The Night of the Hunter (Original Title: The Night of the Hunter)

HATE in his left hand, LOVE in his right. I met a man reminiscent of the intense tattooed words carved into the fingers of Robert Mitchum's character.

It was the night I attended chim↑pom's survival dance.



A man who loved typewriters too much, Donald,
has the letters of a typewriter tattooed onto his hands.



Everything this man does is dangerous.
In 2004, he created the video work "LOVIT" themed around the Palestinian separation wall, and developed non-combatant military wear designed by domestic and international artists, sold at TOWER RECORDS and select shops.

This work will be released soon at http://www.clubking.com/, so please look forward to it.

Not only are Donald's accessories intensely unique,

what's in this case is bone, cremated at Donald's father's funeral.
Apparently, due to the passage of time, these bones have gradually crumbled into something like sand.

First of all, why is something like that here?

It's because his father had asked him, 'When I die, scatter my bones at sea.'

But,

if he's going to do it, he wants to scatter them across the seven seas,
and he's waiting for that chance...



Donald's bed is an American-made coffin.

Wearing all the accessories he's made and likes,

Donald said, 'This is cosplay, right?'

Muneaki Kuyama a.k.a Donald (President of Royal Lazy Type Guild)
Muneaki Kuyama a.k.a Donald. Manufactured in Japan, 1975.
As a founding member of the monthly lifestyle magazine "Free&Easy" (launched in 1997), he planned and edited features such as a solo interview with Sonny Barger of HELLS ANGELS. After seven years, he left to become "real" Free&Easy and went independent. In 2003, he launched the "AMOEBA" project, linking clothing and media, focusing on outsider artists from Japan and abroad through the free paper "NONSENCE" and products that translated their isms and designs into clothing, which were sold at United Arrows. In 2004, he created the video work "LOVIT" themed around the Palestinian separation wall, and developed non-combatant military wear designed by domestic and international artists, sold at TOWER RECORDS and select shops. In 2005, inspired by his encounter with typewriter repair craftsman Mr. Noboru Ogawa, he began the "Royal Lazy Type Guild" project to convey the isms and craftsmanship that everyone had forgotten in the pursuit of profit and convenience to the world. Since then, he has been editing antique junk such as typewriters and mechanical watch dials with domestic and international artists and craftsmen who have joined the guild, and customizing them into props, costumes, and accessories.
