A coincidental increase of apparently mentally ill people showing up in my immediate vicinity???

Yesterday an apparently mentally ill homeless man who had set up a garbage filled camp by the river near the spot I take the children to play and practice the shakuhachi harassed us. He had a chair set up as well to the south, and had snuck up behind me and approached my kids with a plastic bag in which he said he had insects to show them. When my kids backed away from him and I became aware of his presence, I accosted him verbally, and he told me not to play the shakuhachi there because there was a hotel nearby (the newly opened Ritz-Carlton).

I called the police , naturally, and during the course of them going back and forth, he made a get away, though I believe that they took his name, etc. I didn't take a photo of him, unfortunately, but here is the camp he's set up.





















Today, another apparently mentally ill (or feigning to be so) vagrant that I had first seen at night on my way to the cafe--along a route I frequently take--a couple of weeks ago showed up along the route I walk to pick up the kids from nursery school, having parked his bike in the road and sat on the curb.

I asked him what he was doing, and he was stumped for an answer, eventually replying that he was waiting for someone. I told him not to block the road or sit there, taking his photo and telling him I would show it to the police, which I did, tonight.

The first photo is from August 13th, the first time he showed up, the others from today, the 31st.






























For technical reasons unknown to me, the following video clip has poor resolution and is much smaller than the screen displayed when replayed with QuickTime. I will have to find a way to fix that.

The Enemy Within, Part 1: Neoliberalism

There is much more to say about the French and their activities here in Kyoto, so it will have to be done in a piecemeal manner, as time permits. In this post, I’m going to examine Stephane Vogley’s business front here in a little more detail, and a Frenchman connected to the finance sector (Credi Lyonnais) named Christian Lengelle, who is another suspected officer in France’s equivalent of the CIA, the GDSE. 

I have described the efforts of two CIA officers connected to the finance sector who I met while studying at UC Berkeley. Both of those sociopaths tried to convince me to leave Kyoto, and part of the rationale for that is that they were intending to move in themselves, with a horde of other sociopaths from the finance sector that had amassed substantial amounts of ill-gotten gain through the derivatives-related perfidy with respect to which Eric Holder prosecuted not a single culprit. 

Both Vogley and Lengelle, like Peterka and Roughan, are such  Western intelligence agency sociopaths, working directly in the finance industry or in close coordination and facilitated thereby. 

There is probably a fairly large contingency of Western intelligence officers endeavoring to establish themselves by making inroads into Japan by opening up its markets to what I refer to as Empire Finance, which is a weapon wielded primarily by the nation states of the USA, UK, and France, but also Switzerland, Hong Kong and Singapore as well as off-shore tax havens, etc. 

Note that finance per se is only one aspect of the societal espionage being conducted wielding as weapons sleight-of-hand economic policies disguised in technocratic vestments with the blessings of a finance controlled academia. I'm thinking of tax policies such as those adopted by the government of Ireland to entice American tech companies to set up shop there, tax policies that have tentatively been deemed to violate the EU charter. 

Here's a good breakdown of the scenario regarding Ireland's parasitic corporate tax system. http://www.dailytech.com/EU+is+Ready+to+Charge+Apple+for+Taking+Illegal+Tax+Aid+From+Ireland/article36625.htm

In its preliminary findings, the EC finds Ireland and Apple guilty of violating laws in the EU charter that prohibit giving state aid to private corporations without a consensus. The EC writes:

In the light of the foregoing considerations, the Commission's preliminary view is that the tax ruling of 1990 (effectively agreed in 1991) and of 2007 in favour of the Apple group constitute State aid according to Article 107(1) TFEU [Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union]. The Commission has doubts about the compatibility of such State aid with the internal market. The Commission has therefore decided to initiate the procedure laid down in Article 108(2) TFEU with respect to the measures in question.

Ireland's tax policies are simply a form of off-shore haven exploitable by corporations instead of wealthy criminals seeking to hide their ill-gotten gain. The Irish tax policy is basically parasitic on American society, targeting its high tech industry. It makes one wonder whether the Irish government thought of that on their own, or were encouraged to pursue such a course by Wall St., intelligence operatives, oligarchs anonymous, etc., with a supra-national agenda. That is to say, a supra-national agenda formulated on a neoliberal (which is related to laissez-faire) ideology that has the effect of weakening the nation state and strengthening trans-national corporations and finance.

Suffice it to say that the operations documented here are more complex and would appear to be planned by Western intelligence agencies working in close conjunction with the finance sector, etc. Lengelle probably works in the finance industry in Tokyo ( a fact which he chooses to conceal), and Vogley does not appear to have been capable of establishing the company TMMS and positioning it in the Japanese market on his own. 

Like all of the intelligence operatives I've met, Vogley could basically be characterized as a somewhat hapless, otherwise nondescript individual that has only achieved his position through intelligence agency network connections. His portrayed rise to entrepreneurship simply doesn't hold up to scrutiny, much like the published writings of MI6 pseudo-intellectuals like John Dougill, CIA pseudo-journalists like Kris Kosaka et al, etc. 

It has to be emphasized that these intelligence officers are paid by their respective governments to network with each other in their collaborative efforts to subvert the socio-economic system of the countries targeted by their governments. Sometimes they have already implanted compromised individuals into positions of political power in the target country, as is the case with Abe Shinzo and the entire LDP in Japan. In such a case as Japan, there is no doubt that the CIA/MI6/DGSE et al. are recruiting agents as proxies, but they may also be directly collaborating with Japanese intelligence officers as well.

Here, it bears noting that the State Secrets Act passed by the Abe administration and encouraged and praised by the Obama administration includes as state secrets the relationship between the Japanese intelligence agencies and foreign intelligence agencies. 

First, on this page of Vogley’s company website
Vogley is described as
President and formerly a Microelectronic Engineer who specialized in Technology Marketing and Quality Auditing in Japan for a major European company and later on Manager of a sourcing office in Asia.

The webpage includes a blocked section of text entitled “Our Values”.
That text recites:

Respect of the person, cultures and environment
(Neoliberalism certainly does not respect cultures or the environment, and what is meant by the somewhat nonsensically rendered English, “the person”, is unintelligible, but obviously similar double-speak. This is similar to the other frequently seen misrepresentations of intelligence officers as "progressive", socially conscientious, etc.)

Dedication to our families and our tasks
Well, it is unclear what the topic of “families” has to do with the operation of a technology marketing business, but neoliberalism involves a class-related “family values” dimension that serves to mask the category of class.

We are a Service Company, not Traders

- We provide Analysis of Trend in Japanese Market and sourcing of suppliers or partners in Japan.

- Our experience of Asian business and culture allows us to offer Consulting service to the Management of Foreign Companies on business strategy and negotiation in Japan and Asia.

High Tech:

We manage for our customers and own several international patents and are actively working on development of application with our Japanese partners.


On Vogley’s LinkedIn page,
he discloses that he worked as a: 

  • Technology Marketing Engineer for Alcatel Japan (2/2000 - 12/2002: 2 years 11 months), 
  • Commodity Manager for EPIQ Group in France (1/2003 - 1/2004: 1 year 1 month), 
  • Chief Representative for EPIQ Shanghai (1/2004 - 1/2005: 1 year 1 month), and 
  • General Manager for GPSL (1/2005 - 8/2006: 1 year 8 months), which is described as a sourcing company.

Generally speaking, stints of a year are shorter than what would normally be the case for executive level positions at such companies, so I assume that the company called EPIQ, which is claimed to be headquartered in the USA on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/48964?trk=prof-exp-company-name but has no homepage, whereas there appears to be a Beligium company with that name http://www.cliffordchance.com/news/news/2011/08/clifford_chance_advisesimiontheacquisitionofepiqsubsidiariesineu.html, serves as a front company for the CIA/DGSE et al. and helps them infiltrate intelligence officers into the business world.

Aside from that, it seems that Vogley’s company is sort of a patent troll, though it is unclear how he would have researched the patents to buy and where he would have obtained the funding to acquire the patents that seem to be serving as the basis for his company’s tie up with Murata, but that would be easy for an intelligence agency of a developed country. One thing is clear; that is to say, Vogley is not the inventor of any of the technology he markets, as he holds no patents whatsoever or any pending applications, as far as Internet searches of the WIPO database and the like show.

The point is that what Vogley et al. are engaged in is not industrial espionage, but societal espionage. Apparently, he has established a company with the guidance and covert material backing of the government of France through its intelligence agency. He operates that company on the basis of an intellectual property tie up with a Japanese manufacturer, for which he apparently servers as a coordinator for outsourcing related thereto. In other words, he is serving to outsource high tech jobs from Japan to companies controlled by owners connected to the Western intelligence agencies in other countries where the French intelligence agency (in collaboration with the CIA, etc.) have installed a corrupt governments that promote “globalization” as a means to open up their labor markets to global “investors”. Such corrupt governments serve the interest of the landed gentry, so to speak, as opposed to The People.

Meanwhile, pseudo-entrepreneur intelligence officers like Vogley are then provided with social psychologist support networks including intelligence officers like Paul Crouse and Dave Dalsky of the CIA, Derrick Tran of Australia's equivalent of the CIA (the ASIS), and Russel Trott of the MI6 (England) to placate the local people who find themselves with skills but unemployed in the globalized neoliberal world order. 

The placation involves imbuing the disaffected with a self-centered disposition, which is central to the self-help psychologism snake oil being peddled by Crouse and Tran. While society is being structurally dividing and conquered by transnational corporations on the macro level, intelligence officer sociopaths are working to bring about the People that constitute society by atomizing them into discrete units that are disconnected from society and each other. Assessing this situation, Thomas Jefferson might have said that the citizenship is being dis-member-ed, so to speak, one at a time, until there is only an amorphous populace remaining. 

Who is Christian Lengelle?

This recent article in the Financial Times,
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/a03d15b6-2b08-11e5-acfb-cbd2e1c81cca.html, “Why Foreigners are seeking ‘worthless’ wooden homes in Kyoto”

Christian Lengelle, a Frenchman based in Tokyo, is restoring several machiya for rental to tourists. “I love the historical value of  those houses,” he says. The cost of renovation is “anything between Y300,000 to Y800,000 [about $2,400 to $6,500] per tsubo” — a Japanese measurement equivalent to 3.3 sq metres.

Machiya owners who let their property can expect rental income of about Y18,000 ($145) per night in high season, and half that in low season, according to Ken Hayashi, who runs House Network, a buying agency for foreigners.



Christian Lengelle is a retired Finance industry sociopath and a suspected officer in the French DGSE intelligence agency. He once held the position of “Credit Lyonnais' managing director and head of equity derivatives for North America in New York”.

He is mentioned not only in the above-linked mass media articles, but also in the following book by an academic about organizational behavior. Here, it bears repeating that the Western intelligence agencies control a broad swath of the mass media as well as publishers, and they use that control to promote intelligence officers in civil society, as appears to be the case here with an otherwise apparent nobody Frenchman named Christian Lengelle. He is mentioned in Chapter 4 (p. 89) of the book:
downloaded here: 
https://www.academia.edu/6170616/Chapter_Four_Learning_Objectives

     ‘This pub-culture just isn’t French’, says Christian Lengelle from Crédit Lyonnais. ‘We are not used to going to the café after work to have a drink with colleagues. But I do know some French bachelors who will join their British collegues for a dinner of beer and peanuts.’ Lengelle believes it is easier for Britons to negotiate with their partners to be allowed at least one weekly drink with workmates, because this is a part of the British culture.
     ‘German and French employees have to struggle through lengthy conversations to convince their partners that a night at the pub is as vital for their careers as showing up on time for their meetings’, he says. ‘The French and the Germans like to keep their work and private lives separate’, says a British analyst working at a German bank. ‘They don’t like contacts outside the office very much.’ Americans, on the other hand, like to boast that they are good at organizing dinners with their collegues. ‘I invite the entire team for a dinner at my home to celebrate the closing of a deal’, says Jeff Lubin from New York. ‘This enhances trust and loyalty.’


We can see that Lengelle is 40-49 years of age and ran a 10K affiliated with the 2015 Saipan marathon in 58 minutes.


He apparently had a personal website (http://www.christianlengelle.com/) until fairly recently; unfortunately, it wasn’t archived.
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:AxlPgQGXZogJ:domainsigma.com/whois/christianlengelle.com+&cd=4&hl=ja&ct=clnk&gl=jp

Apparently he has a company in Bali.
Company: CHRISTIAN LENGELLE
Address: JL PANTAI SESEH BANJAR SESEH, DESA CEMAGGI BALI NA 80025 ID
Phone: +62.8174710655


He apparently had another company in New York that has been dissolved:

He describes himself on his LinkedIn profile as a photographer living in NYC.

In fact, as the Financial Times article states, Lengelle lives in Tokyo, and owns at least one house in Kyoto (Nanzanjikitanobocho) that he rents out as a vacation rental, and is reportedly restoring others:
https://www.airbnb.fr/rooms/3277929 (French, includes more info, photos, etc.)
through a network connected to Ken Hayashi, a Japanese that appears to have been educated in the USA.
He, in turn, seems to be connected to Naoko Miki, who may be the mysterious translator for the DGSE-front website RealKyoto calling herself "Pamela" of “Miki Associates”, a non-existent company.


Lengelle is a apparently a technically savvy Frenchman (maybe his is being provided guidance by Vogley…), as he has preemptively excluded his photos on his website from being archived, as shown below. The French version of webpage https://www.airbnb.fr/rooms/3277929 includes a number of photographs that could enable a determined individual to locate the house. Even if he takes it down after reading this post it will be available as a cached page for some time...

Who are Stephane Vogley, Paul Crouse, Derrick Tran and Philip Gurney; moreover, what is their connection to the neoliberal world order the CIA et al. are putsch-ing on Kyoto?

I mentioned Crouse and Tran’s involvement in propagating a form of psychologism in a previous post, and will examine that in some detail in this post, with relevant background vis-a-vis the horizon of neoliberalism being propagated by the Western intelligence agencies. This is a somewhat counterintuitive counterpoint to the pseudo-culture efforts of a France nostaligic for a long lost haute couture...


Stephane Vogely is a suspected officer in the French DGSE, one of two French intelligence officers—along with a CIA officer and an MI6 officer--who had his kids enrolled in the nursery school that I had to sue the city in order to enroll my son.

Here is Vogley’s FB account:
and his Google+ account, where he describes himself as, “Technofreak and boss of my own company in Japan”, :
and this link is to his company, TMMS:
Technology Marketing & Management Solutions
The bridge that connect "Technologies" and "Enterprises".
Together with Nature we make tomorrow.

Vogley is a guy who knew that I had already taken Dalsky et al to task, so he tried to befriend me in a half-hearted manner, and talked about the potential for collaborating on translation work. His daughter was a couple of years ahead of my son, so they shared the same joint classrooms for her last year, and we all met frequently, including at the annual sports day festival and the like.

Vogley used to complain to me about the Japanese tax authorities giving him a hard time because he was outsourcing his work overseas, and he seemed to be trying to elicit sympathy or empathy from me with regard to something he presented as his plight, the struggle of a foreigner trying to run a small technology start up in Japan. Vogley drives a new BMW SUV, and is hardly struggling, aside from running the company, he has a salary from the French government, so I was somewhat slighted by his attempt to manipulate me into siding with him against the Japanese government in support of his sociopathic activities as an officer of the DGSE engaged in societal espionage here in Japan, in Kyoto, nonetheless.

Vogley is serving as a pseudo-startup protagonist in the global wave of neoliberalism being promoted by the United States, first and foremost, followed by the UK, France, Canada, Australia, etc. Like his predecessors in the USA that started adopting the practice of outsourcing and pushing for increased numbers of visas to allow programmers into the USA from India and other developing countries, Vogley is participating in the global assault on high tech workers in developed countries in the same manner that trade agreements such as NAFTA was used to transfer manufacturing jobs from the USA to Mexico, for example.

Personally, I would like to see the Japanese government enact much stricter laws regulating outsourcing practices, aiming to maintain the order and a degree of cohesiveness of Japanese society, rather than see it go the way of American society and become atomized, basically.

Vogely and all of the Western intelligence officers that I have encountered in Japan, particularly in Kyoto, are engaged in an effort to undermine the social fabric of Japanese society from the inside out.

Intelligence officers like Paul Crouse and Derrick Tran, meanwhile, are trying to convince the Japanese that they come into contact with that they need to focus on self-improvement in order to cope with an unstoppable inevitability represented in terms of the neoliberal world order.

Crouse has been in Japan for quite some time, and I first met him about 15 years ago. He has a website:
Note that he attempts to lead people to believe that they way that they should cope with their problems is not socially, in conjunction with other Japanese people, but in isolation. He encourages peoples to “connect inwardly”, and to use their “magic” in order to “Thrive in a rapidly changing world”.

Of course, any Japanese that he can indoctrinate into that thought system then becomes a potential candidate to be recruited by the CIA as an “agent” to further promote the neoliberal pogrom in Japan.

I've posted a couple of links to information on Tran earlier, 
http://www.pechakucha.org/cities/kyoto
but there is more. 
A website with a substantial profile on him is found here:
http://www.icoachacademy.com/testimonials/derrick-tran-personal-development-coach-japan/ where he states, "My vision for my coaching practice is to improve the quality of my clients’ life by supporting and guiding them through self-discovery of their values, beliefs and choices they have to reach their destinations."

The Integral Solutions Japan website still hosts information on him, including this mission statement of sorts. 
Philip Gurney is simply a Canadian intelligence officer (like Eric Luong) that is Tran's cohort whom I happened upon in researching Tran. He has a fairly sparse online footprint, but there are some photos of him here (seeking ESL students), aside from his statements on the above-linked page for his joint venture with Tran.
Philip believes that cultural differences provide us with opportunities to grow and learn, and that intercultural communication skills can help facilitate that learning and growth... he did not seriously consider his own culture until he moved to Kyoto to study classical martial arts and teach ESL. Life in Japan provided many challenges, but Philip approached them the same way he approached challenges in the dojo: by reflecting on his experiences, seeking knowledge, and adapting.  

The Health/Fitness industry angle

Along with the likes of Crouse and Tran there has been a rapid increase in American sports training facilities in Kyoto, such as Golds Gym, for example. We constantly are receiving junk mail from them, and they are not making a profit, as there are already more than enough gyms around.

Crouse features an interview with a suspected MI6 officer on his website, a relative newcomer to Kyoto named Russell Trott.
Apparently Tibetan Buddhist meditation inspired him to become a physical fitness trainer, as he is the Director of Crossfit Kyoto:
http://www.crossfitkyoto.com/about/director/ 
Here is his Facebook page:
He is involved in running a place called CrossFit Kyoto,
which has a Facebook page as well:
Note that they also have a branch in Osaka, so it’s a franchise, of sorts:
People are listed as owners:
(Kazuyuki Makido, Japanese)
(Sean McAulfiffe, Australian)
A guy found listed as a friend on some of these FB pages, Vijay Raj, who lives in India, describes himself as,Director at CrossFit Life Performance / CrossFit L1 Seminar Staff
His Facebook page work description includes this link:
Which includes the link to the website of the main organization, which is based in the USA and has numerous American military affiliates:
And its Head Quarters is in Washington, DC, which means it is probably directly connected to the CIA:
CrossFit Inc
1250 Connecticut Avenue, N.W.
Suite 200
Washington, DC 20036

It goes without saying to many people that Kyoto is home to numerous traditional Japanese martial arts schools in addition to long-established yoga classes held at temples, gyms, etc. Nonetheless, even the martial arts taught in Kyoto are a form of culture with a philosophy and mental component accompanying the physical training. In fact, Kyoto has had such a tradition for more than a thousand years.

Culture is the predominant theme in Kyoto, even with respect to “training”. The ethos of physical fitness mania projected by these Facebook pages, Gold’s Gym advertisements, etc., are basically anathema to Japanese culture. I will scan one of the Gold’s Gym flyers at some point, but for now:
Gold’s has two places in Kyoto, one of which is open 24 hours:

Part of the presentation effort seeks to portray even Westerners that come to live in Kyoto as spending all of their time at the gym. This is, in fact, a part of the West attempt to inculcate a mentality disposed toward militarism in Japanese society through undermining the Japanese mindset and Japanese culture. Barack Obama has aimed his legion of CIA sociopaths at Kyoto.

Accordingly, almost all of the people involved with these economically not self-sustaining businesses are part of the neocolonial class of Western intelligence officers colonizing Kyoto, and some of their Japanese recruits as well as cohorts in the Japanese intelligence service.

Obviously, if you are a Westerner here in Kyoto that is affiliated with a college or university, you have access to the facilities at the school. So, take for example, suspected CIA officer Michael Campbell,
a self-described “JPS Research Fellow at Kyoto University” studying philosophy who is on the Friends list of Crouse, Trott et al. and is liking (and perhaps featured in) photos taken by Crouse that are posted on the CrossFit Facebook page, like these:

Since we are naming names, it is probably safe to assume that the two Americans in this photo (Kelly Kaminskaite, Kristopher Littlefield) are CIA officers:


I’ve drifted a bit off topic with respect to the higher level operatives spearheading the neoliberal assault for their corporatist overlords, so I’ll wrap this post up here.

The Western intelligence agencies' pseudo-culture industry in Kyoto, presently conducted from Paris, France

The faux art scene in Kyoto is a form of pollution that has been emanating largely from France in recent years. 

On the one hand, it serves as a milieu through which the Western intelligence agencies make the pretense of introducing spies evincing an interest of culture, without having to brave the perils of making a pretense to being interested in traditional Japanese culture. It also creates an alternative to the traditional cultural milieu of Kyoto, and can be used as a means to attempt to dilute or otherwise render the traditional cultural forms less meaningful than they are. 

This post is sort of a mishmash of various factions of interconnected individuals and groups, because it appears that I have been somewhat successful in disrupting the perfidy of the sociopaths in the CIA et al.

Like other posts, I hope to get back to this and improve it as time permits. There are some screen shots I took from the  videos of Kyoto Nuits Blanche and related events, mostly of the credits.

Though this post encompasses more than France and the French intelligence officer sociopaths in Kyoto, you have to start somewhere in the morass... Topics like the PechaKucha events, etc., may be treated separately in future posts.

First, I’ll introduce a couple of other (i.e., non-French) forms of detritus washing up on the shores of the Land of the Rising Sun from the flotsam and jetsam of that great shipwreck that is (was) the West: PechaKucha.
Ariya Sasaki (mentioned in post on Zimbleman) has been on my radar for quite some time, and I’ve already discussed Luong, briefly. Sasaki will require a dedicated post, so I went dwell on her here. One of the links related to Luong also includes Derrick Tran (a suspected officer in the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS)), whom I’ll introduce here, as he is also part of the organizer nexus of this co-opted ‘event’:
http://www.pechakucha.org/cities/kyoto
Group page
Event page
Joint presentation by Luong and Sasaki:

Here, Tran markets himself as a "Personal and Professional Development Coach", similar to Paul Crouse (former Villa Tonodan resident discussed in CIA Dawn O’Day post). There is no market for such services in Kyoto (is there anywhere?), and such individuals are apparently purveyors of a sort of neoliberal pyschologism doctrine to accompany the infiltration of neoliberal socio-economics and the pseudo culture of “multi-culturalism”.

Here is a link to an archived page of Luong’s former (now closed) gallery business, “3F” that was in my neighborhood, and at which CIA sociopaths like John Einarsen exhibited their mediocre photography. There is more on this below, and the archived pages need to be examined more closely at some point, but what is below will suffice for the present. http://web.archive.org/web/20130704075910/http://www.3-gai.com/

Note that for the presenter listed as "Apothoke norihito (Promote Diversity)", there are no photos, and s/he has used an assumed name. If the theme about “diversity” related to promoting diversity in Kyoto, that would be a common aspect of the project by CIA officers aimed at undermining Japanese mutual intelligibility of their culture, of which Kyoto is said to represent the epitome. Take, for example, suspected CIA officer Ted Taylor, who passes himself off as an “internationalizer” on his blog.

A common feature of the intelligence agency sociopaths is forming mutual support networks aimed at propelling their respective false ascents in the civil society of the host country (upon which they are parasites). Luong and his cohort, Tran, represent a type of transplant with Asian heritage who were bred in the West and dispatched to help colonize the old country. Sasaki is a publicity hungry, narcissistic and ambitious woman with little else going for her, aside from the ironic fact that she fashions herself as a Buddhist “Priestess”, also fits that mold as well, and her family is originally from Kyoto. This documentary by Aljazeera featuring her is of note:
https://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/viewfinder/asia/2013/06/2013625112631305367.html.

Taylor features in the recently launched “Writers in Kyoto” CIA/MI6 front—another faux culture/faux intellectual Western intelligence agency front—that was ostensibly founded by Dougill and includes 8-9 individuals I’ve blogged about as well as a slew of others I haven’t (who are intelligence officers). I’ll examine that group in more detail in a dedicated post, but here is a link to the Japan Times article through which I came to know about the group, http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/05/10/national/writers-kyoto-offers-expats-forum-discuss-state-publishing-japan/#.VcYW8_ntlBd, and a link to the website.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Tadgs-irish-Bar-and-Restaurant-Kyoto/169515196410338 (Tadg is another suspected Irish G2 intelligence officer)

These interrelated threads seem to encompass a lot of information, because the intelligence agencies have adopted a strategy of increasing the presence of more senior people through group representations, as opposed to retreating into obscurity, basically because their covers are already exposed and they have limited future utility as intelligence officers. Meanwhile, the CIA et al. appears to have undertaken an effort to conceal the identities of some of the younger intelligence officers exposed below.

THE FRENCH
Isabelle Olivier is a name that appears along with Sasaki, Zimbleman et al, and she is an officer in the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which means that she is an officer in the DGSE (France's version of the CIA) operating under official cover (with diplomatic immunity).

The main event sponsored by the French—which they launched a few years ago—is an annual affair called Kyoto Nuits Blanche, which both Sasaki and Tran (neither of whom have any connections to France) are involved in organizing…
You can see the yakuza connected mayor of Kyoto hobnobbing it with some purveyors of haute couture consumerism straight from Paris in the video for the 2013 event. Admittedly, it does get people involved in society and away from their televisions… Here is the Youtube video introducing the event. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNK_0t2kcrE (2013)

You’ll note some of the names in the credits of the following Youtube videos of the “final reports” for the events held in 2013 and 2014, a couple of others I’ll introduce, and others are for future reference.
Here is the first Youtube clip.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19RBi_H9WjU





The guy going by the stage name “ryotaro” is an accordion player that I used to see perform with an American dancer and suspected CIA officer named Mitsu Salmon. He may have been in the faux band fronted by Canadian intelligence officer Mark (aka Max) Dodds. For better or worse, she’s not shy, and you can see some of her performances here: http://www.mitsusalmon.com/work/#/ryotaro/

Andre Samuel is suspected to be either a CIA agent or a French intelligence officer. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=530334643





























Look! It 's Sean Lotman! Why, he's in with the French, too...
…just like his British MI6 cohort Hal Udell… 
both of whom provided entertainment at the after party:

Note (also above) that Monsignor Couzens made a repeat appearance in 2014 as well...































Doriss Ung, Jane Motin, and Eric Luong staging a Nuit Blanche performance at Luong’s former Canadian-intelligence-agency-sponsored gallery space.

He also hosted a pre-party there:
And created a Facebook page for the above performance as well:
https://www.facebook.com/events/230931770393282/There is a poor quality video for a part of that performance (Installation [Villa Fragile] by Doriss Ung & Jane Motin) connected to the Kyoto Nuits Blanche event from Luong's closed gallery space:

The website, "RealKyoto", has implemented coding that disables copy-and-paste from your browser, making it more of a chore to write about and quote from.
There is absolutely nothing related to traditional Japanese culture and Kyoto on the entire blog; it is merely providing coverage of international events, of which there has been an increase, and the people involved that they are trying to promote. Is it an intelligence front? Good question! It appears to be run by people affiliated with a local art school, trying to promote its students and graduates, apparently, in conjunction with the intelligence agencies.

Here’s another event intelligence agency-front event at which Lotman gave a presentation on photography, in 2013.
Andy Couzens
Here are some other videos of events at Luong’s former gallery that was organized by Couzens:
And here is an interview with the would-be artiste courtesy of your friend and mine Michael Lambe of Deep Kyoto fame (he's also a PR man for Einarsen at Kyoto Journal):
Here’s another video taken at Luong’s former gallery space:

As mentioned above, Samuel Andre is almost certainly wither CIA or DGSE.

On his Facebook page he describes himself as living in “Nowhere, Oklahoma” and being from “Rouen, France”:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=530334643&fref=ts

With so many talented artistes about, you wonder how the world could be such a mess. It boggles the mind—what’s left of it...

A few more links on that master of disguise, Chinese Canadian spy, Eric Luong.

Note that while the videos that had been uploaded to the “3F Project Room” Facebook page appear to have been deactivated,
there are a few videos on Youtube, as shown above and below.
Checkout the inane interview with German wannabe artiste, Sebastian Mayer, for example.
Meanwhile, at least the photos are still there:
Some new names I picked up from those include:
Lila Neutre
Ben Pendleton
Mike Wales
Amanda Sunnerholm (I assume "Oh-mandy" is for laughs)
Max Larsson
Ally Mobbs
(connected to Lotman/Zimbleman cohort and suspected MI6 officers Kaily Palmer:
and Ben Pendleton

Meanwhile, I haven't even searched all of the names listed above, and don't intend to due to time constraints and more important things to post. 

Here are some other Facebook pages to former events at Luong’s intelligence agency-front glallery:

Here are a couple of Vimeo links to intelligence officers connected to the faux art scene:

Rowan O’Brien is another faux artiste connected to Eric Luong, Sean Lotman et al. and is yet another suspected G2 intelligence officer (Ireland). He’s active in South Korea as well, and appears to be married to a Korean woman, though that isn’t made public on their Facebook pages—aside from some photos—because they are trying to conceal their identities:

Note that Luong’s suspected CIA cohort Ash Ryan is a collaborator on that project as well.
Rowan provides photos of himself on the following pages, but the video is “private”:
And here’s a remnant from an exhibition Luong hosted that included work by Rowan’s brother, Barry, at the 3F Project Room:
FACES is the name of the current exhibition being held in the 3F Project Room in Kyoto, Japan.
Amongst the line up of talented Japanese and international artists you’ll find work by my own dear brother Barry O’Brien.
