2019\u00a0 Annual Report, A chief interview
\n2020.02.26\u3000\u3000Erina Hosono<\/span><\/p>\n

We interviewed Shomei Tanteidan Leader Mr. Mende this year again as an annual round up to our weekly World Lighting Journey postings in 2019 to the Shomei Tanteidan Facebook.<\/p>\n

\"\"Our Leader Mr. Mende looking back at the posts of the year.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"The most reacted image: Stockholm Subway<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>So, our conclusion from last year\u2019s World Lighting Journey (WLJ) was \u201cLet\u2019s upload more natural light\u201d, how did everyone react to that?<\/p>\n

\u2015It doesn\u2019t seem that posts that featured only natural lighting was that much more popular.<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>So then, which photos where more popular? (Looks through the data of our 2019 Facebook postings) I see, it seem that images that show scenes that are rare or haven\u2019t been seen by Japanese seemed to incite a bigger response.<\/p>\n

\u2015Mr. Lin\u2019s photo of the subway station in Stockholm and Mr. Hattori\u2019s photos of Italy and the Vatican had the most reactions<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>The photo of the subway itself is very impactful, that\u2019s probably why it is capable of garnering such attention. I always enjoy Mr. Hattori\u2019s photos as they always capture how people and lighting interact.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"Saint Peter\u2019s Cathedral in Vatican City, The interplay between dynamic light and shadow<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2015Mr. Itakura\u2019s photo taken in the air that looks like Anthony Mccall\u2019s artwork also gathered some attention<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>It must have left an impression, because you rarely see places with such strong natural light in Japan. Have you heard of the Italian movie \u201cMiracle in Milan\u201d? There a scene where the light shines upon a plaza from between the clouds and people were moving in and out of the light as if they were actors left a lasting impression on me. This photo reminds me of that.<\/p>\n

\u2015Mr. Mende, show us the post that you liked the most!<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>I really like the photo from the Water and light installation at the Macau Casino hotel. Photos with people in it really come alive. There is some debate to whether casinos should exists but where there are casinos there comes light as well, so I think they\u2019re heroes (chuckle). Similarly, the West Lake fountain show photo is nice as well. The light from the show itself and the light from the screens where people are trying to take a photo are create a dual layer of light and leaves a lasting impression.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"Looking out the window pre-landing at Narita<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2015Talking about Facebook, their individual user count is going down compared to last year and the year before, while Instagram and Twitter is seeing an increase in users.<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>What\u2019s the difference?<\/p>\n

\u2015Facebook instigates connections between people who already know each other and my impression of it is that it\u2019s used more to update each other on your current events in your life. On the other hand, Instagram and Twitter doesn\u2019t require you to register your real name and you can search for topics that you like and follow users that you are interested in. It lets you dive deep into your hobbies and interests. Instagram also has a stories feature where you are able to upload photos or videos for a limit of 24 hours. It seems that the light heartedness of the features allows for people to post more.<\/p>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>Are there any other differences?<\/p>\n

\u2015When you\u2019re looking back at past posts of an user, it\u2019s hard to scroll on Facebook, while Instagram displays thumbnails so it\u2019s much easier to gather a ton of information in a short span of time. It\u2019s much easier to look back on our WLJ posts on Instagram than it is on Facebook. Twitter and Instagram also lets you search in accordance to tags on your post and you can look at posts from all around the world related to that tag. For example, you can search for #lighting and you will find many genres of photos related to lighting.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"Fountain show in West Lake, China. The view of everyone trying to capture the moment is also very memorable<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mende\uff1a<\/strong>\u00a0I see. It seems Instagram is a better fit for people to get to know WLJ. I want to try a bunch of different things this year. We could do something every week where we decide a theme and ask for photos to be sent to us. For example something like \u201cThe most frustrating view of the year\u201d or something of the sort. We don\u2019t normally think to photograph light that we dislike do we? And each person differs on the light that we dislike, so wouldn\u2019t it be fun if we might have findings where people think \u201cOh, this person dislikes this light huh, I think it\u2019s beautiful\u201d? It also good to write down why you thought to take that photo, however short. As you keep doing that, you nurture your perspective of looking at things and that unique perspective is what is interesting. Let\u2019s make 2020 a year where we challenge ourselves to do a variety of things. (Erina Hosono)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
