I tried making a video

"Butterfly 1"

Covid-19 pandemic makes me depressed。Sometimes I ride a bike、I wear a mask and go round and go and see the cherry blossoms at Gongendo by myself (though this year's cherry blossoms are also taken into consideration as it is quiet.、It feels very beautiful)、I didn't feel like sketching, so I went home as I did.。Because it also works as an exercise、I just run around until I get a little sweaty。I'm an idiot。

All classes have been closed anyway、At least a half months left。Production and research (although、I draw it with all sorts of ideas、For now, make it into shape、What's good and what's wrong、I just have time to think about how to get better.、Go a little more than usual。But that's just an extension of decades of routine。More than that、Adding things you couldn't do before、I was thinking about avenging the coronavirus somehow。

One of them is making videos。The most popular、I also thought about editing a photo (or video recording) into a video.、First I wanted to draw a flip-flop comic。When I think about it, I admired Disney videos when I was in elementary school.、During class, draw a picture of the movements decomposed at the edges of a notebook or textbook.、I flipped through and had fun on my own。I really wanted to show this to everyone、My dream was still a dream。It's a simple video、That's finally happened at this age。A bit happy (actually quite)。Corona、Look now。

I had already mastered how to draw flip-flop manga when I was in elementary school.、To actually image data, you need to get used to the computer.、Actually, that was very difficult。I've been thinking about drawing it someday since I bought a pen tablet.、I've been stuck for ten years to make it happen。I am amazed at how lazy he is、When I try to make it, I honestly want to work harder。

April to think about “human rights”

It seems that a "state of emergency" declaration due to the coronavirus will be issued tomorrow (4/7) (even though it is "emergency", it is "tomorrow")、People on the street are laughing at the fact that it is truly "(unnecessary) non-urgent")。The period is expected to end around May 7th.。The range is、7 prefectures: Tokyo, Saitama, Chiba, Kanagawa, Osaka, Kobe, and Fukuoka。There are many problems、Anyway, this is the "Japanese way".、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。I don't care what you pretend to be、I want to get in shape before next year's Olympics.、That's all I have in mind。

4/6As of noon、Number of COVID-19 infections in Japan: 3,654、Death 73。The angle of the story is a little different、2019The number of suicides in 2019 falls below 20,000 for the first time.、19,959people (preliminary figures)。20193,215 people died in traffic accidents in fiscal year。The number of suicides is still the highest among G7 countries.、Not long ago, there were over 30,000 people a year.、I understand that it is an abnormally ``difficult'' country to live in.。Traffic accident deaths have been decreasing significantly year by year.、Furthermore, this number is。It used to be nearly 10 times this amount.、"Because there are more cars"、A passive perspective was the norm.。

Even the annual flu affects millions of people worldwide.、almost certainly tens of thousands、There will be related deaths。In this coronavirus pandemic, the disease will rapidly become serious (especially for the elderly).、The news has become even more widespread because many of the deaths were among medical personnel.。but、If we look closely at the fact that medical personnel are being seriously harmed,、Half of this is caused by overwork.、The reason for overwork is financial reasons in each country.、It has also been pointed out that this is a result of the system drastically reducing the number of medical personnel and the number of beds.。In short, there is also the aspect of a "man-made disaster" caused by politics.、Right now, everything is being carried away by the force of sentiment and emotion.。

“Our” society drives approximately 20,000 people to suicide every year。I don't have any doubts about it、(Currently) There are only 100 or fewer deaths.、(I understand the feeling of opposition to that phrase, but why is there so much fuss about the coronavirus?、Shouldn't we think about this more calmly?。many suicides、Without leaving any scars on the world's economy, etc.、Dying quietly in a corner。against that、The coronavirus will directly impact us financially (especially those living in the so-called "economic world").。The meaning of “state of emergency declaration”、Rather than infection and death from it.、Is it really about money? I think。

Cultural screws are broken

A small museum in the Netherlands、The Van Gogh painting I was borrowing was stolen.、news that。Due to the coronavirus pandemic、Apparently it was temporarily closed due to government request.。

Rather than being angry at a time like this、I feel like applauding this thief.。At a time like this when we are depressed due to Corona、At the very least, instead of opening a museum and devising ways to heal people's feelings,、I feel like the very idea of ​​simply closing the museum is being criticized.。Almost all large-scale events have been canceled、The big contradiction is that the date for next year's Olympics has also been decided.。They say it's for athletes, etc.、The real intention is to recover the money spent on the Olympics.、Everyone knows that the strong request from the business community, which wants to use this as a catalyst to give momentum to business, is the top priority.。At such times、The stolen painting all by myself、When I imagine myself excitedly looking into it up close,、I feel like the culprit is a much more noble person.。

Freelance musician/performer、stage actors etc.、In addition, instructors of various culture classes etc.、Life is no longer possible due to the cancellation of concerts and events.。Can we, as a cultural nation, just leave this situation alone?、There is a debate that。We want to respond to this by expanding the scope of conventional unemployment measures.、There is a raw reply from the administration that。However, the reality is that many people don't even really understand the meaning of the word "freelance".。The only translation of the word “live” is “source of infection.”、It doesn't seem to apply to them。To those who only know famous people、What path did the famous person take to get there?、It seems that the ability to imagine is completely lacking.。

people working as freelancers、Unemployment relief funds will be used to cover temporary hardships.、During that time, ``I go to Hello Work etc.''、find a job as much as possible。This is the kind of aid that will only go so far.''。Are you an idiot?、All I can say is。``This will stabilize my life.、Don't you think the idea is to work hard at composing and practicing until the time is right? Should I work somewhere? What about practice? A painter has a solo exhibition for one week.、Suppose sales are 1 million yen.。1 million yen per week、There are 55 weeks a year, so you can probably earn about 50 million yen.、say it calmly。When do you think you'll start painting?。no imagination。Of course it's not good to steal pictures.。But、I'd rather talk to this idiot、I'm sure you can have a deeper conversation with the criminal.。
