I spent most of the recent weekend doing origami, swapping out the main hard drive in my music PC (the old one was annoyingly noisy), and staring into space. At some point, while perusing <a href=\"http:\/\/pinktentacle.com\/\">Pink Tentacle<\/a>, I ran across this video by World Order, a Japanese music\/dance group:<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"450\" height=\"283\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r-qhj3sJ5qs\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n(Watch both of those in a bigger format if you can; my blog restricts images to a width of 450px but both videos are available in HD.) Genki Sudo, the leader, left this comment below the video:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\nThe unprecedented disasters unfolding in Japan; earthquakes, tsunami, and nuclear explosions, will somehow change things to come. And to send my message about this, I have expressed it here with WORLD ORDER.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">These disasters can be interpreted as a turning point for civilization. I think that we have arrived at a time of revolution, shared with all the people of the world, in today&#8217;s society, economy, and political systems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Incidents themselves are neutral. I believe that every single one of us, wandering through this deep darkness, can overcome anything, if only we let go of our fear, and face the it all in a positive light.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The world is not going to change. Each one of us will change. And if we do, then yes, the world will be changed. It is darkest right before the dawn. Let&#8217;s all rise up to welcome the morning that will be so very bright for mankind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s a bit startling to see how much time has gone by since my last post here.
