Tokyo's vibrant street graphics combine ancient tradition, 20th-century mass production and a 21st-century urban vision that is uniquely Japanese. Ridley Scott's futuristic film Blade Runner was inspired by Tokyo's neon nightscape, where a fashionable department store doubles as a giant digital TV screen, featuring life-size dinosaurs in Godzilla's hometown. Here, Asian street style meets Western consumerism in a colourful clash of imagery that renders the familiar strange and the strange bizarre. Cartoon characters can signify the police or pornography. Fashion statements are derived from diverse sources ancient Egypt or even a hospital operating theatre. Slot machines vend erotica; pets and cops are robots; tempting dishes of sushi turn out to be inedible plastic models. . .
