about

Physicist and meteorologist Thomas Corwen Mendenhall (1841-1924) was one of the 'live machines' (known in Japanese as O-yatoi gaikokujn), foreigh experts with specialist skills and knowledge hired by the Japanese government to assist in the modernisation of the Meiji period. From measurements of the force of gravity taken at sea level and at the summit of Mount Fuji, Mendenhall deduced a value for the mass of the earth. As his diary shows, he also wrote like a poet. Two much later sensei, Joseph Juran and W. Edwards Deming, also make cameo appearances.

DAONA London, UK

Formed on a beach one sunny Sunday morning and based in North London, we are two people making music together simply because we want to.

We hope that you find the results pleasing to the ear.
