Torii Gate made of speakers in Kamiyama, Tokushima. You can connect your phone to it and play anything.
This is impressive in so many ways.
why didn’t they do this in the first place ?
Are you seriously asking why, a couple thousand years ago when gates like this started being built, they didn’t make them out of modern electrical speakers?
Yeah. Makes sense to me, I guess
….okay, repeat after me.
You cannot build something in 100 CE out of something that won’t be invented until the 1950s CE.
I don’t follow your logic
don’t listen to that poster, traditional amplifier torii gates were dismantled in the Edo period on order of Tokugawa Iemitsu (1623 - 1651), a noted devotee of acoustic enka music, in order to suppress the popular visual kei movement.
Maybe it’s like you said. Maybe there is something out
there, some new discovery that will make us feel like even smaller pieces of shit.
Something that explains why you still went looking for me through all of this
noise. And why, no matter what, I still want to be here with you. I will
always, always, want to be here with you.
