Field notes

The project began in 2021 with three fathers meeting online once a month around treatment, work, and daily life. Its 48-page square-format book uses a search-and-find structure to introduce hospital rooms, equipment, and staff roles, drawing on interviews with medical workers and children’s input. The listed publication is planned for the end of August 2026, with a free September 5 launch event in Kyoto and online.
