Last Wednesday we witnessed the magic of "Big in Japan" brought to us Ksubi and Kirin. Unveiled at carriageworks, contemporary Japanese artists were flown in to Sydney specifically for the event, including musicians, live performers, body hackers and visual artists. Fueled by endless beer and sushi it went down a treat, definitely an orgy for the senses.
