So, I'm learning the #sanshin . And today a group of us sang and played at the #OIST graduation ceremony where we accompanied the traditional dancers with Kajadefu.
This is from the ceremony livestream; not sure for how long this link will work:

My employer #OIST ( @oistedu.bsky.social ) is opening a special grad student application round for students currently studying at US universities.
The application period begins now and is only two weeks, but if accepted you may be able to start already in September.
Please reshare to get the word out.
FYI, if you happen to be a scientist in a large English-speaking country with uncertain future research financing; my employer, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) is looking for grad students, postdocs and PIs.
It's a research institute, so no undergraduates, and the working language is English - no japanese required. And its located on a (semi) tropical island in the Pacific.
