Composer. Inventor! Patent attorney I? School director? ? ! Musician Kota Ogawa

作曲家。発明家!弁理士I?学園理事??!ミュージシャン・小川コータ

Hello, my name is Fumika Mabuchi.

This time, I would like to continue to introduce Kota Ogawa.
As I introduced last time, he is a musician who moved to Kamakura over 10 years ago and is active locally.
In his private life, Kota is married and the father of two children.

She seems to be having fun going to the beach and other places with her children.
Furthermore, at his previous home, he built a tree house in the garden with the help of neighbors and friends.
There are swings and a slide there.

Click here for an article on how to make a treehouse ( ``A story about how I made a treehouse out of driftwood. You can make one too!'' ).

I'm so jealous of such an active dad! !
Mr. Kota actually has a different side to him.
When I look at my SNS profile...

Inventor! ?
Composer. Yes, that's right.

patent attorney! ! ?
School director! ! ! ?
Great-grandson of NEC founder! ! ! ! ?
musician. Yeah, yeah, that's right.

The president of a corporation is the president! ! ! ! ?

Eh, Kota-san? ?
How many pairs of straw sandals do you wear? ! ! ?

After I met him, I only knew him as a musician, so when I found out this, I was confused.

Moreover, he is the person who invented the "flick input" that many people are probably using today.
I was really surprised because I had used it myself, or rather, I loved it and thought it was convenient.
The story behind the invention of flick input has been summarized in a note ( ``Secret Story of the Invention of Flick Input'' ), so be sure to read it.

In 2021, we launched Edison Lab Co., Ltd. , and have released several products to the world so far.

・When waiting for waves
・When washing dishes
・When taking a bath

It's times like this that ideas come to me.

``But when an idea comes to me, I'm usually in an environment where I can't use my smartphone right away, so I often forget about it,'' says Kota.

I definitely get ideas when I'm near water.
Does that mean that there are a lot of ideas that have been born but have not yet taken shape? ?

I can't help but worry about the ideas that haven't materialized yet, but I'm waiting for them to come to me as ideas again, and the ones that have already become products are on sale on Amazon .

And, for more information about another interesting position, ``school director,'' see this article (``Why we created Shonan Hokulea Academy'').

Mr. Kota already has a lot going on, but is there anything new you would like to try? When I asked him,
``My friend and family are traveling around the world in a camper van, so I admire them.''

Amazing, active all the way!
I want you to share your activeness, even if it's only for a little bit.

Kota-san's musician unit ``Ogawa Kota & Tomason'' is scheduled to perform live at Enoshima's ``Toramaruza'' on May 14th, so be sure to check it out on their official website!
