The Story of Super W
*
Once when I was in the temple,
people tried not to wish,
and tried not to want to have anything.
They were strongly training themselves.
I was confused.
I was more wondering about the world outside.
I wanted to know what people think and what they are looking for.
Actually I wanted to know what kinds of things I should think about.
One day I decided to ask to the people about their wishes directly.
I decided that I will think about their wishes.
We will solve them together.

Against all the superheroes, Unexpected things happened
Super W did not have a special power. while he is in the garment to him and to the people.
The Only speical power he seems to have was
he could see both ways.
He was armed with
a rear-view video camera and wish questionnaires.
Therefore he could see where people were heading for.

6. Mar 2008 Anonymous Meetings
Anonymous Meetings
This place is filled with temporary people,
and this fact leads to anonymous meetings everyday
on the street. the only thing they know about each
other is from the moment’s experience.
There is no concept about each other.
Without any concept about each other,
this meeting can be lead to true relationship.
This is really good thing about this place.
I wish we would communicate more perhaps with the
help or anonymity.

I met him in South Kensington Station. He was selling
newspapers. I was giving him my letter asking what he
wishes. The first time, he was not interested in it and
he really did not want to talk to me. The second time I
was giving him the invitation letter for my exhibition
with my questions. He said he does not have time to go
there. I went to talk to him again. This was the third
try. He said he comes here everyday from Kent. He said it
takes almost two and half hour and he is tired. He said
Newspaper Salesman he has got no wishes. He did not say much. Every morning
in Souhkensington Station I pass South Kensington Station and I could buy papers
from him. He gave me couple of free books. He is not
there anymore. I don’t know where he is.
After three months, I saw him again. He broke his leg and
could not come out. But he said he is okay now. This is
the mug for him. I put people’s wishes inside the mug.
Then he can drink the wishes everyday.
*Mug: Collected Three Earthenware Mugs, Gold letters inside the mugs
