A section of an installation at Vivid 2018. 1000 Cranes is inspired by an ancient Japanese legend: if a group of 1000 origami cranes (known in Japanese as senbazuru) are hung in one’s home it will act as a powerful and benevolent charm and bring good luck. The installation is a canopy of hanging origami cranes that light up as visitors move through the space. As the crowd grows more cranes light up until 1000 cranes are fully illuminated. The light colours of the cranes are individually white, blue, red, purple orange and yellow in this section captured. Most of them are purple. Some cranes are dark, not lit up. Artists: Ambient & Co- Christopher Simpson, Isabella Bain, Anthony Zeater, James Rotanson, Khanh Nguyen.

Speaking of my obsessive thinking problem, does anyone want to see my second senbazuru run? ("If I fold all 1,000, we'll win the general") Currently at 720 (not pictured). 🥰

A folded crane is called an 'orizuru' (折鶴). It is said that if you fold a thousand cranes, collectively known as 'senbazuru' (千羽鶴), you will be granted one wish.
In total Sadako folded around 1300, but sadly her wish did not come true and she died on October 25th 1955.

One detail about Kamen Rider My-th I haven't seen talked about:

The Zodiac Alliance Riders' armor looks like origami, while My-th's armors look like wire sculpture. Even the past version of My-th has origami ears instead of wires. Really adds to the "old vs new" theme
My-th's various form changes juxtaposed with the Zodiac Alliance Riders Kamen Rider My-th, with his past variant below him. Note the past version's origami ears From Wikipedia, The folding of two origami cranes linked together from the first known technical book on origami Hiden senbazuru orikata by Akisato Rito, published in Japan in 1798 From Wikipedia, Wire sculpture is the creation of sculpture out of wire. The use of metal wire in jewelry dates back to the 2nd Dynasty in Egypt and to the Bronze and Iron Ages in Europe.[1] In the 20th century, the works of Alexander Calder, Ruth Asawa, and other modern practitioners developed the medium of wire sculpture as an art form.

#NowPlaying Hard to think of a more beautiful LP cover. I gingerly took the obi-strip off so you could see it in its full glory. I think the album title translates as The Days I Held a Thousand Cranes in My Mouth, a reference to the Japanese art of senbazura. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_tho...

Senbazuru

A thousand paper cranes
She wants us to fold a few each day
Why are we doing this
This origami is going to save us
Right?
Open your awareness
Let the motions
Grace our souls
To something bigger than us
To heal another
To be the peace
To be the light
To grant a wish

We learned how to make origami cranes at my niece‘s memorial. She had made one thousand cranes after reading about the Japanese tradition (千羽鶴, senbazuru). It was a fun and tactile way to celebrate someone we loved. Bittersweet joy.

Master Peace 2013-2014 by Jennifer and Kevin Box powder-coated cast stainless steel Audio tour phone #: (888) 495-7736, enter #10 Asian legend tells of a Senbazuru and says that if you fold one thousand cranes within a single year, you will be granted a wish. Many people undertake this paper- folding pilgrimage as a wish for long life and good health. As their wish for peace, Box and his wife Jennifer created Master Peace, a collection of one thousand cast metal cranes. 500 of those cranes are scattered around the world as individual sculptures, and 500 are gathered here in this 25' monument. "Rather than a monument to the tragedies of the past, we created a monument of hope for the future." - Jennifer Box 500 metal swans stalked into a 20 foot tower.

On day 19 of my first #Japan trip in 2006, after breakfast at the Ryokan, I went back to Okayama and then by Shinkansen to #Hiroshima. Seeing the A-Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial Museum left a lasting impression. 🕊️
