Who is John Hathway?

JH Kagaku (JH科学), or John Hathway Science, is a one-man Japanese doujinshi circle run by a mad genius. A craftsman who built his first Tesla Coil at 13, Hathway is funding radical scientific endeavors with the income made from his art, born of a precision computer process that takes months. He hopes to capture the spirit of Japan as he experiences it in his daily life, not as media or art conditions or presents it. He focuses on urban landscapes because they are largely ignored despite prevalence and applies pink to traditional imagery to capture the discord of moe. His “Magic Town” is a postmodern, jumbled, multi-ethnic, vertical Akihabara. Visit www.mots.jp for more!
