Fighting and dancing games both emerge from Asia, and they both foreground the body. They strip down bodily movement into elemental actions like stepping, kicking, leaping, and tapping, and make these the form and content of the game. I argue that fighting and dancing games point to a key dynamic in videogame play: the programming of the body into the algorithmic logic of the game, a logic that increasingly organizes the informatic structure of everyday work and leisure in a globally interconnected information economy.

    Be water, my friend Kluwer Mediation Blog February 2, 2020 Ting-Kwok IU (Kwok, Ng & Chan, Solicitors & Notaries) Please refer to this post as: Ting-Kwok IU, ‘Be water, my friend’, Kluwer Mediation Blog, February 2 2020, http://mediationblog.kluwerarbitration.com/2020/02/02/be-water-my-friend/ I was first introduced to Kluwer Mediation Blog byProfessor Joel Lee of the National University of Singapore when he shared “A Mediator’s Prayer” in his July 2014 blog entry. Joel is no stranger here. He is not only a prominent mediator but also a Chinese martial arts master. Joel practises and teaches Wing Chun – a kind of Chinese martial arts which was also practised by the world-famous martial artist, philosopher and movie star Bruce Lee (1940-1973). In 1971, Bruce Lee was interviewed at “The Pierre Berton Show” (commonly known as Bruce Lee: The “Lost” Interview). During the interview, Bruce Lee was asked about the lines that he had in the famous TV series “Longstreet”. Bruce Lee on the spot recited the following which, though not exactly the same as the lines of “Longstreet”, have become viral internationally throughout the years. He said: “Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” While I am no martial arts practitioner, I also find the practice of skills of mediation like water.

In 1971 he made his first martial arts film, Tang Shan Daxiong, in which he played a Chinese immigrant to Thai- land who discovers that his boss is a drug-smuggling kingpin. The following year, he starred in Jing Wu Men as a martial artist who defends Chinese pride against Japanese imperialists in the International Settlement of early twentieth- century Shanghai. Because of the overwhelming popularity of both films in Hong Kong and throughout Asia, National General Pictures selected them for distribution in the United States in 1973. Tang Shan Daxiong was supposed to be released as The Chinese Connection to associate it with The French Con- nection, a mainstream hit about heroin trafficking; the title ofJing Wu Men was translated as Fist of Fury.

  • Bruce Lee and Post-DVD Textuality
    JOMEC Journal Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies Enter the 2-Disc Platinum Edition: Bruce Lee and Post-DVD Textuality Leon Hunt Brunel University Email: [email protected] Keywords Bruce Lee DVD textuality DVD extras The Big Boss Game of Death Abstract Bruce Lee’s films have moved across not only cultural boundaries, but also different media platforms – film, television, video and an assortment of digital media. DVD and Blu- ray don’t just facilitate ownership of optimum and definitive versions of texts, but also re- define textuality through their secondary materials. As Barbara Klinger argues, ‘DVD acts as an ambassador of context, entering the home complete with its own armada of discourses meant to influence reception, including behind-the-scenes industry information and commentary tracks’. In the case of a culturally contested figure like Bruce Lee, such an armada of discourses might be particularly worthy of study. Moreover, DVD introduces new criteria for determining what makes a ‘perfect DVD movie’, by making use of the audio-visual ‘perfection’ facilitated by the medium or presenting particularly impressive arrays of extras. Bruce Lee is perhaps not an obvious candidate for post-DVD study, compared to such formats as the TV boxed set or multi-disc extended cut of a Hollywood blockbuster. These comparatively low budget films don’t lend themselves to the audio-visual perfection expected of a high-end blockbuster movie. Moreover, most DVD versions of his films (including releases in HK and the US) have been light on extra features. Nevertheless certain releases of Lee films do raise interesting questions in the light of post-DVD debates.

  • Kung Fu Cultural Revolution and Japanese Imperialism
    CHAPTER ONE Kung Fu Cultural Revolution and Japanese Imperialism We have no nation without a fight against those who oppress us. We have no culture but a culture born out of our resistance to oppression. —Linda Harrison With the power of hindsight, the proclamation of a popular cultural revolu- tion, which swept the world from Hong Kong, can be traced back to Bruce Lee’s statement on gung fu (Cantonese spelling of kung fu) made in 1965 when the term was virtually unknown to the rest of the world. A few years prior to the official outbreak of the revolution in Hong Kong, Lee happened to be interviewed by the Twentieth Century Fox studio as part of the screen test for an actor skilled in the “Oriental” martial arts. At this occasion, Lee in effect unleashed the power of ancient Chinese martial arts by removing the veil of hitherto kept secrecy: Well, gung fu is originated in China. It is the ancestor of karate and jujitsu. It’s more of a complete system and it’s more fluid. ...(What’s the difference between a gung fu punch and a karate punch?) A karate punch is like an iron bar—“whack!” A gung fu punch is like an iron chain with an iron ball attached to the end, and it go[es] “wang!” and it hurt[s] inside.1 This screen test, which ultimately led Lee to his debut in Hollywood as Kato in The Green Hornet (1966–1967), was a by-product of his first appearance at a U.S.

FROM THE GILDED GHETTO TO HOLLYWOOD: BRUCE LEE, KUNG FU, AND THE EVOLUTION OF CHINESE AMERICA A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts History by Darcy Anne Robards Coover December 2008 Accepted by: Dr. Abel A. Bartley, Committee Chair Dr. James M. Burns Dr. Edwin E. Moïse ABSTRACT As has been true for most groups of immigrants arriving in the United States, the Chinese have undergone a wide-ranging, and at times rapid, transformation in the eyes of mainstream America. No other ethnic or racial group in American history has been so singled out for immigration regulation as have the Chinese—the Exclusion Act, passed in 1882, still represents the only time that a particular ethnic group was selected for immigration restriction. While an analysis of the legal history of the era reveals the various restrictions faced by Chinese immigrants in terms of the state, a look at American popular culture paints an even more vivid picture of the Chinese American experience.

  • Timing in Bruce Lee's Writings COLIN P. Mcguire
    Colin P. McGuire was until recently an IRC Postdoctoral Fellow in the CONTRIBUTOR Department of Music at University College Cork, Ireland. He holds a PhD in Ethnomusicology and an MA in Electroacoustic Composition from York University, as well as a Graduate Diploma in Asian Studies from the York Centre for Asian Research. His academic work centres on the locus of music and body. He is particularly interested in how being attentive to choreomusical connections between movement and sound can contribute to understandings of being-in-the-world, relationships, values, and beliefs. Currently, McGuire’s research focuses on music and martial arts, examining transmission processes, tradition/legacy, body-experience, community/identity, and heroic display. As a composer and sound artist, McGuire has worked with dancers and choreographers like the Little Pear Garden Dance Company and Ballet Creole’s Patrick Parson. Under the DJ/producer pseudonym Ronin E-Ville, his eclectic electronic dance music (EDM) has been in the Top 20 of Canada’s Earshot radio charts for electronica and has also been licensed to the Gemini Award- winning TV show Departures. Timing in Bruce Lee’s Writings as Inspiration for Listening Musically to HanD Combat AND Martial Arts Performance COLIN P. mCGUIRE DOI ABSTRACT 10.18573/mas.83 Timing is how we know when to do something in order to achieve an aim, and it is essential to all manner of human endeavour. In his posthumous international bestseller Tao of Jeet Kune Do [1975], Bruce Lee discussed timing as a quality of martial arts. His most influential timing concept is broken rhythm, an KEYWORDs idea that has resonated with martial artists around the world.

  • Enter the Žižekian: Bruce Lee, Martial Arts, and the Problem of Knowledge
    EnterText 6.1 PAUL BOWMAN Enter The Žižekian: Bruce Lee, Martial Arts, and the Problem of Knowledge Q: What’s your style? Lee: My style? I suppose you could call it the art of fighting without fighting. Q: Fighting without fighting?... Show me some of it! Lee: Later. Enter The Dragon1 1. “What’s your Style?” The Problem of Knowledge In a famous exchange in Enter the Dragon, a belligerent martial artist who has been bullying the crew and staff of the boat on which a group of martial artists are travelling to a competition, asks Mr Lee (Bruce Lee) “What’s your style?” He is clearly out for a fight. Lee replies: “My style? I suppose you could call it the art of fighting without fighting.” This unusual and unexpected response baffles his questioner, who demands to be shown some of it. Unable to avoid a confrontation, Lee’s response takes the form of a completely banal and pragmatic demonstration of “fighting without fighting:” by proposing that they would hve more room to fight if they were to row to a nearby island, Paul Bowman: Enter The Žižekian 11 EnterText 6.1 he tricks the aggressor into climbing aboard a small rowing boat in a perilously rough sea. Lee then untethers the boat and hands the rope to those who had been bullied, who proceed to toy with their now-helpless erstwhile persecutor. Hence, Lee shows what “fighting without fighting” most literally means. Nevertheless, despite the banality of this demonstration, every viewer knows that the phrase “the art of fighting without fighting” really encapsulates something more, something enigmatic, “deep” and profound.
