I was editor-in-chief of Japan Perspectives, a corporate Flash-based magazine, from its inception in November 2008 to its final edition in May 2011. I designed the logo, such as it is, and took on all aspects of layout and design from April 2009. The site itself is gone, but my own articles are reproduced below.
