things well done | jay chou spoofed ::
:: I just came across this video directed by Lee Tang (李唐) of the Lu Xun Academy of Fine Art (鲁迅美术学院) that spoofs the classic revolutionary opera The Long March Suite (长征组歌) to the tune of Jay Chou’s hit song Ninja. The video itself is great, but what I most appreciate is the front-and-center watermark throughout. Lee likely used an unregistered / free software to extract the original clip, making this fine piece of work that much more “from the Chinese Internet.” This video is also available on Youku for faster loading in China. // AjS

Hey,
I liked your article about the first wooden coaster in China. I was looking to find pictures of it and found your blog site on it. My friend Korey (a michigan tech grad) works for the gravity group and just came back from there couple day back.
I’m from Ann Arbor, MI (I looked up your name and saw you went here for school)
I thought that was cool so I thought I’d write.
Later,
Dan

Interestingly enough, this is a video which is implicitly banned by the SARFT rules and regulations in China.
SARFT specifically bans all online audio-visual material that:
1) Opposes the basic principles of the Chinese constitution;
2) Jeopardizes China’s unity, sovereignty or territorial integrity;
3) Divulges state secrets, endangers national security or harms national honor and interest;
4) Incites ethnic hatred, racial discrimination, harms national solidarity or encroaches on national customs;
5) Publicizes cults or superstitions;
6) Disrupts social order or stability;
7) Incites minors to break the law or romanticizes violence, obscenity, gambling or terrorism;
8) Humiliates or slanders individuals, or infringes on citizens’ privacy or other legal rights;
9) Endangers public morality or cultural traditions
10) Violates other laws or regulations.
Number 3, possibly number 8, and 9 on the list, we have a winner!
