"What do you mean?"
"That guy painted a piece, and I think it's quite interesting."
Uncle Sakai showed some interest. His wife's taste had always been discerning, and for her to say a painting was interesting was no small feat.
"Look at our daughter's INS."
Uncle Sakai opened INS and logged into a smaller account.
The official INS and Twitter accounts of his "Ishikawa Ichiro Studio" are currently operated by Ota Art Gallery.
High-end artists often go to extremes.
Either they completely steer clear of social media, having their accounts managed by agents, or like Verlaine, don't use modern network devices at all.
Or they embrace the social media stream, becoming extremely keen on self-media marketing, eager to post dozens of tweets and various lifestyle photos a day.
Uncle Sakai found it bothersome, so he left it all to an agent.
Ota Art Gallery has a team dedicated to internet marketing for Uncle Sakai, responding to fan messages and whatnot.
