Tokyo Designers Block

Tokyo Designers Block (TDB) is one of Tokyo's main recurring design events. It is a 5-day exhibition showcasing hundreds of international and domestic designers of all backgrounds. Works are displayed all through Tokyo's fashionable districts, in shop windows, exhibition spaces and galleries.

TDB is the brainchild of Teruo Kurosaki, president of Aoyama design shop Idée, who got the idea following a visit to London's designersblock. "TDB is not a design event nor a trade show of product designs; we are willing to make fun of design and try the best how design can do to the society in Tokyo."

gollark: I think if we do get general intelligence it'll probably work on some higher level then "feed in a set of expected responses and inputs and evolve a network to better predict these", which I think is how current neural network things mostly work.
gollark: This is a neural network thing, then?
gollark: Are you asking:- how close we are to it- what it actually means- whether people would want itor something else?
gollark: What exactly do you mean?
gollark: You should point out that it's your opinion and that people can go around *not liking things*, then go away.
