dam i got the time difference wrong, so here's a corrected announcement.
we'll start at

====> friday, 12 midnight california time,
====> saturday, 3am new york time.

to those who asked, i'll be providing a transcript in english of the
discussion in the weeks following the seminar. i'll also be doing as
much real-time translation/posting of answers to your questions as i
can handle during the event.
big up to ben for getting pure sand's next shit out there months before
it's going to be released. the more people who hear khimura's studio magic
the better.
