The Individual and the Crowd in Jia Zhangke's Films Jung Koo Kim A
Goldsmiths College University of London Cinema of Paradox: The Individual and the Crowd in Jia Zhangke’s Films Jung Koo Kim A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the department of Media and Communications August 2016 1 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of the university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgment has been made in the text. Signed…… …………… Date….…10-Aug.-2016…… 2 ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to understand Chinese film director Jia Zhangke with the concept of “paradox.” Challenging the existing discussions on Jia Zhangke, which have been mainly centered around an international filmmaker to represent Chinese national cinema or an auteur to construct realism in post-socialist China, I focus on how he deals with the individual and the crowd to read through his oeuvre as “paradox.” Based on film text analysis, my discussion develops in two parts: First, the emergence of the individual subject from his debut feature film Xiao Wu to The World; and second, the discovery of the crowd from Still Life to his later documentary works such as Dong and Useless. The first part examines how the individual is differentiated from the crowd in Jia’s earlier films under the Chinese social transformation during the 1990s and 2000s. For his predecessors, the collective was central not only in so-called “leitmotif” (zhuxuanlü or propaganda) films to enhance socialist ideology, but also in Fifth Generation films as “national allegory.” However, what Jia pays attention to is “I” rather than “We.” He focuses on the individual, marginal characters, and the local rather than the collective, heroes, and the national. -
Investigation of the Level Structure of Nb-90 Nucleus Using the Shell Model

Investigation of the level structure Wu Yi-Heng, 90 Yang Dong, of Nb nucleus using the shell model Ma Ke-Yan, Luo Peng-Wei Abstract. Shell model calculations have been carried out for 90Nb nucleus with the model space in which the valence protons occupy the f5/2, p3/2, p1/2, and g9/2 orbitals and the valence neutrons occupy the p1/2, g9/2, d5/2, and g7/2 orbitals. According to the calculated results, the negative parity is from the contribution of the proton of the 90 f5/2, p3/2, and p1/2 orbits. The moderate spin states of Nb are mainly due to the excitation of protons from the f5/2 and p3/2 orbits to the p1/2 and g9/2 orbits across the Z = 38 subshell closure, and the high spin states arise from the excitation of a single neutron from the g9/2 orbit into the d5/2 orbit across the N = 50 shell closure. Keywords: high spin state • level structure • proton excitation • shell model Nuclei in the A~90 mass region provide unique opportunity to investigate the infl uence of Z = 38 subshell closure and N = 50 shell closure on the level structures. A vast number of studies have showed that the level structures of nuclei in the A~90 mass region could be well described within the shell model framework. -

Making the Ordinary Fashionable: New sartorial languages from Russia and China. Hazel Clark and Alla Eizenberg Parsons School of Design The New School New York. Across the twentieth century the politics, histories and culture of both Russia and China resonated with one another, and in addition the dress of both countries served as ‘inspiration’ for Western fashion designers. As we know, this referencing drew in particular on spectacular and extraordinary garments from imperial Russia (e.g. Yves St Laurent’s ‘Russian’ collection 1976/77) and China (Christian Lacroix, Frontière Chinoise F/W 1992/3). It also impacted, in the late 20c, the aesthetic adopted by some emerging Chinese and Russian designers and brands towards self-Orientalization. We can mention in this context the enormous attention given to the work of Chinese haute couture designer Guo Pei in the Metropolitan Museum, Costume Institute exhibition, China Through the Looking Glass (2015), including the dress she designed for Rihanna to wear at the Met Ball. Similarly, Russian designers Ulyana Sergeenko and Vika Gazinskaya became regulars on the Paris haute couture and ready to wear fashion week schedules, with designs referencing Russian imperial and folk dress. Other Chinese and Russian designers, however, have taken less predictable - and arguably more interesting - directions. For this paper we have chosen to look at two - Russian Gosha Rubchinskiy and Chinese Ma Ke. While working with different aesthetics, both have developed design strategies that are informed by ordinary garments and aspects of everyday life in their respective cultures and nations. In a broader sense, they are also affiliated by the historical synergies and political alliances between their two countries, in particular in the first half of the twentieth century, between the Soviet Union and Communist China (the complexities of which we will consider more in the book chapter). -
A Letter from China 18 September 2014
A letter from China 18 September 2014 A Trip to the Mall I am a terrible shopper. I lack the patience for it. In Chinese supermarkets in particular, amid the crowds and noise, I can last about 30 minutes. On many working days, however, I find myself in the Super Brand Mall next to my office, as this building offers several convenient venues for lunch (40 to be precise). It also offers a place for a post-lunch stroll and a spot of people-watching, when it is too hot or wet outside. It is a strange building. Despite its prime position (on the river facing the Bund) it does not make much of its river views. Its 13 floors and 250,000 square metres now seem rather insignificant, squatting beneath the many skyscrapers that have sprung up around it. The mall is owned by the Charoen Pokphand Group from Thailand, which was able to access this prime site through its early investments in Chinese agriculture (notably chicken-slaughtering). The Thai ownership is reflected in the Buddhist shrine outside the front door and in the CP-owned Lotus supermarket in the basement, which specialises in Thai imports. The basement therefore used to be redolent of durian during the season, but any such odours are now overwhelmed by the busy Food Street established there. When I first visited the mall in 2003, shortly after its opening, it resembled a morgue. My footsteps echoed on the marble as I marched past acres of shuttered shop-fronts. The Pudong side of the river was still relatively undeveloped, and those developments were of half-empty office blocks, deserted on evenings and at weekends. -
A Quiet Designer

Chen Jie reports. Chinese fashion doyenne Ma Ke’s show is staged at a factoryturnedcreative space in Beijing earlier this month. PHOTOS PROVIDED TO CHINA DAILY or people like me, who dislike primping up for a fashion show but sometimes have to go owing to professional reasons, a recent event was a welcome change. The organizers insisted on a dress code, though, but it read: “Please dress in a casual and comfortable way — no tight skirts or highheels.” The fashion show was held at a factoryturnedcreative space behind Beijing’s National Art Museum on a MidAutumn Festival evening, and I wore my jeans and sandals. As soon as I arrived, I knew why highheels were barred. We climbed up a set of steep steel steps Fthat led us to the roof of a building, where we were served fruit in handmade bowls, traditional desserts wrapped in leaves and homemade rice liquor.

Chinese Independent Documentary Films in Post- Socialist China
FLOATING AS THE KEYWORD: CHINESE INDEPENDENT DOCUMENTARY FILMS IN POST- SOCIALIST CHINA by SIOSAN UN A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in East Asian Studies Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Siosan Un 2009 Floating as the keyword: Chinese Independent Documentary Films in Post-Socialist China Siosan Un Master of Arts in East Asian Studies Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2009 Abstract Independent documentary films have made floating population–such as the migrants and people who flow from place to place– a prominent screen scene against China’s social and cultural landscapes since the 1990s. This study investigates how a “floating generation” of Chinese filmmakers has been formed and represented as an imagined community in China’s post-socialist context through Chinese independent documentaries. An attempt to excavate and examine the problems behind the instable but also flexible status of Chinese independent filmmaking within the state censorship, my study focuses on the implications of the keyword “floating” as they unfold along the development of Chinese independent documentary films. In a case study of Jia Zhangke’s three documentaries, In Public , Dong and Useless , my study analyzes the relationship between independent documentaries and China’s campaign of “constructing a harmonious society”. ii Acknowledgments I wish to express my deep gratitude to Professor Meng Yue for supervising my research and for all her guidance and encouragement. I also owe a gratitude to Professor Hy Van Luong, the director of the Collaborative Master’s Program in Asia Pacific Studies (MAPS), whose intelligence and sharpness have greatly benefited my study. -
