Daihatsu Hijet Standard Van and Truck, 1968. The third generation of Daihatsu's long-running kei truck and van. The truck appeared in the 1970 Japanese movie Hadaka no jûkyû-sai (Live Today, Die Tomorrow!). Interestingly there was also an electric version that was used to shuttle attendees around the 1970 Osaka World’s Fair.

Deme and Deku performance robots by Arata Isozaki (1970), Japan. Robot Deme (identified as RM) and Robot Deku (identified as RK) are a pair of gigantic architectural machines that appeared at the Expo'70 opening ceremony in Osaka, housed beneath Kenzo Tange's Festival Plaza space frame. The transparent spheres at the top of Deme serve as a control room for the performance director. "The Osaka Demonstration Robot by Arata Isozaki consists of a head, body, base and two arms of different lengths. The head contains two control rooms. In the first ambient data is collected and processed, and then transmitted to the main control room from which the robot receives instructions to respond by emitting smoke, smell, light, and sounds. The body of the robot can rise up to a height of twenty-four feet. When the body is up, the base becomes a stage and it is then possible for the body of the robot to go through a repertoire of movements." – Jasia Reichardt, Robots: Fact, Fiction, Prediction.
“The robot that housed projector rooms inside two plastic spheres would be named the 'Deme' (pop-eyed), while the one serving as the control station was named the 'Deku,' derived from 'deku-no-bõ (good-for-nothing),' for its inability to do anything but move from side to side. There was one other problem: the power supply. Batteries could not power the enormous machines. Electricity ultimately had to be supplied by cable. Unable to move without cords, the robots were like performing monkeys on leashes. The movable lighting installation suspended from the Grand Roof was named the 'hanging robot.' It resembled the long-armed monkeys in Hasegawa Tohaku's paintings. Alas, they were all monkeys. We needed to find things to joke about in this manner, as we would otherwise have suffocated working with the lifeless mechanical devices.” – Arata Isozaki, Recalling the Days of Expo Art (?) (2001).
