Photographs of a badge received in Japan from the Bob Kap Collection, held by UNT Special Collections. In the first photo the front of the badge is visible. It has the US and Japanese flags at the top and two figures playing soccer beneath them. In the second photo the back of the badge is visible. At the top is Japanese writing followed by English that reads "Soccer Friendly Match, 1967.12.26, Nagai Stadium". It is a silver color with aging areas around the edges.

Photograph of a flag from the Bob Kap collection, held by UNT Special Collections. It is from the game between the Dallas Tornado team and the Nishi-Nippon All Stars team. The flag is made from a red cloth material and has yellow and white lettering. There are also patches on the side of the American and Japanese flags and a soccer ball. There are also four small white and red ribbons on the side of it.

The white paper on comprehensive environmental policy describes the role of Japan's economy in a sound global environment. In the first part, the report describes current the environmental conditions of the Earth and of Japan, human activities in Japan and overseas, their environmental impacts, and the pathway to the environmental century. The second part of the white paper reports on various measures.

The document contains the opening addresses of the conveners and presentation slides of the presenters in the Tokyo Office of the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) event. The conference was organized around the idea of introducing two important groups to each other to stimulate new ideas to break through barriers for carbon management, a major environmental and social challenge in the 21st Century.

The August 2003 blackout of the northeastern U.S. and CANADA caused great economic losses and inconvenience to New York City and other affected areas. The blackout was a warning to the rest of the world that the ability of conventional power systems to meet growing electricity demand is questionable. Failure of large power systems can lead to serious emergencies. Introduction of on-site generation, renewable energy such as solar and wind power and the effective utilization of exhaust heat is needed, to meet the growing energy demands of the residential and commercial sectors. Additional benefit can be achieved by integrating these distributed technologies into distributed energy resource (DER) systems. This work demonstrates a method for choosing and designing economically optimal DER systems. An additional purpose of this research is to establish a database of energy tariffs, DER technology cost and performance characteristics, and building energy consumption for Japan. This research builds on prior DER studies at the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) and with their associates in the Consortium for Electric Reliability Technology Solutions (CERTS) and operation, including the development of the microgrid concept, and the DER selection optimization program, the Distributed Energy Resources Customer Adoption Model (DER-CAM). DER-CAM …

Recording of John Gibson's Detour. This work uses recorded sounds of the subways in Tokyo and Kyoto, including machine sounds and platform announcements. The electronic sounds are meant to sharpen the qualities of the soundscape recordings which the composer created on a trip they made to Japan. The sounds of this piece are meant to suggest the feeling of disorientation and dislocation that come with traveling in an unfamiliar, fast-paced city.

Recording of Manuel Rocha Iturbide's Parlantes. This work was inspired by the abundance of screens and loud speakers that fill big cities in Japan. The composer explores the role speakers now play in the daily cultures of Japanese cities. The protagonists of this composition are the speakers and the recorders that reproduce these sounds. This reflects the gradual disintegration of the human voice through modern technology.

Recording of Michel Karsky's Contr'gris. This work was created for the Autumn Music Festival in Moscow and includes spoken Japanese and French text. The word "grisaille" is repeated several times and this composition plays on the notion of "grisaille". The title was recommended to the composer by a Russian musicologist who emphasized the importance of an accent when speaking it.

Recording of Guillermo Senn's Sensaciones 2. This work is a continuation to the piece "Sensaciones 1" by the same composer. The piece was inspired by the world of the senses and their varying levels. The composer notes the text at the end as a social complaint towards many countries around the world struggling with political peace. The excerpt comes from the film "Madadayo" by Akira Kurosawa.

Recording of Sylvi MacCormac's Waves of Kokoro. This work is an electroacoustic soundscape for Kokoro Dance and includes the voice work of Barbara Bourget and Jay Hirabayashi. This piece received Honorable Mention at IMEB, Synthse '99.

Recording of Cécile Le Prado's V.O. mito esquisse radiophonique.

Recording of Johannes S. Sistermanns' I hear you think. This work consists of various concrete sounds as well as spoken text written by Hazrat Inayat Khan.

Recording of Pierre Mariétan's Les dits de nobuyo. The composer states: "The "reality show" is that of the sound, of its own story implemented here in the relationship of the voices to each other with the noises captured, all of this inscribed in the silence of the composition. What these sounds, the voices, the story say, is to be interpreted by the listener according to his feelings, the awareness of what he perceives. The reality show does not want to be, like on television, the alibi of a unique and bygone reality. Its conclusion is that of the listener, discovering through the acoustic image that comes to him, not a visual representation of the sound (whatever one does one will never see a sound), but a formal configuration , dimensioned, resulting from the alliance of sound and space."
