A street photo from Taito Ward in Tokyo, Japan. In a side street, the photo's angle looks through the outside seating of a pub with some wine bottles on a small table, and lanterns hung from the sun blinds. In the background, we can see some people walking, or standing and have a chat.

A street photo from Taito Ward in Tokyo, Japan. It looks like kind of a still life with a multitude of umbrellas hung on a drain pipe, empty drink crates piled up in the background, and some walls and cables segmenting the frame.

A street photo from Taito Ward in Tokyo, Japan. Here we have the exterior of an old "Kissaten", a Japanese-style tea room that is also a coffee shop. The interesting point is the name of the shop; it is called "Smell".

I think this might be my favorite Macrochip I've made so far:
Taito Bubble Bobble Arcade ROM (A78-01)
12x4in (30x10cm) slate tile... trivet? beer flight coaster?
See the other 148 designs I've made here: https://evilgeniuslabs.org/macrochips

We regularly monitor the visitor experience and have noticed that our Arkadnik playing Pac-Man was not fully utilized, as it only allowed for one player (blue controls). We have now replaced it with the cooperative game Bubble Bobble (Taito, 1986)

A #SobuLine train crosses the #SumidaRiverBridge in #Taito ward #Tokyo #Japan #日本 #台東区 #総武線 #隅田川橋梁

Dutch angle of a truss bridge with the commuter train passing over. I was on a boat, heard the train behind me, turned around to take this picture. That's why it's an odd angle but it turned out okay.
