Today I discovered a great pictureset on flickr, that deals with under-appreciated architectonic elements, that are often associated with “transport” und “wasted space”. The talk is about “Interchanges”. Ken Ohyama takes pictures in Japan of this motorway-elements from the foot passenger point of view. Most pictures were taken at night with long exposure and reveal the magic of this forgotten spaces within the city body. The pictures remind me both on a mystical game world, as well as the unlimited imagination of toys with the ability to think anything, in order to build it. The streets look like moody rollercoasters, while the ghostly pictures somehow talk.
