dc.description.abstractBroadcast Transcript: This is a pop quiz. What is wabisabi? a) Easy. That stuff you eat with sushi that clears your sinuses right up to your frontal lobes b) A character from a Miyazaki anime film. c) The name Tonto called the Lone Ranger. d) None of the above. And the answer is... d) Wabisabi is, in fact, a centuries old Japanese philosophy that embraces the transience of the physical world. It is a celebration of the cycle of nature: growth, decay, death. It is the finding of beauty in impermanence. In building, it is the choice of wood over plastic or rice paper over glass. It is the acceptance that all things must pass... even that feeling that the top of your head's gonna explode because of the wasabi you just ate... kemosabe. #hacker #japan #ceas
