deserted Galata store and had done a good business with dryland farmers who were then settling on the old-time open range. By 1910 Galata had four lumberyards and five store. (from Cheney’s Names on the Face of Montana, Mountain Press Publishing Company)
Near Galata, residents and visitors can enjoy one of the most versatile recreational areas in Montana, Tiber Dam-Lake Elwell. The lake provides excellent year-round angling for Walleye, Northern and Sauger Pike, native trout, Ling, Perch and others. Some may want to try their hand at bow fishing for carp that often exceed 20 pounds. For boaters and swimmers the area boasts over 50 miles of shoreline, a marina, and four well-maintained boat ramps located strategically around the lake. There are also numerous campground areas.
While you're at Tiber you'll observe spectacular windblown sandstone formations, Indian rings, and one of the largest earthen dikes in the world! The area surrounding Tiber contains excellent hunting, and a unique birdwatching area is located along the Marias River below Tiber Dam." -Montana's Russell Country Website
This is a great article, just scroll town to the one titled “Caught between two worlds, one dead, the other struggling to be born.”

This is a link to a neat photo taken near Galata many, many years ago:
Even prettier in person. Seen here with my 10-year-old Space Pen, a General's Kimberlin 9xxB and my favorite brass sharpener. www.pragmatik.org/blog
This box came with hankies in it a few years ago. I just realized a few weeks ago that it fits pencils perfectly.
(Those summer Field Notes are all full and archived now.)
" love my new Nordic Side Effect! Love the color combo with solar, love the contrast with the Ultraviolet interior of my Large Cafe Bag, love the way it holds all of the bits and bobs in a tidy contained way while still being flexible...squishable, if you will. That is the one big bonus I find between the Dyneema version of this bag and the Ballistic. Both are solid, durable, well-serving, bags...but I like the give that the Dyneema has. It easily holds what you see in the picture--Which includes a pencil pouch with four writing instruments and a small leather cover with two Fieldnotes notebooks inside. My phone is also usually in there along with a granola bar as well. Pop that puppy into the LCB with lunch, a book, and my students' papers, and voila, streamlined awesomeness. " --KmK
