Video journalist, BarTube management, Mr. Toshiaki Kanda with a variety of face, such as university lecturer. BarTube of Shibuya Udagawa-cho, which features a video studio for the world's first post in 2006, as a space to fuse the net and realistic, and shines among a lot of bar Shibuya. As a journalist, as an IT entrepreneur, also as a restaurant manager, I was told I think for the Shibuya freely.

- Please tell me the Shibuya of the encounter.

It is graduated from the university, he became well visited as the. I moved to Tokyo from Kansai. There scenery as seen on TV in here and there "here NHK huh" Nante, had been one by one impressed. I scramble intersection was impressed also visited many times as a "Naa's city" in particular (laughs). Did you Kamaeyo an office in Shibuya ?? it would be why (laughs). It was also because they lived originally in Sangenjaya, also the transport links go to see people from good, it is also greater effortless even for get come to the people. It also will also come by car on the train, convenient place to meet because there are many symbolic place. Speaking because right now there is a mobile phone "I come for the time being in Shibuya", you then you have is made somehow. In that sense, Shibuya it can be thought of as a "story is early town" (laughs).

- "BarTube" is, What kind of was opened in the circumstances.

Self-catering or, but it was like the office to drink a drink as the bar. So, in the office of the past roughly, it was making the bar space. First, but I was looking for a free office that can ensure the bar space in Shibuya, not found quite good properties. On one occasion, when I drink in the acquaintance of the bar, I was told, "Well than I should find a bar vacant store of". If you look for, I rent was noticed that cheaper than the office. So because there was a good property, daytime is where I work, until 0:00 o'clock 21 decided to open a bar (laughs). Operating time is short of it, because it is the most time zone in which the audience is visiting, sales modestly (laughs). Also previously past 21 o'clock, I was or write a document beside the audience is drinking. Also spatially, because hardly deal with paper documents completely paperless recently, I guess these styles can also be. While expanding the expected large amount of material, to the work in this place is tight. We, such as newspaper clippings are also organized on blogs and mixi, it from anywhere you can work if they have the network now. However, when the network has stopped is, a little trouble. In fact, not come out is Google's schedule in relation to also line this morning, no longer know for a while may be doing (laughs). Too it relies so much to be Naa scary.

- Kanda, who has been working in the world of the net, to have a realistic store, what kind of mood'll I do?

I think that fusion of the net and realistic is the theme from now. Web1.0 is "see web", Web2.0 think Iarawaseru as "use the web", and Web3.0 to visit now is "guess by us web". In fact, I put in this month 20 days "web 3.0-inch social-realistic and the net, walks up era -" I the title of it is of that (laughs) ... is now in net walked realistically, that of their own I think that it will evolve into "me guess" direction. For example, when you search for "Shibuya of restaurants", rather than simply the information is list, based on the personal information you have registered, "If you wanted to invite the ○○'s, this shop of the budget is about 6,000 yen or tell me Nante What do "is. In addition, if we have this magazine if "You will have both of △△ card and □□ card, here △△ it is'm cheap that issued the card." "Now, now how much deals you'll "and the like, if me to proposals from the other side, I do think the net is easy to use more. In that sense, for me, the world and realistic store of the net is not an never far away, has become a space to try what can be fused at how interesting form. The interesting places the net and realistic is fused, there is Nakano Broadway. In that building we have gathered unique shops, but I think I have a shop that mainly doing delivery work of the net auction. So, if the visitor is coming, and or a long talk with a cup of tea (laughs).

- The future, "BarTube" is, or do you think that advances in what direction.

There a lot of ideas, we are also considering to increase the store. Day of the week by has to open and Ppoku music events and culture school "stretch Course" even now. After that, there is also that he is doing the music, I want to make even a shop someday hear of live. If it finds even recent Mature layer of very spirited to or recruiting a band because there ... good condition store, I want to start right away. Certainly my core business is the net-related, but I think that it is important to learn something through the original "experience". The important thing is to actually experience it doing me also a lot crazy. There is a thing in the past to became a problem to run Segway (the two-wheeled electric vehicle) on public roads, but there was a reason that I tried because it was gray zone is the legal place where the inquiry is also there. You think that it is worth to try the gray zone for the venture, I think Is it possible to speak precisely because the experience. So, I for students of the school, which has served as a lecturer with the "white lot of experience because it is a little much reckless", we always talk. Looking at the recent young people, still in many cases that it is a going to found checked on the net. To go to tourist destinations were checked in the net to take a commemorative photo, we often do not know the journey that end with the shopping. Listening to such talk has said, "to make at any time by the unreasonable If you are interested dare live in one month." Roughly, now because you can buy things in the world on the net, even the act of shopping at the travel destination, You no longer have any meaning as before.

- Among the Shibuya, What Where it is frequently visited location.

In fact, we use well the "Shibuya market" in the Tokyu Plaza underground. It's elaborate cooking. Shibuya market is not have been surprisingly known, but was surprised with the "I have a place like this in Shibuya" when I was also visited by first heard, from a friend. Something meat, it's delicious but incredibly cheap. Fishmonger also Uncle rattle voice like being in Tsukiji will tell say "this'm delicious Once boiled". Where the riot a sense of intimacy while remaining in front of the station. I guess say "off the beaten path" such a place. It is a mini theater that in addition to your favorite place. So too I go to frequently, I think even whether to become a film director (laughs).

- Would you like Shibuya challenges.

Hey That's right, I think it is a large gap between the generations. Shibuya am also adults or flow in Roppongi just because young people are often, but I think that it wasteful. Certainly, there is no young person is also less of "I wonder is amazing brackets" If you see only appearance, contents may or may not change much with us. Fast food restaurants in the "recently, what is popular doing?" Is also talking abruptly and, I because you told me normally say "Ne is the Well ...". So, I think be nice if there is a place like a salon that something common theme in the generations can interact. Is an example to really, but if there is a place where "people who are bullied experience" is get together, not only students, might be some people that will talk about their experiences in the workplace. For one of the theme, if Hanashiae various generations and people of the environment, but it should be born is surely a good idea. Do such place is interesting when there in Shibuya, I think I.

- Future, in Shibuya, I want to be any town or.

I want a city that would forgive the failure. Everyone is experiencing, to fail, that Ae shares its failure town. In this sense, it is said to be the city that you can feel free to challenge even in young people that want to set up a venture. After the successful company becomes larger, I think it okay to create jobs out to other city. So you do not need to just those that mature are gathered. It is a personal opinion, but I want a lot of experimental field in Shibuya. Because I have much trouble and IT companies are integrated, for example, Toka cafe clerk only robot, Toka shoe store the computer us to order to automatically Milan craftsmen to measure the size of the foot, through a network of Massachusetts Toka hospital doctors of University of Technology us to examination (laughs). It would be fun you were town to learn a little play in adults. Should it become a city, such as referred to as the "Shibuya marketing campus". I think its purpose, rather than "a box-shaped incubation" is also, I want you to take care of the human network of people of many generations to gather in Shibuya. It will be born is also surely a lot of failure, but I share it. Soshitara The following people do not have to fail. After what was, But I'm good even held a "failure Night" Nante events each other boasted failure to each other in our house of the store (laughs).
