Tokyo IRTBBC responds to Hajime Ishii’s 2011 proposal for a new backup city for Tokyo in the event of a natural disaster. Under Ishii’s ‘NEMIC Initiative’ the project, located in Osaka, would also introduce American style gambling resorts to Japan which are currently illegal.

Our alternative vision for NEMIC is inspired by Japan’s gambling (and religious) culture of ‘tokens’ and the aesthetics of arcade ‘Medal Games.’ Gamifying the urban realm itself, a series of ‘medals’ would be designed as mixed use structures encapsulating the mania of Tokyo, using symbolic gestures as an economic generator for new types of space.

 东京IRTBBC响应了石井一（日本商业代表团领袖）2011年提出的在自然灾害发生后为东京建立一个新的后备城市的建议。在石井“NEMIC Initiative”项目中，也像我们展示了在大阪一个有着举行非法美式赌博的地方。

  我们对NEMIC的设想是受日本式的赌博(和宗教的)文化的“代币”和“电子游戏”的启发。在城市本身加入了游戏的元素，一系列的“奖牌”将被设计成混合结构去使用，将东京的狂热包围起来，用象象征语码作为新型空间的经济发动机。
