Today I saw a blog post that linked to a blog post that linked to a phone app about the 72 "microseasons" of the Nara period. Yes, a new season every five days. The app is apparently a new version of an older app, and the new app includes information about what customs, activities, and foods would have been used in Nara to celebrate each season. Seems like a fun and educational thing to install on your fancy 21st century communicator thingy. The " Spoon & Tamago" blog looks interesting, too. |

Don't have no C21st communicator thingie, but the wife does, so downloaded it to hers instead. Many thanks for the HU.
And yes, Spoon & Tamago does look great; have already purchased Shinji Tsuchimochi's "100 Views of Tokyo".

Aye! It's a spinoff of their original 72 Seasons app, which is also lovely.

I have been following this app for awhile and it has been a nice way to keep me writing during the downtimes of our seasonal writing challenge. Thanks again for sharing the article and app links!

Speaking of, why isn't there a seasonal writing challenge.....er......seasonallly? You mean the Tanka challenges that Mistress Saionji has been issuing in November and April for the past 9 years?  Summer and winter are sadly neglected, but maybe we can renga if we feel rowdy enough, LOL! |
