The Grand Roof Ring is Timeless Architecture — a masterpiece that must be safeguarded for all eternity.
It is the union of sky and sea—Kūkai. Japan must designate it as a National Treasure and preserve it forever.

September 16, 2025 — a clear day at Expo 2025, from afternoon until just before sunset.
Despite being a weekday afternoon, the venue was overflowing with people, its festive energy and urban scenery truly overwhelming.
Once again, I filmed until sunset.

The video features legendary classical performances in sequence:

• Sibelius: Symphony No.2 in D major, Op.43, IV. Finale. Allegro moderato — Berlin Philharmonic, Okko Kamu
• Beethoven: Piano Concerto No.5 in E-flat major, Op.73 “Emperor”, I. Allegro — Maurizio Pollini, Berliner Philharmoniker, Claudio Abbado

This work is a purely non-profit project.
Alongside the magnificence of classical music, I sincerely hope that the beauty of Osaka will be conveyed to the world through these images and this music.
