Were there any establishments of opened design infrastructure like this in Japan so far? I thought this when I heard about that. The mission of *Allrightsreserved was certainty facing towards the coming creative future and my body unconsciously shook.

Surprisingly, the place of for the meeting is Tokyo Dome! Saeki said “Tokyo Dome is not only huge but also symbolizing ‘Tokyo’. Back of a bench and a bullpen can be a exhibition area, and it is creative to think about the use of the space that is not be used as well.” Not only main arena which will be a hot spot of “business trade show”, but also hidden space in the dome such as Bullbens will be opened for creators’ diversion. Furthermore, audience seats for 50000 people will be as “jumble market zone” and general guests can participate with 1000 per seat.

During the meeting terms, variety of devisly planned events that are able to be held in the dome such as competitions, seminars, workshops, and stadium lives are planned. It will be the scene that geeks associate variously beyond the limit of exhibitors and guests.

I asked Saeki what the real value is. after AFRA spoke loudly at the live saying “Even though it is different atmosphere from normal, good things will come out!” Saeki answered strongly, “That is what the market gonna decide naturally”.

Press release of Happening 2001 said “The environment that we’ve made will grow naturally after all. Lets correct the course again when the environment face towards the bad way ” Now, it is five years later from that. I do not know if this is the time for it, but I am so exited with this new movement.
