keep on creating...



shinya says he will never stop making
something if it is physically possible.

he has been mainly working on mv agusta and it's basically done, just need to be ridden to break in the freshly rebuilt engine(fun part). but...it's not the end of the story. now his main focus is on twin-cam that he also has started last october. shinya said if he wanted to keep going with what he's doing,"I JUST NEED TO CONTINUE, THAT'S ALL!" hmmm...that's easier said than done...
oh, by the way, it looks like super easy but rolling a thick aluminum sheet is very hefty :)


さてさて、アグスタも始動して後は乗りまくって調整するのみ、となりました。しかし、これで終わりではありませぬ。去年からアグスタと平行して地道に始まっていたツインカムにいよいよ本格的に取り掛かる訳です。日頃から、身体が動く内は何かを作り続けていたい、という木村氏。もし手を止めてしまったら、二度とその欲求を取り戻せなくなるかもしれない、という恐怖というか緊張感が、面白いものを作るパワーになっているのかもしれません。止まらずに作り続ける、そんな夢を叶えるべく、108枚の写真をつなげて木村氏をパラパラ動かしてみました。この四角の中でなら永遠に動いていられるよ。あら108、煩悩の数と同じじゃありませんか。パラパラ曲げてるように見えますが、実際に厚ぼったいアルミ板をカールさせるのは大変な重労働で汗かいてました。ニット帽で汗、いやん。

thats a very good video ayu...i am just about to buy a roller and was wondering how many times it would take to roll like that.....that answers for me....10 times or so...shinya, how thick is that alloy....3mm?...those are good rollers...i cant buy like that here....

and with regard to "i just need to continue, thats all"....thats the truth of it....i feel that in my life here...i just need to go straight...continue...go...simple.

Nice video indeed!
For me "just continue" is one of the hardest things. It needs focus, determination and an attitude of "cut the crap".

i guess the mans gotta do what hes gotta do....which obviously produces some amazing creations....having the drive to push it is what separates most....
