築地本願寺には仏教寺院としては大変珍しくパイプオルガンが設置されています。
このパイプオルガンは旧西ドイツのワルカー社製で、約１年をかけて製作されました。
長いものでは約３メートル、短いものでは約１センチほどのものまで、大小約２，０００本のパイプ（笛）で構成され、このパイプを伝い演奏者が奏でる「風」が、繊細で荘厳な音色を織りなします。

Today, everyone’s a photographer, grabbing their iPhones for a quick snap. Pictures are posted at a moment’s notice on Facebook and Instagram, so there’s never a void of visuals. Perhaps this image saturation is why surreal photo manipulation is particularly intriguing; smartphone cameras and social networking can’t hold a candle to an artist’s vivid imagination.

Vienna in 1913

• Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin spent a month in the city, meeting Trotsky and writing Marxism and the National Question, with Nikolay Bukharin
• The neurologist Sigmund Freud moved to Vienna in 1860 as a child and left the city in 1938 after the Nazis annexed Austria
• Nazi leader Adolf Hitler is believed to have lived there between 1908 and 1913 where he struggled to make a living as a painter
• Josip Broz, later Yugoslav leader Marshal Tito, was a metalworker before being drafted into the Austro-Hungarian army
• Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky lived in Vienna from about 1907 to 1914, launching paper Pravda

Geneva in 1904
