Neocha.com in English on TwitterPosted by Adam J. Schokora, July 30, 2008 7:28 PM
Neocha.com, a social networking site for Chinese musicians, designers, filmmakers, photographers, animators and those interested in Chinese creative communities, has an English language Twitter page. As Neocha's Web site is almost entirely in Chinese, its Twitter page helps non-Chinese language readers sample the site's content without the hassle of reading Chinese. Neocha's "tweets" are simply short descriptions of original Chinese creative content with direct links to the Neocha page housing that content. Some samples: Instrumental track from "A Hidden Trace" and Popil called "百了滋": link Great graphic design by CD designer Will_D: link Summertime illustration from "karenloves": link Clay figurine art & illustrations from Qiuyu (who also is an electronic musician): link Great animation video called "红糖葫芦" from Beijing Film Academy students: link Featured slideshow from photographer Lakita: link For those interested in the latest from the creative space in China, check it out: Neocha's Twitter page. Also, for English language access to Neocha's online database of original Chinese indie music, see this earlier Danwei post. (Full disclosure: Your correspondent is a partner at Neocha.com)

Books on China
Diamond Hill by Feng Chi-shun: Feng's memoir Diamond Hill describes an era of gambling and gangsters, Suzie Wong and squatter villages, fires and food stalls, and the Kowloon Walled City and its white powder. "A time when people were poor, but life was rich," he says. The world that he grew up in no longer exists, but his book - the first ever on the Diamond Hill refugee settlement, in either Chinese or English - offers a candid picture of what life was like for most Hong Kong residents in the 1950s.
William A. Callahan's China: The Pessoptimist Nation: China: The Pessoptimist Nation shows how the heart of Chinese foreign policy is not a security dilemma, but an identity dilemma. Through a careful analysis of how Chinese people understand their new place in the world, the book charts how Chinese identity emerges through the interplay of positive and negative feelings in a dynamic that intertwines China's domestic and international politics.
The WTO ruling: a half victory at best: In August 2009, a World Trade Organization panel ruled against China's system of monopoly control over entertainment products. Was this the victory supporters hailed as the dawn of a new day for American and global entertainment companies in the China market?
