Writing in Tokyo



Set to the music of Mikami Kan, a short meditation on the writing process of Ralph Fuccillo has been beautifully crafted by his eldest son, Jeff.

Ralph always writes with pencil on yellow legal pad. His handwriting is decipherable by only a few close associates.

Here we see Ralph scratching out one of his lengthiest pieces yet, in Tokyo, about Tokyo.

From Once a Kid: For a guy from the Bronx, educated in Omaha, living in Portland, Oregon, who almost didn't give Tokyo a chance I found an enchanted city with a mix of the old and the ultra-modern that is absolutely one of my favorites in the world. I wouldn't and couldn't be the kid I am today without Tokyo!
