Venturers
toward the unknown…
In Japan, it is believed that with the dawn of the New Year all our slates are wiped clean. The cares, dilemmas and disasters of the past magically fall away, leaving each of us in essence newborn. If this concept enchants, it takes more than enchantment to give it reality. To be a new being, one must dare to crack the hardened crust of custom – even one’s own cherished customs – and confront one’s self and the world with a sense of venture and a mind as open to wonder as a child’s. This issue is devoted to that questing sense – in fashion, in thought, and even in fantasy. The opening pages provide a brief look at a few of those free spirits in the arts and sciences who are, perhaps, the truest venturers toward the unknown. Which of their innovations will prove valid and revelatory remains to be seen. But the direction of man’s future depends in large measure on the vision, courage and applications of explorers.
