From That's Beijing's weekly email newsletter:

Comrade films
Today and tomorrow, take advantage of a rare opportunity to see all (or most) Chinese films touching on the subject of homosexuality, all shown in one place. Today is Jiaoluo, Nutongzhi Youxing and Hez, Sunday see Donggong Xigong, Lanyu, Jinnian Xiatian and Chunguang Zhaxian. This probably won’t happen again, so get in on it. Showings start at 3pm Saturday and Sunday.

Venue: Trainspotting (8471 2553)

Classic Danwei posts

+ Online video tainted by spoofs (2006.08): Translation from Qiu Ao, and bits from the Legal Mirror about the SARFT regulations on personal internet video.

+ Lip-Service: Lip-Synching in Chinese Pop Music by David Moser (2005.03): When we showed up at the studio for the taping, we discovered that there was no microphone for our singer, no recording equipment or hookups for our amplifiers, and not even any electrical outlets on the stage. "How are we supposed to do our number?" I asked the studio crew. They looked at us incredulously. "You actually want to sing the song live?" they said

+ Asimov Published, Interviewed in Beijing (2005.03): Cover story from this week's Book Review section of The Beijing News announces the publication of a Chinese translation of Isaac Asimov's complete Foundation series. Yup, the Beijing News has scored a fictional interview with "I, Asimov". They've been taking similar liberties recently in their entertainment sections, captioning photographs of celebrities with made-up quotes.
