A year ago I was on a journey with Grace Chikui. Little Tokyo, a neighborhood I frequent often, became something new. I learned how to navigate Little Tokyo through Grace's shoes. I'm so excited to share this work with everyone. You can all walk with Grace through the video below.
Shot and produced in March 2016, WALKING WITH GRACE is a short 360º video documentary that highlights Little Tokyo places and streets through the perspective of Grace Chikui, a blind woman and long-time resident.
To enrich the 360º experience, the project team recorded the environment with a Soundfield ambisonic microphone and mixed the spatial audio with TwoBigEars' workflow (now Facebook 360's Spatial Workstation). WALKING WITH GRACE had its world premiere at the LA Asian Pacific Film Festival in April 2016; as part of the program, INTERACTIVE LITTLE TOKYO! WALKING WITH GRACE is a production presented by FORM follows FUNCTION and Visual Communications, with VR Direction and Spatial Audio App/Design by Vicki Huang. The WALKING WITH GRACE team would like to thank everyone that helped this project; especially our Crowdrise donors: Amreen Karmali Angelica Tonatzin Borlasa Family Cecille Cervancia CES Dodge & Ging Ed Moy Eliza Escano glenn togawa Jackie Liao Jeanell Allenegui Kathie Foley-Meyer KawaiiSKI Lindy Melanie Espinueva+Aure Nancy Yap Nicole Miyahara Pebbles Robert Shoji t-kay san juan Tito Boboy & Tita Myrna and our donors who preferred to be listed as Anonymous =)

Happy Pi Day!
For as much as I make fun of Mike and Valley Twin Joe about their use of puns, I will admit I am a fan of things pun-tastic. On one of our last trips to the Griffith Park Observatory I bought a 3.14 Pi shirt with the intention of wearing it today. Sadly I forgot to put it on this morning. However I did not forget to stop by the grocery store to pick up a pie for work! Apple pie, Ready Whip, and then some miscellaneous snacks. Those Smash Mallow Cinnamon Churro things are dangerous. And I can never resist a Rice Krispy Treat. I blame Tita Nenette. She would make them all the time when I was a kid and now whenever I see home made Rice Krispy Treats in stores I can't resist!
A classic Disney throwback!
For a long time I worked with students in the STEM field. Science and Math jokes were a way of life. And while I am not a math wiz, I do appreciate Pi Day!
Even my new Senator is getting in on the fun!
TREE TRUNKS! Love this Cartoon Network Pi Pun!
That's some spiffy baking work on this Pi-e!
