JOJO MUSUTA Survival Guide pt. 1

Welcome to the JOJO MUSUTA Survival Guide.

In part one we demonstrate how to survive a typhoon and fend off boredom, while trapped on a remote Japanese island in Okinawa-ken (editors note: any island and typhoon will do).


Step One:
Make sure that there is a Typhoon approaching:



Step Two:
Observe as villagers anchor things down with heavy stuff:




Step Three:
Realize that the Typhoon just hit your island:




Step Four:
Take out your Typhoon supplies,
an Okinawan style Shamisen and a Bottle of Awamori:




Step Five:
Consume some Awamori and approach the Shamisen
in one of the following ways:

I. The Okinawan style as Yama-san here demonstrates:



II. The: I sure cannot play, but this is what they do on MTV-
style as Timo demonstrates:




Step Six:
Now you're all set, enjoy your musical abilities,
consume more Awamori and let the Typhoon blow by.

"So we have clients & ideas... Well how about getting an office then.."

Seems like a good idea... And it also seemed like a good idea to take on the job of actually renovating the place ourselves. "Sure thing, no problem. Just some paint on the walls, little bit of this and a little bit of that. A day - two, give or take..

"Note to self:
Rooms or offices that have surfaces, which the previous tenant has painted black are not easily tackled with white shades of paint."

So two weeks, no sleep, lot's of beer and gallons of paint (or was it lot's of paint and gallons of beer?) later. We have an office, or half and office, because we decided to let our basement keep its Fight Club Helsinki look for a while just for the heck of it (we'll fix it this weekend, or the next, or the one after, or...). 
Getting the job done was really good thing because our neighbors started to get a bit wary about a bunch of people in white overalls, covered in paint, hangin' out on the street in the middle of the night. Some pretty bad ass overalls actually. The label on the package said that with those one can take on nuclear particles. So bring it on Russia - Bring out your Zsar Bombas! JOJO MUSUTA is prepared!


Well anyways... here are some before and after pics:



Black is the new and old black - unfortunately and painting depicting a  Russian tattoo doesn't really help too much either.



We would still be looking for her, if she would've been wearing that popular tight black jeans + black t-shirt uniform all 'real' Helsinki -designers wear.


And you also had to paint the frickin' toilet black, now did you.


How about a stairway to... well nowhere.


Or a stairway to somewhere.

Lockers. Fighters need lockers.


So here we go. 
Let it rip.


So you wanted to be the CEO. You can start by taring apart that structure in the ceiling. (this picture is also available for press use....aaah..bullshit, we'll slap you if you do that.)


Shazam!..... So here it is. Cute - yes.


Le toilet.


Stairs.


Da office.


In Da Office.


So that's about it. Pop in for a nice cuppa coffee (well we really don't have a coffee machine yet..) at Iso-Roobertinkatu. ...Or we can just go to the nearby Bali-Hai for some drinks.

"To hair do or not do hair..?"

"So you´re the one doing shitty graphics, are you happy now?"

Here Goes Nothing...

...As Lando Carlissian so well puts it, when taking on the Death Star. 

So off we go: 
This is JOJO MUSUTA and JOJO MUSUTA is no one. 
...well at least JOJO MUSUTA doesn't carry any particular meaning - or maybe it does. You figure it out...  In real life we are a concept design studio located in the heart of Helsinki, Finland, but that you might have already known by stumbling over to our blog in the first place.
In this blog you'll find things that move and shake us, or stuff that we just feel like putting out for the public to see or maybe just things that make us laugh. Rant, rave, comment or just sit back and enter the minds at JOJO MUSUTA...

...and yeah, this still is just a blog, not the Death Star. So I might have overstated a bit in the beginning of this post...
