"This is my homage to Einstein, my superstar since childhood, and his Special Theory of Relativity. Sadly enough, It's inconceivable to photograph somethign while traveling at the speed of light during my lifetime. So I thought to photograph from the Shinkansen at a velocity of 300kph as a small consolation, with the hope that some people might be able to share this humble experiment. And at the same tiem, this is my challenge to the questionable principle of 'time' that I believe is a fabrication made only for the sake of human convenience."
