Hello world (part 2)
Anyone who has been following us for a bit longer, probably knows that we have a Tumblr blog before. But as you probably already have seen, this one is empty. How come? We decided to start with a clean slate. We hope you will find us again on Tumblr.
Let's introduce ourselves!
AVO Magazine is a Japan-related webzine with a focus on Japanese (indie) music. The community has been around since 2003, first as a forum, now as a webzine, and we organise a concert from time to time. We are located in The Netherlands, but we have writers from several countries. This means that we publish in several languages. Read more about what we do and have done in the past.
We like to come up with suggestions for those who are interested in Japanese music, but also other media, but we also like to read your suggestions!

I used selective blurring, tilt-shift, to make the area appear as…

Quite a few bridges around these parts have these plaques. Part engineering information, part history.
Follow them around and you can see how parts of the city grew up.
