Alex and James joined me in Yoyogi Park for a nice walk and Alex said he felt more alive after walking barefoot.

We got to walk on a thin layer of snow, see an interesting apple in a tree, see an interesting line in the soil and what looked like new soil for Flower Land.

After watching dogs in the three dogs runs, we played with leaves above the vents under which Chiyoda Line runs.

I'm working on my first animation piece: a full length stop motion movie of characters building Marble Track 3, a working rolling ball track made of wood and glue. (popsicle sticks, chopsticks, toothpicks, etc.)

I've been working about 2 hours per week since 2017. 10,000+ frames taken so far. At 12 frames per second, the video runs about 14 minutes.

It all started after I uploaded a video of Marble Track 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlUqu6QE7bw (nsfw language) and some people asked me how I made the marble track.

This URL will show (a playlist of the snippets showing) in great detail exactly how to create a marble track.

https://mt3s.marbletrack3.com/

The snippets are still silent, given that filming isn't even close to completion.

On the same channel, there are behind the scenes videos of me creating the track. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHiQhB8J_KI2LYQ7dsexfLw

I have done some livestreams and recently some "summary" videos, done in a timelapse style.

Because work on the track takes a lot of time, almost every piece has its own name, and the site https://www.marbletrack3.com/ aspires to document all the pieces, and show which characters made which parts of the track.

While I am hoping the project organically gains visibility and financial support, I am not pushing for that so I retain creative freedom. In any case, I will keep making the movie of characters making Marble Track 3.
