ROB san was sraying at Mamasan’s flat in 2010 so Rob san could meet JAH shaka !
First time Rob san was in Osaka in 1997 with Jah shaka (as more rockers?) … then Rob san met Jah shaka in Osaka again was in Osaka 2010!
If they travel around ( as a DJ touring ) around the world… it’s kind of lucky! to meet each other in Osaka! I helped Rob san so that he could go to NOON (Jah shaka was playing at club NOON and Rob san was in Osaka! he didn’t know how to walk from the station to NOON(Umeda is bit like Shibuya ! Many gates or…)
I might hear about (this kind of news…) on insta about Rob san…( how old is he now? 17 years older than me …( about same age as Mark Stewart (rip)…) He drunk a lot and… his high blood pressure… I haven’t met Rob san since 2018.

Then why Rob san didn’t finish paperwork?( I just heard they live separate, and they (rob san and emi smith) got married for Emi’s Visa situation… I don’t know when they got divorced properly…! He made me slave work while they haven’t sort out Divorce paper work…(and Rob san used to be my boyfriend, … but with relationship or not, anyway ROB san must pay for my JOBS!!)

(Rob san was having SEX with “HOOKER(sex work)” but rob san told me lies! ( with Herpes Rob san needed to wear condoms but he told me lie! (He inserted me without condom ( I thought me relaxmax and Rob san is 1 to 1 relationship (…but Rob san was hiding about sex worker… and had SEX with me!… Rob san kept his lies till ROBLUZBRAZZOS wrote me saying “ALL JAPANESE must DIE from TSUNAMI”…scary! I was crying hard…! Traumatic wxperience!

who is a teacher at evening school in Sakai (not at my junior high school, different one), teaching math (and chemistry), smoking with pipe, kind of disabled (he can see with one eye…blocked perspective)…he taught me math when I was low teen and HE GAVE ME his CAMERA! My first ever Camera, NIKON FE and 55mm!…He talked a lot!
After I made this page (I had this poem, but it wasn’t on this photobook yet…then…) …
I don’t exactly remember
“THIS MOMENT”
like
Gabriel García Márquez…
When I started my journey in 2012,
I wanted to “create something”!(taking photos on the road!)
But never know I will write a NOVEL…(nor photos into “photobook”)
I heard (on that Novel ) “ciudad” is fictional …and he was writing “Cien años de soledad” in Mexico somewhere…
This poem was in the short movie (prototype ) called ” Parties in Other Rooms” (Show in 2007 Tower Record Cafe 3rd Anniversary photo exhibition)
I wrote this poem in 2006.
(Many words are from the title of Manga(地球へ), the books, or lyrics…!
How many can you find? I do remember what was my own words, and which one is from ..! I put my soul in it! )
In 2020 when I look back, I almost forgot what I wrote in “Parties in Other Rooms”, so I had to find out from my prototype short movie…
To get together under a groove in one place…
I do miss those miracles… Parties in Other Rooms!

My website! (I uploaded my photo of… somebody(maybe photographer lady in Kyoto…?) was watching my photos at my exhibition in LUMEN… But hacker? Delated? My photo???? I can’t find it on my website…!)
Did she also? (steal?????) movie installation on the floor… (she came to my exhibition in 2016! she saw full movie!(45min!!!)…then she did something “VERY Similar” to mine..!?!? (Will she do same? if it’s part of “Architect Ban”‘s work… (I guess impossible! ) so why did she ? (photo , art , or…”architecture”!!!)

彼のFinal Essay
In 2002 (before marriage maybe?)
Somalian boy throwed a stone (3 of them one girl, and two boys were there…)
They were on top of …
Hilly bit of “here”?(maybe)
I was walking towards the entrance (of Lansdowne Court)
They attacked me from behind…
A stone hit my head (left side of ear tho I was wearing knitted hat(?)…
I looked back, ( from left side )
…then I saw “THEM”
Somalian kids (2 boys and a girl… they are kinda giggling…)
I was scared and run away… ( to my flat entrance!)
RIP MARK Stewart
One of
Bristol’s …
(I only had “Y” got it when I was a teenager…?or early twenties…)
I got the news again on “ insta”
(Internet…)
Daddy G (Massive Attack)’s insta…
I wonder how old Gran is…
(Or RSD Rob Smith, I read they were in a same band…in 80s? and Rob san was telling me that they went to splatter movie together…(eating mashroom! Shroom! West Country…)
Same era as Mark was playing in Bristol?… Mark and Rob san is about same age … 1960(Mark) or 1959(rob San)…I guess Gran is older than them?
I heard (only once) Rob san’s guitar (he is a guitarist in a different band called “Dub from Atlantis” (ahh.. that venue is gone … can’t remember the name but I did “poetry reading (poetry Monday!)”…Storks Croft… ah! “CROFT”, isn’t it?!?!
I don’t know much about punk era of Bristol ( I was living in 2002-2004)
…and I remember his comment on insta( “get well soon” was it by him?!)
Opening line for

When I wrote this in 2017 spring (very first English short story written by relaxmax), I didn’t think about style(文体BUNTAI). (Coz it’s “short one”! (Just as it is “me relaxmax”!)
I didn’t think about
“Opening line”.
(When I look back now, I could’ve think about “very relaxmax! Opening line”but I never thought of… anyway this is “me relaxmax”!)

Writing a novel in English …(I am Japanese and I’m not English native …
So I try find my “文体 style” (for my English novel!
I already have “style” (about writing novel in “Japanese”!!) I guess, coz I read lots (of books when I was a teenager …!)
I started to write my ENGLISH novel in 2019.
I was thinking …is it better to read some novel ( to find my BUNTAI style in English writing(for novel)!
… then I just didn’t read any :) haha!
Capote is one of my choice tho but I didn’t read his novel (long story) in English…
I only read Capote’s short stories ( in Japanese translations …years ago when I was a teenager)
About novel, I only read some short stories in English (in Japanese translation I read lots more tho) , never read “long one”(短編じゃない長編！を英語で一冊も！読んでいない。日本語翻訳でティーンの時にたくさん読んだけど！「日本語」！英語の文体について、、、改めて自分で考えた「理由」！
