Quantitative and Qualitative Methods
Hi all, we launched Cantocore.com and are ramping up promotion for this show in Guangzhou initially in September 2008. Here is the post re-blogged:
Hi all, welcome to a new project which is a collaboration between Fabricatorz and Garage Biennale. Here are two levels of scale about the project:

星期四晚上我们顺利举行了黄埔村录像计划放映活动。这个项目从录像课题的研究，到拍摄，后期制作，到活动的组织和放映对我们07班的同学来说都是一个考验。而且时间很短，从第一次进村到放映不过两周时间。但是我的一向宗旨是不要太多顾虑，做了再说，成败不是唯一标准。这个项目是在黄埔村这样一个现实背景下展开的，而且又在村里举行放映活动，所以每个参与项目的人都承担着一定的社会责任，也就是大家做的并不仅仅是一个单纯而无风险的课堂作业。这种责任感是我希望参与项目的同学们能在黄埔村计划中体会到的最重要的一点。
尽管我们没有做很全面的活动宣传，仅仅是活动前一天才在村里和大学里贴了海报，但是当晚有不少村民，穿着拖鞋穿着睡衣来看录像，还有古港纪念馆的人也来了。黄埔村的本地居民和管理村子的官方人员有一定的隔阂。以当天的情况看，因为我们学生的立场是第三方的中立者，所以把两方的人都吸引来了。从不同的立场，他们都对这种放映方式和录像的内容表现了莫大的兴趣。我想这次活动应该是一个启示，希望村民和官方会开始寻求一种合作和对话的方式。
感谢所有中大数媒07级的同学在那么短时间内完成了这批录像作品，所有参加筹备和组织放映活动的中坚份子。当然还要感谢其他很多人，包括无象工作室的王铬，胡氏宗祠的胡老伯和所有来参加活动的观众们。下面是我拍的一些照片。如果你有照片的话请在博客上发发帖子，和我们共享一下。
我们的观众有校服一族
老人小孩一族
我最喜欢的，睡衣一族

Lu has been using this site with her class and having all the students post their papers and other writings here. They also are using the wiki — something I highly encourage for all you teachers out there! I think this is great!
I want to point out though to all bloggers that blogging is not [...]
I posted this to my site first, but it is a new design to the casual military-style cBlends line:
This forth military jacket that created by Lu Jun in Guangzhou is especially good remake from the structure. One side (the longer side in the pictures) of the jacket is revert from inside. That’s what you see, [...]
Looks like cBlends is going to be part of Versionfest this year in Chicago. Also, while I’m majorly time/jet lagged from 8 days of SXSW, I had to quote this great spam which totally hits the nail on the mark about where we get our merchandise for blending clothes:

I posted this on my site, but it should be plugged here:
New cuts from Han Yan and Lu Jun have arrived, adding into our 50/50 Fashion collection. First item is a blue floral women’s jacket combines with a brown suit, two conflicting styles. Second item is Casual Military jacket, combines two military style jackets and [...]
We started a new project while visiting Guangzhou’s clothing market. I name it Fashion 50/50 for now. Han Yan in Guangzhou will be collaborating on the project, and maybe Bibi (Lu Jun) as well. The first image is the first suit we made in Han Yan’s studio in Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts. The other [...]
