The Daily Life Of Sumo Wrestlers By Paolo Patrizi


The wrestlers live, eat, and practice together at the stables. Exercises start around 6 a.m. with the juniors. A wrestler challenges an opponent, and he stays in the ring until someone beats him. At 8 a.m., Patrizi said, the more senior wrestlers come in and things get interesting.


“Some of the tough guys pick on the younger ones, and they trash them. There’s some serious beating going on. There’s a lot of bullying going on, but these guys keep quiet. They can’t complain,” he said.


Training is grueling. When the sumos do go out, Patrizi said, it’s most often on a Sunday, their day off. He says they sometimes rent videos or play video games. - Slate

Technology Gets Creepy: A Display That Reacts To Human Interaction

Sigh, humanity, I’m not sure where you are headed with this technology. So apparently there’s an image that knows when you kiss it, and reacts accordingly. 

I’m shaking my head and laughing at the same time. 

A visual documentation of an amazing videographer on a quest with photographer, Michael Levin. 

Excerpt: 

“I wanted to document Michael at work, in Japan, in a way that hasn’t really been explored with photographers. I told Michael of my idea to make an artistic representation of his experiences in the Land of the Rising Sun - to show him in his working environment in a way that complimented his work. Not to explain it with words, but to feel it through the flow of the film. I wanted to show the process, the journey, the adventure in a way that would give the viewer and emotional connection to Michael and his photography.”
