Architect Tan Yamanouchi has launched a new podcast: “土とフィクション” (Soil and Fiction).

“Soil = architecture” is built upon gravity. “Fiction = narrative” is built within buoyancy.

“土とフィクション” is a program in which Tan Yamanouchi — who pursues projects at the intersection of architecture and pop culture — reads and interprets Japan’s narrative culture, including manga, animation, and light novels, through the lens of an architect.
