UP!
Not unlike the new film “UP” …Here’s the traditional Japanese answer.
What you are looking at is an odd twist to “Tanabata“ the Japanese star festival (ripped off from the Chinese star festival, Qi X) when Japanese write their wishes, sometimes in the form of poetry, on “tanzaku”, small pieces of paper, and hang them on large displays of bamboo fronds. The bamboo and decorations are often set afloat on a river or burned after the festival, but in this case they get UP.
