Name









The name 'October' is derived from the fact that Ueda was born in October and also the fact that I loved American critical magazine 'October' arguing on film, painting, music, photography, performance, sculpture, literature and architecture. The name of the magazine 'October' is derived from October Revolution on the one hand, the name of our office is not, on the other.
