“My daughter took me for a ride in her car the other day and drove me to Yokohama. I hadn't been there for quite a long time, so I was happy to roam the streets with my camera in my hand. We parked near Kannai station and after walking for a while we arrived at Isezakicho. When I looked up I noticed a singer smiling down at me from a giant billboard and, happily reminded once again where I was, I made quite a few snapshots. That was when I caught sight of a group of cheerful girls parading on the other side of the street, which instantly had me clicking away to all sides. Before, quite a long time ago, I often made trips to Tokyo together with Takuma Nakahira, who was also living in Zushi back then. Instead of jumping on the next train it happened ever so often that we walked out of the station on a whim and into a coffee shop where we would end up for hours; he was only interested in the scenery around the port at night, so over his coffee he just kept talking happily about Godard, or about my favourite singer at the time. My only memories related to this city are those of him shooting like crazy when the two of us eventually went to the port at night. The present cityscape has piqued my curiosity. I guess I will continue going there every now and then.” — from the afterword

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
