...wild-eyed lunatic Harold Keke, who is now in custody, accused of several atrocities during the tensions. At Vunusa, a treacherous jungle walk or short river wade (your choice) from the Isuna police post, community chief Philip Limaihado is briskly leading visitors through vegetable gardens, past a thatched shed that is a church, and into a small settlement that has changed little in centuries. For the 400 people who live in this group of five villages, getting beyond subsistence is a struggle. It's all but impossible to sell produce; they can't even get it to market. Rain often...
...blatant misuse of the language of their imperialist enemy. And her friend's grandfather, a construction worker, mentions that he is building a large market ("We people are all curious about such a market," he says), suggesting that economic reforms are filtering through to everyday life. These snippets shed little light, but A State of Mind is illuminating in one very basic way: seeing the families at close range reminds us that North Koreans are people...
Hello gorgeous. The words are painted in pink above the kitchen sink of a rundown shed in the middle of Australia's Western Desert.

These are packed like cotton-wool clouds around the picture's central image of an ice-gray waterhole. "Finished," she says, before breaking into raucous laughter. Now, in the desert, a new journey begins...
...shed no tears for Taniguchi the Obscure. He prefers anonymity. Indeed, he kicked off a recent interview with TIME in his almost monastically spare office in central Tokyo by confessing half-nervously, half-wearily: "I've been avoiding this type of thing as much as possible." Still, MOMA reopened last Saturday amid great fanfare, so there's now no avoiding the limelight. Although he has a built a number of highly respected buildings in Japan (including eight museums) over a 40-year career, this is Taniguchi's first international commission?and it ranks as one of the most important museum...
