HuaHui, Ustad H. Sayeeduddin DAGAR Râg Bhopali, The Experiment, role play, performance


4 cubes today.

Listened to a concert on Youtube Indian chants - Ustad H. Sayeeduddin DAGAR Râg Bhopali - it takes 20mn of slow soft chanting and gradually it builds up to a "pea bursting" speed. Registered in France at a chateaux. Whole performance was approx 36mn.

Watched a talk by the Prof who did the Stanford Prison Experiment. He had a "fu man chu type of mustache". ( Who prefer moustache of this style? ) I saw the movie based on the real life experiment. How can you account for such an experiment? Even the conception of the "realistic" details, like the phony arrests... all this is so cruel. How can you not think that this is not "just an experiment" right from the start? Would it have been possible to test what he wanted without going through all this?

Another talk was rather humourous by somebody who did "pain" investigation, but he did it starting from his own skin burnt experience. This seem to be more responsible and more admirable as a research - because he used himself first and not take risks at other peoples expenses.

I think its not right to experiment using others when it involves unknown scales of sufferings - even if they give consent as in the case of the Stanford students - but the second guy gave electro shock to his samples... hmmm. Anyway the conclusion is, if anonymity prevails people can and do become a lot more cruel without any moral consideration. They had thought maybe only 1% of the people would be cruel - behave like Hitler - but it turns out to be 90%, if the action has no consequences to themselves when their name is undisclosed.

I was looking at "role play" - would people perform to a role specification? How much would they do to build up to the role playing?

The film I saw was a BBC documentary collaboration between Exeter University and BBC, "The Experiment" docu is not the Stanford experiment. This time, the prison and guards were also recrutied and tested psychologically, while the film was going on, (film=experiment) there was a team of doctors and professors making sure that no psychological harm comes to the participants. The experiment also ended earlier than planned.

I checked, the film I saw was not the BBC docu, it was Das Experiment a 2001 German film directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel. Also terrible to watch.

Surprise! Not only the Americans made the original experiment, the Germans made a movie, and the BBC did a documentary-reality tv with University research backing; another remake is starting in July 09, tomorrow!! remake of the Das Experiment! Why is this subject so good to re-do over and over again?

HuaHui coming up, underlying structure.

more air when the cubes are intercut w a void



BD Haiku said, this is a forteress, here the captain and the horsewoman, they do what they like here. I said, which of the two is a man and which is a woman. He said both are women, but women can do whatever they like.

I said, these cubes look so hard, and rough and like mediaeval armours... but I think it could look soft later, depends on how the whole is attached together. Which is the binding system that I will use?

I want to make a tensegrity structure, like soft without any hard structures inside. I think there is a way. Its the underlying puzzle, the mainframe that I want to solve now.

I often want to get the little pieces together first and then decide what is the best unifying element? What are these little pieces all about?

We say once the big structure is determined, you really cant change much. But on the other hand what about little pieces, if you have all these little pieces, can you make of them anyway you want? I just want to be surprised by myself.

Often, when you finally got it all together, you are so happy, you are so surprised that it all fit together... that is the difference between architecture and sculpture for me. I keep on wanting to change things all the time. In architecture you cant afford to do that. Your boss will kill you.

The boss = the guy who controls the purse string.

Qin land



Ideally, in Qin land, people should be elegant - does not mean pretty clothes; all flashy - but free and open minded and spontaneous. Like Li Pos poems.

I looked at the Shosoin qin again, why not make an ornate Qin ? Nobody makes ornate Qins these day due to the drift of "QingWeiDanYuan" school of thought.

I think in Tang Dynasty, the music is unlikely to be "QingWeiDanYuan". :)

Girls plump and walk around on the streets in low cut dresses, horses with powerful behinds and legs like that, Qins with power and full fleshed forms. And that Li Po and all those poets, what could the Qin music be like at those times?

Jim Binkley - Little Old Qin maker, 王悠荻 Guqin Compeititon first prize May09, On the road, Nice day

Little Old Qin maker, Jim Binkley - I am very impressed with his set up! Wow must go visit him on occasion.

I designed and made two original style of qin.
The Half Hundun and the Big Handscroll, both embryos were made at a Beijing Qin masters atelier, his name is TIAN Shuang Kun 田双昆 , one of the four student of Guan PingHu. I designed the qins using foam core, a scale 1:10 (if I remember correctly)The model was about 10inches long.

The lacquer + deerhorn powder coating was put on under the instruction of ZHENG MingZhong, the palace museum specialist.

While I was visiting him at his home, I saw he had lots of rescued qins on the wall. And I liked one of them very much, which was unpolished, the lacquer was in rough cheese clot state (but black color). The sound was really gd, makes no difference polished or not, he said.

So I asked if he could teach me how to make a qin, he said yes. So I designed 5 models, out of the 5, we picked out two. (Since you have to wait around for each coating to dry, making one or two needs the same block of time; so i decided to make two qins)

He gave some comments to which one is better sounding, there was one more round belly version I thought it would sound really good - acoustically speaking it would ressemble african tree drums - but in miniature - i thought. He said, it would take too much material, would be expensive, cost twice as much, so better use the more standard bodies. The wood is from 100 year old "shan" wood.

So I picked out my two favorite models and had them made to full size and put on the lacquer myself, but it took 2 years before I finish because I didnt have time to polish etc. Finally its finished. Am so happy. It remains to be one of my happiest "oeuvre" in the ensemble of Digital Guqin + Qin culture research. I adapted my tuning pegs from some very sturdy plexiglass tubes. Even though I have purchased two full sets of wood and tassels. I decided I like them transparent with tiny handmade short silky tassels and not the big candle like typical long strands.

琴缘 琴音 琴德——记故宫博物院文物鉴定专家郑珉中先生

琴缘 琴音 琴德——记故宫博物院文物鉴定专家郑珉中先生

转自第十期《鉴宝》杂志

2003年,中国古琴乐曲被联合国教科文组织列为“人类口头和非物资文化遗产”后,社会上学习古琴的热情大幅升温,但深谙古琴真昧的名家却如凤毛麟角,故宫博物院文物鉴定专家郑珉中先生即为此道高士。小时候,家中悬一幅《红梅图》,所画之梅繁中有简、简中有繁、繁而不乱、简而有理。当时只知此画是郑珉中先生送给父亲的,以为他是一位著名画家,后来父亲告诉我,“郑先生不仅抚琴、修琴,对古琴鉴赏的造诣极深,又工书善画,可是故宫博物院一位博学多艺的专家呢!”
郑珉中先生原籍福建闽侯,寄籍四川华阳,1923年生于北京旧知识分子家庭。求学之时醉心于书画古琴,幼年临习汉魏碑帖。1937至1939年,先后师从北京林彦博、丹阳汪蔼士学绘画,从王杏东、李浴星学古琴。1940年,拜著名古琴家管平湖为师,就学四年,得管氏弹琴、鉴琴、修琴的琴学心得。1947年秋拜溥雪斋为师学习绘画。1946年秋,入北京故宫博物院工作,长期从事文物陈列与研究,曾任陈列组、历代艺术组、法书铭刻组、绘画组、铜器组、金石组、工艺组组长。1953年、1961年他将家藏的瓷器57件、印章20件,捐献给故宫博物院。1982年后,重点从事古琴、古砚的研究,在古琴、书法、绘画领域发表有专题学术论文三十余篇,参加过国内外学术研讨会。郑珉中先生现任国家文物鉴定委员会委员、故宫博物院研究馆员、故宫博物院学术委员会委员,中国博物馆协会会员、中国书法家协会会员、曾任北京古琴研究会副会长,享受政府特殊津贴。
郑珉中先生曾跟随三位老师学琴,第一位是山东诸城派的王杏东,第二位是九襄派的李浴星,那是在1940年,正值沦陷时期,北京古琴会已停止活动,许多琴家去了南方。于是,北京琴友们周日常到管平湖家聚会。李浴星就把郑先生介绍过来,管先生当时就教他弹琴,将散场时对郑先生说:“你要学,我可以教你。但有个条件,从现在起,三个月之内不要弹琴,把原来的全忘掉。这三个月中,每周到这儿来两次看我弹琴,听我教琴,听满三个月,我给你上课。”
三个月后,郑珉中跟管先生学了《静观吟》、《良宵引》、《平沙落雁》。管先生教学有个特点,就是学生弹一支曲子,一直要弹到跟老师的程度差不多了,才另教新曲。管先生非常耐心,手把手地教弹、示范,郑先生这样跟管先生学了四年。管先生对他也给予厚望,希望他能把自己的琴艺继承下来。郑先生对笔者说:“有琴友觉得我弹的琴和管平湖先生一样,这都得益于管先生的造就,因为他教的时候,弹得不像,管先生就不教新曲子,所以直到现在,我弹的《良宵引》和《平沙落雁》两首曲,还与管先生弹得很像呢!”
1946年郑先生父亲去世,同年10月1日,他进入故宫负责建筑,由于生活变故,他家的房子也卖了,郑先生搬进了故宫东连房宿舍(故宫外景山前街)。下班后,同事们都在打牌,他就每天晚饭后,把学琴以来老师教的曲子从头到尾温习一遍,每曲弹三遍,一直坚持到1953年。1947年,管平湖先生与张伯驹、王世襄、溥雪斋、杨葆之和郑珉中等人,创办了“北平琴学社”(1954年改称“北京古琴研究会”)。建国后,南方今虞琴社的查阜西先生组织了北京古琴会,郑先生也是会员。那时,他每天热衷于练琴,学过的古曲都抚得很娴熟,并常常参加各地的演出活动。在中国传统文人眼中,古琴有君子之德,“众器之中,琴德最优”,与“君子比德于玉”的观念一致。王世襄先生的夫人袁荃猷与王迪、郑珉中,皆为古琴大师管平湖的同门弟子。如今,管先生的学生多已仙逝,仅有郑先生一人了。
郑珉中先生和蔼谦逊,拜访他时一直在说,自己只是一名普通的文物工作者,没什么可谈的。先生号“南郭琴叟”,自言不过是琴界中充数一老叟耳!为了全心投入文物研究工作,他曾在相当长的时期内,搁置了古琴演奏。建国后,他被调到文献馆,1951年陈列部成立,郑先生就被从文献馆调到了陈列部。当时历代馆陈列里有唐琴两张、宋琴两张、元琴一张,都是郑先生布展的。唐琴“大圣遗音”,是当年清室善后委员会检查时,发现在墙旮旯儿戳着,屋里漏雨,雨水把琴浸得像个泥壳,岳山也掉了一半,当时定为破琴一张。建国后,王世襄先生在南库发现了它。只在上面擦了一把,就露出漆来了。仔细一看,就是唐琴“大圣遗音”,郑先生就请管平湖先生把这张名琴修好了。包括“大圣遗音”在内,故宫还有唐琴四张,其余各时代古琴四十多张。与琴有关的文物有珍贵的琴谱,明清家具中的琴桌,宋锦的琴套,工艺品的琴模型,另有各式观赏琴铜琴、铁琴、石琴等。
在陈列部时,他曾跟随王世襄、朱家溍二位先生从事文物陈列工作,1952年后负责文物陈列,以及陶瓷馆、绘画馆、历代艺术馆的现场布展及其他陈列工作。1953年中央文化部组织了全国音乐周,郑先生与同道琴友们在各地巡演了两个星期后,回到故宫陈列部上班。这时陈列部主任唐兰先生对他说:“这个琴不放弃不行啊。我们陈列部白天干的都是体力活,只有晚上才有时间学习业务!”郑先生觉得唐先生的话在理,就放弃了晚上弹琴,潜心钻研业务了。从1953年起就不再弹琴,也不去琴社学琴了。文革之后,老一代琴家多已离世,音协组织古琴活动时找到郑先生,当时他弹过的许多曲子也忘了,于是加紧练习,又找回了《平沙落雁》、《良宵引》、《归去来辞》等几个曲子。
听到郑先生说,40年悠悠岁月中,未曾演奏古琴,我不禁感叹:“那多可惜呀!”他笑道:“不可惜呀!2003年,中国的古琴乐曲被联合国教科文组织列为‘人类口头和非物资文化遗产’,古琴乐曲要想继续流传下去,不但要有人演奏,也得有人研究。我搞古代琴的鉴定,研究它们的特点和制作方法,有助于当代斫琴师做出更多好琴,当代的好琴多了,琴家们就能弹奏出韵味地道的古曲,这种古代音乐不就传承下来了嘛?虽说我不再参加演奏,但古琴研究工作也是很有意义的。”
20世纪50年代中期,他曾到中央美术学院美术史系旁听王逊先生 “中国美术史”课程,此时在唐兰先生领导下完成了“历代艺术综合陈列”,建成了“历代艺术馆”,并每年改陈一次。为了改陈工作的顺利开展,郑先生又到中央美术学院旁听金维诺先生讲的“中国美术史”、阎文儒先生的“中国雕塑史”,学习后,他马上将所学知识运用到改陈工作中来,在布展中,注意展示不同历史时代的风格特点,促进了工作创新。这时故宫博物院收购的文物较多,他与其他专家一起鉴定这些东西,辨真伪,定去留,成为他此时日常工作的内容之一。
20世纪70年代,郑珉中先生开始对古琴作进一步的研究。在学习和研究过程中,他对一些传统的鉴定方法提出了质疑,找到了科学的鉴定方法。经过大量艰苦工作之后,郑珉中先生第一次提出用标准器鉴定古琴的方法,并以私人收藏的几张古琴和故宫博物院所藏的四张唐琴为例,写出了文物界第一篇关于鉴定唐琴真伪的文章——《论唐琴的特点及其真伪的问题》。在该文中,郑珉中先生明确指出唐琴具备的特点,列举了标准器,提出唐琴制作的风格、漆质断纹、音韵木质、腹款铭刻及其分期问题;论述了唐代雷氏琴制作的时期及作者,取材及工艺特点,音韵及传世雷琴;并提出旧琴后加腹款、琴款同时伪作与改变形制冒充古琴的几种作伪方法。郑先生指出,“大圣遗音”是中唐标准器;“飞泉”、“独幽”是晚唐标准器;“九霄环佩”是盛唐标准器,带四字腹款者为宫琴。此文的发表,澄清了古琴鉴定上的许多疑点、难点,成为古琴鉴定者的必读教材,同时奠定了郑珉中先生作为古琴鉴定家的权威地位。
郑先生经过多年钻研,总结出一套有效的古琴鉴定方法,推翻了一些以前确认的错误结论。1999年7月,天津国际拍卖公司拍卖过一件流传有绪的北宋年间古琴。这张名为“清角遗音”的古琴,原系古琴收藏家程子容先生旧藏,为程老先生生前自用,仲尼式,长129厘米,肩宽24厘米,尾宽19厘米,粟壳色漆,蛇腹,牛毛断纹,七弦十三玉徽,硬木轸足,背面龙池内题楷书“清角遗音大唐神龙二年制”。程子容是古琴大师管平湖先生弟子,收藏多种古琴。程先生1980年曾向国家捐赠唐代“飞泉”古琴,现藏北京故宫博物院,成为中国唐代四大名琴之一。郑珉中先生将这件“大唐神龙二年制”清角遗音琴,定为宋琴中的传世精品,一级文物。
另一件私人藏宋代 “尧夫”琴,也是经他之手鉴定出来的。“尧夫”即邵雍,北宋哲学家,字尧夫。因隐居苏门山,后人称其为百源先生,卒谥康节。其才学为后世学者所崇仰。此琴虽不能肯定是邵康节先生所制,但琴上款字由他亲笔所书,可知是其监制无疑。如此名贤法物,在传世古琴中极为罕见。此琴仲尼式,通体髹黑漆,光洁如新,琴身发蛇腹断纹,微起剑峰,通长122.5厘米,肩宽19.2厘米,尾宽13.7厘米,琴额饰椭圆形白玉一块,小头、直顶、垂肩,造型优美。琴面圆厚,颇有形如筒瓦之势。琴背开长方形龙池凤沼,龙池略微偏上,俱为枣木原装,周边棱色一致,腹内纳音殊不明显。钢弦,音雄浑,响钟磬之声。 腹款为“庆历元年尧夫制”。琴棋书画,琴为第一,可见古人对琴的钟爱程度,古琴不易保存,留存至今明以上的古琴十分少见。特别是品相完好,又有名士款的古琴,更是凤毛麟角。郑珉中先生以八字描述此琴:旷世名琴,弥足珍贵。
由于找到了科学的鉴定方法,加之近半个世纪文物工作的经历和高超的古琴演奏水平,郑先生对一些古琴文物重新进行了鉴定。他对中日两国文博界早有定论的“金银平文”琴进行了重新鉴定,推翻了该琴原产我国,后流入日本的结论,在两国文博界引起震动。日方此前一直认为,该琴是从我国传至东瀛的,我国文物界也持此种观点。但郑先生认为,该琴是日本人仿制的中国琴,即真正的日本琴。他发表了数千字的长文,阐述自己的观点。此文一出,先是引起了轰动,继而得到学术界的认可。我国虽然因此“少”了一宝,但还原出了“金银平文”琴的真面目,也是中日两国文博界的一项收获。

琴音与琴德
谈到琴音,郑先生说,古琴音声深沉、浑厚、结实,有古朴、苍茫的神韵。琴的音色,根据弹法不同,可分为三大类,即:泛音、散音、按音。这三种琴音,风格迥异,各有千秋。与中国文化的天、地、人相配。所谓泛音,即左手触弦如蜻蜓点水,右手同时弹出之音。“泠、泠”如天籁之音,清脆高远,若隐若现,轻盈活泼,有“浮云柳絮无根蒂”之喻;以七徽为中心,向两侧依次对应升高,约可弹出泛音119个。泛音应用频繁,是古琴演奏的一大特点。散音是左手不按弦,仅以右手弹出“嘣嘣”的空弦音。特点是深沉浑厚,如大地般坚实,有“勇士赴战场”之喻;按音是左手按弦,右手同时弹出之音。特点是婉转抒情,圆润细腻,如人婉婉倾诉衷情,有“呢呢儿女语”之喻。琴的按音最多,加之左手指法丰富细腻,是琴最具表现力之音。
好琴之音具备众多优点,低音浑厚,高音具金石之声,声音松透圆润,没有杂音。琴曲重在直透人心,认定好琴的标准,往往依其音韵,重其表现力,一般对其音量放在第二位。这也表现出古琴对音质要求的严格,审美格调的高雅。因此琴界的先师们,总结出琴的九德之说。即理想的上乘好琴,应具备九条标准:奇(指琴的材质与音色皆轻松脆滑)、古(指琴音淳和淡雅,有金石韵律)、透(指琴发音清亮绵远而不咽塞)、静(指琴音纯净,没有杂音)、润(指琴发声不燥,韵长不绝,清远幽静)、圆(指琴声浑然不散)、清(指琴声如金石,如风中铃铎)、匀(指琴七弦俱清圆,均匀平衡,无三实四虚之病)、芳(指琴弹之愈久而声愈出)。当然,象雷威所斫的“春雷”、“九霄环佩”那样九德兼优之琴,乃罕见珍品。通常来说,能具备诸德的琴就算好琴了。
言及琴门诸派,郑先生说,我从学琴时起,管平湖先生就对我说,不要在外面评论古琴门派的高下,各门各派都有自己的特色和韵味。“三人行,必有吾师焉。择其善者而从之,其不善者而改之。”要多多向别人学习。现在学琴有音乐学院了,用的教材差不多,弹出的韵味也差不多;我们那时候都是投师学琴,不同的老师对古琴的理解不同,教出来的学生就形成了所谓的门派。古琴的门派犹如各地的美味珍馐,苏州喜甜,湖南嗜辣,四川又好麻辣,各地都有好饭馆、好厨师,各有各的风味特点,那么古琴又岂能以门派而论高下呢?”
鉴古观今
郑先生说,古琴鉴定的本事最早还是从管先生那里学来的,那时北京修琴的人很少,如果古琴有了毛病多是找老师去修,所以管先生屋里挂满了琴,郑先生就把它们一个个摘下来看。管先生就指着汪孟舒的唐琴告诉他,这张琴起断纹了,断纹起的峰太高就无法弹了,继而为他讲述唐琴的特点。学琴时,郑先生从老师那里学到不少修古琴、鉴定古琴的知识。那时弹琴的人都希望有个好乐器,能看到唐琴就很羡慕,他就是这样开始学习古琴鉴定的。当时郑先生看到太老师早期写的书中记述,北京的唐琴有两张,一是“九霄环佩”,二是“鹤鸣秋月’。但几年后,又著书称,唐琴并不罕见。所写《藏琴录》中言道:现在“唐琴多矣。”郑先生发现,太老师是根据声音和木料判别的,将声音好、木料古的琴都定成唐琴。不过书中提到的“至德丙申”的“大圣遗音”、“太和丁未”的“独幽”、“贞观二年”的“飞泉”皆鸿宝也。郑先生经过研究,将这三张琴确定为唐琴标准器,但仅以琴音和木料对古琴进行断代的提法,郑先生是不认同的。他的观点是琴音好坏不分年代,古琴的声音有的做出来时就不好,也有的是保存不得法使声音不好。但是音色美的琴,各时代都有。木料也靠不住,五代时就已经用旧木料做琴了。认识事物不能搞绝对化,某些古琴现在定了年代,没准后人又找到了新资料,又有了更确凿的证据就能推翻现在下的结论了,研究学问要有追求真理的精神。
追溯古琴鉴定学之渊源,郑先生说,宋代好古之风兴盛,有牟利之徒因而作伪欺世。随着伪品的出现,鉴定家也产生了。最早鉴别唐琴伪品的实例,是南宋岳坷在李奉宁家鉴定一张名为“冰清”的伪琴,指出其腹款所书唐代年号有避宋帝名讳的问题,依此判定这张琴虽然断纹很古,却是一件伪品。鉴定古琴之学从南宋时已开始,宋元明人也留下许多记述,但直至清初,古琴家才提出“唐圆宋扁”的形制区别。民国初年,杨宗稷著《琴学丛书》,才较深入地阐述了鉴定古琴之学,并刊行于世,为发展古琴鉴定学提供了重要资料。可以说,杨宗稷是古琴鉴定学说的奠基者。
古琴鉴定学除见诸文字者外,旧时在古琴断代上着眼于款字题跋、形制断纹、漆色木质、声音优劣等,且仅凭其中两三点就作定论,这种方法易造成鉴定误差。以李伯仁旧藏的“独幽”琴为例,它有“太和丁未”四字腹款,池下有“玉振”印,尾托上刻李伯仁的题识,记述了它的流传和杨宗稷的题句,明确它是晚唐文宗元年的作品。其造型为罕见的“子期式”,断纹为蛇腹间牛毛纹,栗壳色漆,木质、声音均古。根据这些特点,将其定为唐琴无误,可谓一件鸿宝。再如诗梦斋旧藏“九霄环佩”琴,背有“包含”二字大印,伏羲式造型,小蛇腹断纹,栗壳色漆,木质、声音均古,为唐琴。但不能认为琴背上有黄庭坚、苏轼的题句,就肯定它曾经北宋苏、黄二人鉴赏过,因为这些是后人伪刻的。又如查阜西旧藏的雷威款“幽涧泉”琴,原为大兴冯恕所藏,其子大生曾学琴于黄勉之之门,因而雷公琴幽涧泉遂为当时琴家所称道。琴为仲尼式,较常琴略短,琴面弧度较圆,有“雷威制”三字腹款,通身发波浪纹间梅花断,漆下有葛布地,桐材甚古,发音雄宏松润,为阜西先生藏琴之冠。先生终日弦歌未尝暂离,巡回演出亦携以相随,见者咸称赏此雷公琴不已。先生返京后因琴两侧腰合处开裂,惧其损坏,因付蕉叶山房张莲舫为之修合,修毕原音俱逝,成为一张按音不入木的哑琴。数年后乃赠与溥雪斋先生,遂重新为之剖修,得见腹内项间有墨书四行腹款:“崇祯甲戌夏日,绣谷刘师桐,仿唐雷威制于琴川松弦馆”22字。这张长期被视为雷公琴的“幽涧泉”至此真相大白,它原来是明末制品。可见,仅凭形式、款字、木质、断纹、声音和传说鉴定传世古琴,可能出现失误。郑先生发现这些问题以后,就开始了对古琴进行深入的研究,并找到了用标准器鉴定古琴等科学方法。





A report of a recent guqin concert in Xiamen - as a sample of a common "yaji" concerts by blogger 黄绍坚.
The writer is very critical of what he saw, almost zero good things in the guqin event - from clothing to performance to musicality to almost everything including the dark black shades one of the player wore. If what he reported is true - and I could imagine it could be say 85% true (because most people see 80% of a general aspect of things, and it takes a huge amount of effort to see the rest of the 20% if the event is not all bad - the difference between reporting what you see, and finding something worthy to report about is in the detail 20%. 黄绍坚has a photo of the concert hall - looks nice, wood paneling, container-hardware is good! - what he described is the content-people-software not up to expectation worthy of the name of yaji.

His blog is interesting because its the 80% "public" report of a yaji. Was there any left over 20% creme de la creme in it? This will need work on the reporter side.
But the blogger quoted a poem, it is written in a simple language, but is a very good contemporary Chinese poem. It truly expresses the ambiance of contemporary China, the common dream of youths. His comments about the poetic improvisation of LXT is apt. We might be able to improvise a poem on the fly, but is it a great poem that is another question. :)

Here is the quoted original poem that I like to share with readers : (for LXT's on the fly verse, please read the original blog for that.)

那首表面温暖、内心绝望的原诗:by : 海子

“从明天起,做一个幸福的人/喂马,劈柴,周游世界/从明天起,关心粮食和蔬菜/我有一所房子,面朝大海,春暖花开//从明天起,和每一个亲人通信/告诉他们我的幸福/那幸福的闪电告诉我的/我将告诉每一个人//给每一条河每一座山取一个温暖的名字/陌生人,我也为你祝福/愿你有一个灿烂的前程/愿你有情人终成眷属/愿你在尘世获得幸福/我也愿面朝大海,春暖花开。”

How many times you go shopping - I mean truly shopping - looking for something new, that is viewing without a target in mind and not the picking-up-items off a specific list shopping - and come back with one or more finds? Sometimes none. Thats because you did not find that unexpected dream target, the 20% beyond worthy of purchase.

This is the same with events when a large hugely populated country is in great change and movement. You will see lots of milk and little cream.
We must not be so harsh as we dont know the detail constraints of each event, you need everybody doing a lot first, then you sort afterwards. We will not get the 5%cream without the rest of the 95% of milk.

Same with finding Guqin schools, teachers, lessons, so much available, which one is the right one, suitable and worthy of your time?

All programs must be verified with phone calls, web pages might not be current:

Qin music, culture for all; titles

On the one hand we have Qin music and culture available for all, on the other hand, a lot of musicians I met seem to be quite aware of a "self imposed noblesse".
I found a Qin group on Facebook, the people are really open. Am happy to see them, and just hang around to see what are they up to?

All books of QinPu's downloadable here.

I downloaded the books - just looking at the repertoire, this is enough for anyone to do in many life times!

Please look at the following as a picture, a graphic picture and imagine, each piece say lasts 5mn. How many 5 mns do you have if you string them together, end to end?
And if each 5 mn piece, say takes one day to memorise, (for a very quick, genius grade learner) How much time would it take to learn all of them?

The story goes, some people only need to play one tune in their life time, they play one tune and play it very well. :)

Some people also plays a stringless Qin; no need for strings! Music is in the heart.

I like the list of names of pieces, so here they are:

Think of this as a long cloth of ... graphics, and each graphics sings a 5mn piece.

Jumping links, 6 degrees of separation, HomeShop, bought a Stone Tree Castle

Bought a Stone Tree Castle, for playing the guqin in sl, I had made an atelier, a transformation of an existing freebie house. Took a lot of time.
Now I found this Stone Tree Castle, its also based on a freebie Lighthouse - but I have no time to do major renovation. So for now, I just bought one ready made to do some interior work for now. Until further notice. I would like to have scripts to make the vine curtains grow though, maybe change colors too. :)

How do we go from one point to another, what are the links, like jumping-Chinese checkers game? How many steps do you need to get from point A to point B? And if you didnt decide ahead of time where point B is? There is a theory that nobody is separated from anybody else by 6 steps: 6 degrees of separation.

How did I find an interesting person? Starting from an interesting picture.
1/ I saw this profile pic, cute old person => click, here it is He YingYa - HomeShop
This picture is so cute, old people in Beijing. A lot of old Chinese people are so adorable.
2/ He YingYa wrote to me => because of Secondlife, Digital Guqin
3/ Found => Elaine Ho linked to HomeShop - Artist Elaine Ho, HomeShop work in Beijing.
What next?
4/ Mr.Tong of Tang Fu
5/ Cinema expert from Vienna

Secret Target: Who ends up here?

8/ Eva, former student; now assistant of Jia ZhengKe

Qin teaching

Other Qin teaching set ups as follows:

Class room situation,
two rows of seats, 10 per class. Teacher explains, using text book, student plays. Each student performs the exercise as per teacher instruction. Some details about the phrasing, musicality of why this must be played like this or that.

One on one situation.
Teacher demonstrates phrase by phrase, note by note, student repeats. Memory work.
Student seats opposite teacher. 45mn

One on one situation
Teacher shows notes and exercise sheet, techniques are used. Plucking, thumb, middle finger etc. wrist position versus the surface of the qin - to not strain the wrist over a long period of time. Listening - how each sound is projected from the instrument if flesh on thumb or finger drag too much on string or not...

Stephen C. Walker guqin player, learning Guqin

Stephen C.Walker has several sites on the guqin, very eloquent. I learnt that 3 of his sites are blocked in China. Curious. One of them is so attractive, expressive on Liu ShaoChun - Master Player from Nanjing, grandfather of a friend. These are very bright writings crossing Chinese, Non-Chinese boundaries with Medieval music sources too, and videos of his playing - how convincing is a qin scholar who only talk and not play? (many play but only for themselves, see quote below *) His background is solid with musical training at an early age, and from his texts he probably attacks all his interests fully - he calls "plumbing" - :)

Swann reproduces here, his quote on his welcome page, which expresses the essence of the guqin.


琴之為物, 乃聖人治世之音, 修身養性之器。
"The sage-kings used its tone to order the world. It is the tool for cultivating character and nourishing the fundamental nature. Such is the qin."

余嘗謂彈琴與人聽, 固不足言; 彈琴及同志小集, 僅供研究, 亦不足言; 彈琴至我彈與我聽, 庶乎可言矣。然仍不如我雖彈我並不聽, 手揮目送, 純任自然, 隨氣流轉, 不自知其然而然, 斯臻化境矣, 斯可言琴矣。然此亦僅可與知者道耳。


"I have said before that playing the qin for others to hear is hardly worth speaking about. Playing it at small gatherings of the like-minded only provides for discussion and conferral, and is likewise not worth speaking about. Playing while I alone listen is almost worth speaking about, but it is not equal to playing without listening. My hands and thoughts move effortlessly together; in purity I rely on the spontaneous, following the circling flows of the cosmic breath; I know not that I am so but am simply so—such is to reach the realm of transformation, and this alone can be called the qin. It can be spoken about only with those who truly understand."



- Zhang Ziqian 張子謙 (1899-1991)


*I totally agree with the essence of the message, however, this is at a very high level of achievement, we are talking about someone doing soliloguy with himself through the qin.

For other players, we need a huge amount of playing in group and outside of group situations to raise the level (of any art). You must have mutual learning opportunities, but not only group situations, but also a lot of time by yourself. You only have to see a general level of any art in any community.

Take a very banal example, cooking is generally good everywhere in Hong Kong - whereas not so sure in a lost town in the middle of a desert somewhere in a vaste country (this includes China). Simply because, you have no competition and no parallel samples.

Coming back to the basic question, is it better to learn guqin in a group - which group? or under a single teacher? As Christopher E says, Swann must first find out why she wants to learn the Guqin in the first place and then decide.

Facebook and sl, Guqin,

Swann has to look hard to find guqin people to come into sl.
She has to look hard to find guqin people.
So, she went to FaceBook, and surprise! Almost everybody is there! They are in Facebook!

What is facebook? And how is facebook as a people network different from sl?
Taka from sl has defected to facebook a few months ago, he puts up beaufitul flower photos. :)

Interesting discussions, links, rl contacts, Facebook is like a text and image rl telephone, whereas sl is telephone plus 3D visual stimulus minus graphic text and image, plus theatrical play. sl could role playing with much imagination!

Take for example:
A friend from sl asked me to see him in his new nude self. He also wants to test some animation balls to see if they work! Could I please test it with him?

In Facebook, I think this kind of immersive imagination play does not come about so naturally.

But the Facebook network interchanges is not in real time, its message pause, message pause. Unless you are chatting - there is a time delay function. Its not pressing, so you have no urgency to answer immediately, no need to hang around to see whats happening next? In sl, it is as if you are living a parallel real life.

Many people are on both.
Their uses are different.

Money Graveyard, Eifachfilm Vacirca

Odyssey Art and Performance Sim

Here are reproductions of real life art - for example Beuys installations - but what is the meaning of installing someone elses work in sl? It must be interesting for some visitors I guess.

My interest is to see an idea come true - in sl - in rl... On the other hand, regarding Beuys idea, his installation is fine enough to express in sl, if it didnt already exist in rl, I think there is no need to do it in rl, I would say - so much waste of good trees. :)

Here below is a money graveyard. Imaginary Money Graveyard by http://d-oo-b.cc,
Eifachfilm Vacirca.

Money bills are soft, cant stand upright like this in sl, and if its reproduced in rigid panels in rl, it is not the same. This is an idea perfect for an sl installation. Graphically and conceptually it works.

Apparently, somebody started learning the guqin without a human teacher, but via the above site.

Wu ZiYing
I like the way this gentleman presents the guqin to everybody. 吳自英(1943—) I also like his site, very clean and to the point, no unnecessary frills - especially smart and timeless is the abstract diagram of the qin face w the 13 nodal points.
About Guqin
Since the art of guqin music was recognized in 2003 by UNESCO as one of humanity's cultural treasures warranting protection, it has begun to receive more attention around the world. However, because of the instrument's rarity, it has fallen far short of broad popularity. Although many are quite curious about guqin music, most have little understanding of it. Thus, achieving a wider international audience who are able to appreciate guqin music is a very difficult task indeed. For this reason, it is incumbent upon every scholar and performer of the guqin to strive to meet this challenge and this is a goal to which all of us who are devoted to the guqin should dedicate ourselves.

Guqin music is China's oldest, purest traditional music, having received very little influence from other Chinese or foreign musical traditions. Within the treasury of Chinese music culture, no other musical instrument can match its extraordinary cultural value. For over a millennium, the guqin repertoire has been preserved, a detailed historical record of the guqin's development has been maintained, and a completely unique system of notation of its music established, which makes the tradition an important and integral part of Chinese culture.

As the contemporary qin scholar Cheng Gongliang 成公亮 remarked in the postscript to his work titled Pao xiu luo lan 袍修羅蘭:

In traditional Chinese culture, the guqin occupies a very important and unique status. It is a rarely seen instrument in either the performing or popular arts. It is an instrument used by the Chinese literati to express yearning and to convey emotion and inspiration. Its elegantly antique sound is often the echo and reverberation from a kind of spiritual realm. It is like a guide to the musing mind. The ancients often used the guqin to articulate their thoughts, playing out their innermost feelings while expressing their spiritual and philosophical worlds.

I have never sought fame or fortune by playing the guqin, and have for over forty years simply offered lessons and occasionally played for movie soundtracks and theatrical dramas. Now, at the urging of my many students, I am releasing my first CD, with a second CD in preparation. If the music I perform increases the audience for the guqin and deepens their appreciation and understanding of the guqin, then I will have achieved my fundamental goal for releasing these CDs.

著名古琴大师吴文光教授在“文一琴舍”作精彩讲座

I have used Professor Wu WenGuang's Barbarian's Reed Pipe in 18 sections - for one of the tunes of the Virtual Instrument, Digital Guqin Hundun no1. A beautiful tune.

Professor Wu showed some new orchestral arrangements that he is experimenting at the Taichung conference. He is one of the rare guqin people who is interested in new ideas. Am happy that he is so open about this.

Narratives, people, action

What makes a successful SIM?
When the people in the SIM share a narrative - that they can construct and build together, thats when its exciting - you want to see what happens next? (with you in it; otherwise, it would be more like making of a movie)

And what happens when you get a successful SIM?
Are you going to continue - immersion and more immersion, and what about real life?
(do you ever get out of the movie? or the theatrical workshops?)

Virtual Worlds are like a passage to real life - otherwise, how does that perpetual immobile parking of the self impact on the real life body?
Wont you get sick from sitting all day infront of the computer? :)
Is it possible to do exercise just by thinking of doing exercise?

How do the massage tables work in sl, and how much does it work?

===

sl rl is there anything you want that you cant get in rl but could test modelling in sl?

A qin playing place

Another quiet place for qin music, the HuaHui Mobile Music house. We are making it right now, want to contribute some aluminum skin ? Details

Anything you really want and cant get in rl and you could talk outloud about?

I presented sl to a friend, a high ranking prof. He said, what is this? What can you do with this? I dont need this.
I asked, is there anything you want that you cant do in rl, maybe you could test it out in sl?
He said, I have everything. I dont need anything.
I said, there are things that you might like, but you cant say it, and there are things that you can say out loud. Are there anything at all that you would like that you could also say outloud that you cant do in rl? Maybe we could try to see if it could be possible in sl?
He thought about this for a while.
He just couldnt get used to these rough little animation figures... what is this all about?

I know what I want.
I want to write stories, draw pictures, create and live a narrative without all the problems of material real life (that is in some way possible if you stayed entirely in sl - but who wants to give up rl to do that? ), build house, create a pleasant environement, and listen to all kinds of music. Good food, good drinks too of course. Then people say, what about the "cookie"? Yes, of course the cookie too. Without the cookie, life becomes slowly meaningless. But if you only had the cookie, you would soon get tired of it.

Chinese and East Asian Music: The Future of the Past

14th International CHIME Conference
Musical Instruments Museum (MIM), Brussels, Belgium
18-22 November, 2009


The CHIME meeting, on 'Chinese and East Asian Music: The Future of the Past', will take place at the Musical Instruments Museum (MIM) in Brussels from 18 to 22 November 2009. We look forward to an impressive programme, with over 60 presentations, supplemented with numerous concert performances and workshops.

We received a formidable number of submissions for the meeting, almost twice the number we thought we might be able to harbour! Not surprisingly, it has taken our Programme Committee great pains and effort to finalize its decisions, and to think of practical solutions. Below, we present the papers and events that have been selected for inclusion in our programme.

The programme will be finalized in October. Keynote speakers will be announced in August.

In early June we will issue on this website a list of possibilities for hotel and youth hostel booking, and a pre-registration form. Given the size and scope of the Europalia Festival and the numbers of visitors expected, we kindly urge you to book accommodation in Brussels as early as possible.

We look forward to welcoming everyone at the MIM in November. Anyone not presenting a paper, but interested in attending the conference programme and the concerts as a listener, is most welcome to register, too. The conference is a scholarly meeting, but open to anyone interested in Chinese and East Asian music.

Conference participants who play traditional musical instruments may want to bring them to our informal musical 'corridor gatherings'.

See you in Brussels in November!

Main conference theme
What are the future prospects for numerous musical genres (and instruments and stylistacal traits) from China and East Asia's past? This theme will be explored from a wide range of angles, such as:

- Development, preservation and reconstructions of musical instruments

- Preservation and continuation of traditional and 'folk' music

- Reconstruction or re-emergence of historical genres

- Continuation of elements from the past in reinvented traditions and in new music

- Conservation and use of recordings, fieldwork materials and collected objects

Special guests, fringe programme, and Europalia Festival
Among the special guests in this meeting we welcome the local shadow puppeteers of Huanxian (East Gansu), the Beijing zheng trio San Chuan (who combine age-old Chinese string idioms with a jazzy groove) , well-known senior masters of Chinese string solo instruments such as Li Guangzu (pipa), Chen Qijun (Chaozhou style zheng), Ding Chengyun and Fu Lina (qin and reconstructed se), senior marionette theatre specialist Wang Jingxian from Fujian, prominent contemporary composers Guo Wenjing (Beijing) and Liu Xing (Shanghai), as well as the much talked about contemporary theatre director Li Liuyi (Beijing), plus numerous young Chinese scholars and artists.
You will have occasion to hear the guqin (the classical Chinese 7-stringed zither) played as you have never heard it played before, will be able to attend vocal workshops on folk song, qin songs and Chinese opera led by renowned specialists. All of this will take place in eminently fitting surroundings, with a lot more Chinese music and culture to enjoy, thanks to the impressive 2009-2010 edition of the Europalia festival of which the CHIME conference will be a part.

The upcoming edition of this festival, a biennial event, will be devoted to China. The festival encompasses no less than eighty (!) concerts of Chinese music, with more than 1,000 artists, as well as some forty exhibitions, and countless other activities, in a period spanning four months. Among the many highlights will be performances by the Guangzhou Symphony Orchestra, the China National Traditional Orchestra (Beijing), but also numerous concerts by rural traditional ensembles and groups, of which several have not performed in the West before. From rowdy shawms and four-stringed fiddles played with bows as thick as broomsticks to the latest fashions in Chinese heavy metal, pop, jazz, and contemporary dance, the festival will have something to offer for everyone's taste!

Poster session


A number of lecture presentations will take place in the framework of a poster session. Presenters invited for this session have already received individual notice about this via email. For the poster session, presenters will be provided with standard-size cartons, on which they can stick photos, printed or written texts etc. We will have cartons, scissors and glue ready in Brussels, but presenters are kindly requested to prepare print-outs and photoprints at home and bring them to Brussels. Visitors will be able watch the posters like in an exhibition; the poster session in its entirety works somewhat like a 'market', with a crowd moving around freely and individually. We will reserve a timeslot of 90 to 120 minutes for this session, with no parallel activities taking place. Presenters can take questions from individual visitors, and may have computers with headphones ready (we will take care of connecting points) to demonstrate moving images or sound examples. In our experience, the poster session is an attractive an effective alternative format for introducing research topics, With the number of presentations offered for Brussels, it is also the only way to schedule everyone whose abstracts have been accepted.


Workshops and Demonstrations

GONG Linna, Beijing, China
Workshop on Chinese Folk Song Singing

ZHAO Chunyan, Shanghai Peking Opera Troupe
Workshop on Peking Opera singing and dance

XIE Zhen, Huanxian Daoist Shadow Puppet Theatre, Gansu
Demonstration: musical instruments and the operation of shadow puppets (with members of the group)

WANG Jingxian, Quanzhou Marionette Puppet Theatre, Fujian
Demonstration: Operating Chinese marionettes (with members of the group)




Concerts and performances


During the 5-day period of the CHIME meeting, a great many concerts of Chinese music will be scheduled in Belgium, for which you can purchase tickets at your own leisure. These include traditional Chinese theatre performances by the Shanghai Peking Opera Troupe, the Huanxian shadow puppeteers and Living Dance Studio in Brussels and Antwerp. Composer Guo Wenjing's fine new opera trilogy 'Heroines' will receive its Belgian premiere, and Liu Sola and other cross-over artists will give concerts in Brussels. Antwerp will host a Shanghai Cultural Week, with Muhai Tang conducting the Flanders Opera Orchestra in works by Chinese composers. The Quanzhou Marionette Theatre of Fujian will perform in Brussels, Eupen and Liege. In the wake of the CHIME meeting, BOZAR in Brussels will organize a China weekend on 5 and 6 December featuring Kun opera, as well as Tibetan, Mongolian, Uighur, Yi, Hani, Zhuang and other ethnic vocal music, plus more puppet theatre (from Zhangzhou) and numerous other events. For more on the programme, you can consult the Europalia festival website at www.europalia.be (details to be published after press conference 7 May 2009)

But even if you will just be in Brussels for CHIME, and decide only to follow the CHIME programme, you will not be able to escape a great deal of live music-making and performances.
The concerts and demonstrations scheduled below will be included in the registration fee for the conference, except for the Chinese opera performance on Saturday 21 November:

18 November (afternoon): Quanzhou Marionette Theatre
Afternoon opening of the CHIME conference by one of China's finest puppet play ensembles of today, (and much more)!

18 November (evening): Guqin, on different terms

"Hey, not guqin again, please...!"

Well, we opted for a difference, and organize a yaji ('elegant meeting') that may not be elegant at times, but pleasing (and shocking) enough in its own right. Here are musicians to make you feel nostalgic about the future of the past, because they shape new vistas for China's oldest and most venerated 'high-brow' string instrument.

Senior masters Ding Chengyun and Fu Lina from Wuhan will play unheard-of duets for qin and se (another type of ancient zither). Lin Chen, young disciple of the celebrated traditional master Lin Youren, adds new dimensions to the deep tranquility and power of her father's style of qin playing. She also accompanies Beijing-based singer Gong Linna in a series of ancient classical as well as newly-composed qin songs, transversing an amazing range of Chinese dialects. Co-support is offered by Wang Hua on bamboo flute. Liu Xing, from Shanghai, succesfully transfers the repertoire of the guqin to zhongruan, making it sound like avant-garde, and Luca Bonvini, one of the West's finest qin players, performs John Coltrane on qin. He turns the classical seven-stringed zither into the saxiest of Chinese instruments.

19 November (morning): Huanxian Daoist Shadow Theatre
Demonstration of the puppets and the ensemble music of a truly fine traditional rural ensemble from Huanxian, East Gansu. At home they perform in temple festivals, and help to cure the sick and the needy. In Brussels, there will be opportunity for curious conference-goers to try out the puppets and the shadow screen for themselves, but also, perhaps, to get blessed by a pantheon of local Gansunese gods and spirits! Those who like to explore the full range of this group's (magnificent) repertoire may want to attend the evening programmes of 20 and 21 November at the Theatre National in Brussels.

19 November (evening): China Blossoms
The old clashes with the new in friendly fashion in this remarkable bouquet of Chinese string instrumental music, adorned with film interviews. The time-honoured art of Li Guangzu, splendid senior pipa master of the silk string era (son of the famous Li Tingsong) is contrasted here with the virtuoso modern-style pipa playing of Zhao Cong, a fantastic young pipa soloist from Beijing. Likewise, Chen Qijun, only in his forties, and already one of the finest traditional style performers of Chaozhou (southern Chinese style) zheng music, will pitch his introvert and meditative traditional solos against the sexy ensemble pieces of the Beijing zheng trio 'San Chuan'. All these performers, steeped in very different musical styles and epochs, can truly make their strings sing, and they perform with rare commitment. Forget about 'the conservatory style' - come and hear this!

21 November: Shanghai Peking Opera Troupe: The Silver Serpent

A crew of nearly eighty from Shanghai will assemble at the Bourla Theatre in Antwerp for a grand-style performance of the Peking Opera classic 'The Legend of the White Snake'. A feast for the eye and the ear, and one of this group's most succesful productions in recent years. Since Antwerp is only half an hour from Brussels, we hope to be able to get our conference participants there comfortably by buss.

22 November: MIM afternoon jamboree
A free for all Sunday afternoon concert by CHIME participants in the main concert hall of the Musical Instrumental Museum Brussels, to conclude our 2009 conference in festive style. Be prepared for surprises, and don't hesitate to contribute to the surprise element yourself!


Exhibitions


The Musical Instruments Museum (MIM) will host an exhibition on Chinese musical instruments, illuminating a broad variety of urban and rural musical traditions. Since CHIME will be hosted by the MIM, concert participants will have ample opportunity to enjoy the displays. The Europalia Festival will host a total of some forty exhibitions devoted to China, including a presentation on folklore art, and numerous cultural exhibitions.

The Palais des Beaux-Arts (BOZAR) will host several major events, notably an exhibition devoted to Chinese emperors, and one devoted to Chinese literati life. One further exhibition that we would like to bring to your special attention will deal with Chinese puppetry, in all its aspects. We are promised a truly gorgeous display, with numerous interactive installations and live demonstrations. Since puppetry is also one of the major themes of the Europalia Festival (with five different groups from China participating), you can read more about this event below.

The world of Chinese puppetry, Bozar, November-December 2009
China may not have its own Pulcinella or Pinocchio, but it has the Monkey King: a magically gifted monkey who frightens the wits out of the Gods in Heaven by stealing the Peaches of Immortality, and eating them all! The Monkey King shares with his European counterparts not only a highly volatile character, or a rare combination of virtue, cleverness and naughtiness, but also ­ in the case of Pulcinella ­ many of his mystical and carnivalesque connotations. For people who love puppetry, China's miniature stages and shadow screens may soon have a homely feel!

Puppetry in China, as in so many parts of the world, emerged thousands of years ago as a magical theatre in the framework of religious observances. Its stories offer ample room for moralizing and ritual doctrine, but Chinese puppet plays are first and foremost packed with action. Many performers are great masters of their art, whose puppets execute the most incredible actions and acrobatic feats. Puppets dress or undress, smoke, drink wine, play musical instruments, dance and move like human beings... The gamut of Chinese puppet plays ­ like that of its bigger stage pendant, Chinese opera ­ runs from delicate lyrical drama to spectacular fighting scenes, from classical romance to slapstick. Most puppet plays are actually operas, with one or more singers and instrumental accompaniment, and countless regional genres and musical styles have emerged in the course of time in almost every part of China.

Puppetry frequently transcends the world of ordinary man, and explores the realms of the super-powerful, the supernatural, and the fantastic: in Chinese genres, we may run into the Goddess of the Moon, or meet a procession of musicking animal spirits, or watch the Eight Immortals at work, floating by on high clouds... A truly impressive wealth of different genres ­ from shadow theatre to marionette theatre, from stick and glove puppets to water puppets, from rod puppets to 'flesh' puppets ­ is matched by an equally impressive craftsmanship on the part of puppet makers and related craftsmen. The exquisitely carved wooden puppets from the National Arts Museum of China in this exhibition may serve as a case in point.

Chinese puppetry today flourishes in a great many different contexts, from rural rituals to modern urban stage entertainment, from TV animation to cyberspace games. If, in the last two centuries, China's turbulent history has seen an initial decline of many traditional forms, it has also witnessed many splendid revivals and new developments. New media now offer fierce competition to local puppet shows, but they have also given important impulses to the innovation of puppetry, as this rich exhibition will show. Fluorescent paint, laser light, computer-steered animation and a wide range of other new techniques are now used to guide (or misguide!) the spectator's eye.

In the meantime, many rural traditions in China continue to thrive beyond expectation, with their local ritual functions intact. This exhibition draws in particular on the local shadow puppetry of Huanxian, a barren region in eastern Gansu (West China), where more than forty shadow puppet troupes continue to be active today. With Chinese New Year, when fireworks are lit in this region¹s capital, it is nearly impossible to round any street corner of the small town without bumping into a shadow theatre performance! The delicate 'cowskin babies' ­ as they are lovingly called ­ of local Huanxian artisans are not only fine samples of craftsmanship, but are sometimes hardly any less fantastic or capricious than the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch or Hokusai.

Puppet groups performing in Belgium in the framework of Europalia are: the Marionette Theatre of Quanzhou, the Zhangzhou Handpuppet Theatre from Fujian, the Yangzhou hand and wire puppet ensemble from Jiangsu, the Tangshan Municipal Shadow Theatre Company, and the Daoist Shadow Theatre from Huanxian (Gansu).
