Studio Ghibli—films for the soul.
Or so goes the logic, according to one mysteriously unattributed quote beloved across the internet. It reads in full: "Disney movies touch the heart, but Studio Ghibli films touch the soul." This line is beloved, of course, because something in it rings true; something here resonates.
The #studio ghibli films, beginning with 1984's Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind until this year's release The Boy and the Heron, are loved and acclaimed universally for their beauty, joy, sadness, and sheer sense of spirit. These are, in some ways, deeply romantic movies with rich characters and complex plots, which deal with a wealth of themes in the studio's singular and elusive style. Yet despite these otherworldly, fantastical qualities, there is something in these films that seems to touch on something universal, despite its deep rootedness in Japanese culture, custom, and mythology. And let it be said that animated food has never looked so good—and *never* will do again.
(P.s. Dear Reader, as Spirited Away, maybe the studio's most iconic film, prepares to arrive in Europe as a stage production, let it be said that I, Author Unknown, got tickets in the presale yesterday. Come, rejoice with me.)

2nd edition re-print of a book titled now available via @sternbergpress ~ link in bio $12
“Insert Complicated Title Here” by Virgil Abloh
from his lecture at @harvardgsd introduction c/o @oooooana at the architecture Venice biennale tomorrow. location details above.
brief: “What’s my DNA?” Virgil Abloh asks to an overflowing auditorium at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Abloh goes on to provide his audience with a “cheat code”—advice he wishes he had received as a student. He then unpacks a series of “shortcuts” for cultivating a “personal design language.” Trained as an architect and engineer, Abloh has translated the tools and techniques of his student days into the world of fashion, product design, and music. His label, Off-White, works in seeming contradictions, marrying streetwear with couture, collaborating with brands like Nike, Ikea, and the Red Cross; musicians like Lil Uzi Vert and ideas based on texts from the likes of Rem Koolhaas. Impervious to hurdles (“They literally don’t exist.”), Abloh takes us behind the scenes of his design process, sharing the essentials of editing, problem-solving, and storytelling. He paints a picture of his DNA, and then flips the question: What’s your DNA? “Insert Complicated Title Here” is the sixth title in the book series The Incidents based on uncommon events at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design from 1936 to tomorrow.
