Greetings
Siva and I had planned to have me join the Sivacracy team yesterday, but we were worried that the simultaneous releases of the new Coldplay and White Stripes albums would really suck the oxygen out of any self-introduction. Since most of my published work is targeted at mopey, lovestruck teenagers and vaguely creepy alt-country-punk fans, we thought it might be better to wait a day to hold off.
My work is mostly on Japanese politics and culture, and you can read more about me at my webpage. When I travel to Japan later this summer to begin a year's stay at the University of Tokyo, I'll probably blog a bit more regularly about matters on that side of the Pacific, especially when they intersect with the blog's larger concerns. Or when they can bring greater glory to Sivacracy. For the time being, expect a lot of misdirected anger -- drawn almost entirely from self-loathing and bitterness -- channeled at summer films.
That said, I'm honored to be on the team and I look forward to being part of the discussion.
