Sven interviewed by CNN about Japanese technology trends

Last Friday, Sven was interviewed by CNN’s Kristie Lu Stout while she was in Tokyo checking out the latest Japanese technology trends. We hit the KDDI Designing Studio in Harajuku where Sven introduced Kristie to the MYSQ Videkura, and then had a little dance party with her as I enviously watched from afar. The full piece aired worldwide today.

A good time was had by all. Many thanks to Kristie and the great crew from CNN.

More good press from the Wall Street Journal

The WSJ’s Amy Chozick has put out another nice Japan-centric piece with input and photos from CScout Japan president Sven Kilian. The first article can be found here. The focus this time is on the ubiquitous black over-the-knee socks that have been the rage as of late.

Below is a photo we took at the Tokyo International Anime Fair that illustrates the point quite well. Quite well indeed.
