China’s Inner Mongolia quarantines tourists amid COVID-19 resurgence

More than 2,000 tourists visiting China’s Inner Mongolia region have been sent to hotels to undergo two weeks of quarantine following the detection of new cases of COVID-19 in the area. 

The move follows reports of an outbreak of COVID-19 in the vast, lightly populated region that attracts visitors with its mountains, lakes and grasslands. 

An announcement from the regional government on Friday said 2,428 visitors had been placed under observation at hotels in the cities of Baotou and Ordos.

That came after successive reports of new cases of local infection in the region, with Inner Mongolia accounting for 19 of the 48 new cases of domestic transmission announced Friday. 

The quarantines are typical of the strict measures China has taken to control the pandemic, which also include mask wearing, electronic case tracing, mass testing, lockdowns and vaccinations.

MAD designs white cloud-like science museum on Haikou coast

Chinese architecture studio MAD has released visuals of the top-heavy Hainan Science and Technology Museum that it has designed for the coast of Haikou in China.

Slated to open to the public in 2024, the cloud-like museum will encompass 46,528 square metres on a verdant site in the city near a national wetland park.

Above: MAD has unveiled the Hainan Science and Technology Museum. Top image: it will be built on a site in Haikou

The Hainan Science and Technology Museum is being designed by MAD to serve as a major tourist attraction for Haikou, in which visitors can explore science, technology and nature.

It is also the second project designed by the studio in the city to resemble a white cloud, with the other being the recently completed Cloudscape of Haikou, which opened in April 2021.

It will have a top-heavy cloud-like form

"MAD's design for the museum draws from the site's dual urban and natural context," said the studio, which is led by Chinese architect Ma Yansong.

"Set against the backdrop of a rich tropical rainforest, the museum's main pavilion is shaped like a cloud in dialogue with nature," it continued.

"From a distance, the futuristic building appears to emerge from the city, while visitors entering in the museum area witness it floating above the jungle."

A number of outdoor spaces are incorporated into the design

The building's futuristic cloud-like aesthetic will be achieved by MAD by using silvery fibre-reinforced plastic across its exterior.

It will have a top-heavy form, planned around a large central atrium with a domed skylight and bounded by three floor-to-ceiling elevator cores.

A reflective pool will feature outside

Over half of the building's footprint will be dedicated to facilities above ground. The remaining 18,746 square metres of the building will be contained in the basement.

Its main facilities will include permanent exhibition spaces as well as a planetarium, a theatre with a giant screen and a flying theatre – a type of simulator ride.

The building is planned around a large atrium

A ramp that doubles as an exhibition space will play a key role in the building, ascending five floors around the atrium to connect all of the museum's facilities.

MAD has planned for the exhibition experience to begin on the fifth floor, where the elevators will bring visitors to a 360-degree viewing platform overlooking the sea and cityscape.

Visitors will then be invited to descend down the spiralling ramp into the other galleries, which will explore topics ranging from technology and space to life sciences and maths.

The second floor will contain an "interactive experience area" and a children's playground.

The fifth floor will feature panoramic views

Outside, the building will be complete with a canopy that will unwind and project out from the main pavilion in all directions to offer shelter from the city's humid and rainy climate.

There will also be various outdoor public spaces, including a sunken plaza and reflective pool, intended as areas for relaxation.

Some exhibitions will be dedicated to space

MAD was founded by Yansong in Beijing in 2004 by Yansong. It now has offices in Los Angeles, New York and Rome. Elsewhere in China, it is currently developing a multi-purpose cultural centre that was also designed to resemble a floating cloud.

Clouds have proven to be a popular reference for many recent architecture projects in China. SANAA also recently designed a museum in Shenzhen modelled on "clouds emerging from the sea", while Gad Line+ Studio designed a pavilion in Shangdong to mimic "a floating cloud hovering in the mountains".

Faye Wong, Li Yapeng "tie the knot" (2005)

A close friend of Faye Wong and Li Yapeng said the pair had gone to Europe to marry at a registry office.

The love affair between pop diva Faye Wong and heartthrob Li Yapeng has long been making tabloid headlines, and now the latest whisper is that they have gone to Europe to get married.

The news was revealed Tuesday by a close friend of the couple surnamed Wang who said the pair had gone to Europe to marry at a registry office.

They might choose France or Switzerland because Wong loves these two places very much. In October last year, Wong, accompanied by Li, went to France to do a commercial and they had a wonderful tour there,¡± Wang said.

If the couple had decided to get married in Europe, they might have done so to avoid the prying eyes of China¡¯s paparazzi, Wang said, adding that simple marriage registration procedures in France and Switzerland might have been another reason.

Wong had previously told close friends that she wanted to get married in a foreign country. However, Li¡¯s best friend, popular actor Wang Xuebing, said he knew nothing about Li¡¯s marriage plans.

If the rumor is true, it will be Wong¡¯s second marriage and Li¡¯s first. Wong and Li are among the most talked-about celebrity couples in China and their courtship has long been a popular topic. After divorcing Dou Wei, a famous rocker, Wong had an affair with Hong Kong singer Nicolas Tse. Li¡¯s former girlfriends include model Qu Ying and actress Zhou Xun.

Sunday chain #27

1. It was my mother who first discovered the fuel leak. Or at least, that's what we thought it was then. My grandmother, who was the last of us to have set foot on Earth, had died the month before. We had gathered in the laundry atrium, which was the largest open space without ongoing maintenance work, and made such tribute as we could: this is one of the first things I remember. My mother said it felt like a new era, like we were on our own. Although of course we had been out of radio contact with Earth for many years by then. And then, so soon after: the fuel numbers didn't quite add up. The guardian angels of the old world gone, and we were on our own. But we had excess fuel against unplanned contingencies. It was the slowest of slow leaks. No big deal.

2. There is another thing that is odd about the path of the ship: sometimes it makes corrections that we did not tell it to make. Not often, but sometimes. I wish I could say that I was the one who discovered this, but I think it was Grace Cao who first noticed it. The ship does have a mechanism for external course corrections. It was designed for two circumstances: to retrieve the ship in the case of the crew becoming somehow disabled at launch, and at the fabled other end: for our children's children's children to be guided into port on the new worlds by the settlers who had landed before them. It uses a separate communications channel: minimal data and supposedly programmable across huge distances. But it is entirely possible that it is buggy. Still, the end point of our journey is the system that it always was. Also, hopefully, no big deal.

3. Over the years, we have gone from thinking of the ship as a complex but explicable machine to thinking of it as a mysterious engine that we cannot quite control. Too much not quite lining up. Maintenance is turning into ritual. The Machine is turning up in the old stories from Earth. It keeps us alive but it can punish us. It is capricious and sometimes angry. So we were ready for the latest development, I suppose. Too ready: there is so me scandal down in engineering with Peter and the Adeosun wards, and I have heard people say, joking-not-joking, that our fuel problems are down to moral failing.

4. Nevertheless, I think the changes we now see are more likely to belong in the domain of the fuel leak. And this time they are worrying. If we sustain this level of fuel depletion to our destination, we will be out of reserves. Too many things to go wrong. There has been an uptick in the rate of fuel loss, and no obvious reason for it. I sent Xuebing and Grace Cao out on a spacewalk to inspect the fuel tanks. It has been a long time since since anyone went on spacewalk. We had to fire up the fabricator to print a new seal for the second suit. But they have not found anything external.

5. The way it fluctuates is curious. I am not sure that we are looking at this the right way.

6. Of course, the other option is that it is something in our course correction. We have certainly not made any deviation in heading for years, intentionally or unintentionally. It cannot be that. Could it be speed correction? We are at the speed we would expect to be at, at this point in the journey. But if were to deviate from this, the ship would automatically intervene to put us back. It would use fuel. But why would it need to? We are in deep space. We are as alone as any humans have ever been. There is nothing here to slow us down.

7. Some further time has passed. Grace Sharma has been plotting the anomaly. But I fear now that we are already beyond the point where the mission is lost. We will not be able to correct at the other end. Perhaps when we get there we can send the settlers a distress call. Perhaps they can rescue us somehow.

8. The crew at the bridge all know it now, but for the while we have not told the others. Maybe there is some way out. If only we knew what was happening! It is hard to extract the information, but with Bernard-Rose and Grace's help I think we have it confirmed: the engines are running at a higher rate than they should for what is supposed to be primarily a power-generation role  On a whim, I tried assuming the missing fuel had gone into speed correction. What could the forces on the ship have been to cause that? And out came the plot, like a dream, like a nightmare. Because this was a curve that I had seen before.

9. The Wang-Fernstell curve. Physics class. One of a range of competitors to the standard model of quantum gravity. A fringe idea, really. In any case not experimentally confirmable on the small scales available in the solar system. But on a long voyage across deep space: yes, absolutely confirmable. You would observe a slow deceleration over time, oscillating in a distinctive way, increasing in magnitude. Or, if you had a ship that corrected for that sort of thing, you would gradually run out of fuel. And then stop. In deep space. So it seems we have made an incredibly important discovery about the structure of the Universe. And it seems that we will never be able to tell anyone about it. It seems that we are doomed.

10. I have told the others. The ship is very quiet. I cannot stop thinking of all the ships that went before us, of all the ships that will come after. Did they all make this discovery, once they were beyond hope of rescue? Are they all lost? Is the Earth even now churning out new ships to drift, lifeless, into the void, and pinning all its future hopes on them? We have turned off the speed correction in the hope of saving fuel for power, though we will be able to eke a tiny amount out of the solar panels when that fails. But now, of course, the ship has started making course corrections again, ones that we cannot override. Of course. I have asked Peter to move up to the kitchen hold. It is not at all clear that he is safe.

11. Another correction. We are going to run out of fuel. We are coming towards our final resting place.

12. We are coming towards our final resting place. And there is something there. Something gleaming in the starlight up ahead. It is hard to make out. A complex, huge, many-looped grey thing, studded across with tiny lights.

13. It is the ships. It is the other ships. Thousands and thousands of them, all linked up: something between a space station and a planet. We are within radio range of it now. And they have been calling us! We are to dock at the nearmost point. They called us from an atrium full of trees. Trees! I have never seen such a thing. But why not use some of the seeds now, whilst they lie becalmed? And maybe it will not be forever. They say there may be something they can make of the new physics, some way to make these odd forces work for us. But for now I am just marvelling at the thing they have made. It has states. There are parts of it where the languages are diverging. There are parts of it that worship the myth of the machine. We will all have to choose where to live and what to work on. So much to do, to keep it alive!

14. But one thing still to do now: use the remaining fuel to power up the long-range transmitter. We need to send the requisite course corrections to the next ship down the line.

On Wednesday I went to Format Masterclass with Hazel Marshall. This was a very useful masterclass because Hazel Marshall managed to explain basic rules of how to make a successful TV programme and pointed out what is trending at the moment. Information from this masterclass will be useful in any future role.  Within two hours she talked about: 

what is format;

what is trending at the moment; 

how to make a format;

how to build a structure of the programme; 

how to set a tone; 

how to set a world.  

I am having a great time at the Glasgow Film Festival. During my first two shifts, I have met many people and the majority of them have been working at the festival for years and are industry professionals. Although, most of the volunteers are students that studies media or arts and this is a great opportunity for networking. My main responsibilities are to communicate with the festival audience, check tickets and help with any issues relating to screening and tickets. Ability to solve problems and good communication skills can be adapted to my future career path as a vision mixer or director. Moreover, being a volunteer gives me an opportunity to see how the festival is being organised from the 'inside', for example, how many people working in the festival and what kind of responsibilities they have. 

On Thursday and Saturday I had my Glasgow Film Festival shifts. 

This week I saw:

1. Mothers' Instinct (2018) Directed by Olivier Masset-Depasse [Film]. France, Belgium: Axia Films, Haut et Court, Karma Films, Indie Sales. 

There are echoes of Hitchcock and Patricia Highsmith in this luscious, devilishly entertaining Belgium thriller. Suburban neighbours Alice (Veerle Baetens) and Celine (Anne Coesens) are the very best of friends. Their inseparable sons are more like brothers than chums. When tragedy strikes, they both struggle to accept the consequences. A once happy relationship is infected with suspicion, paranoia and resentment. Are their responses a natural reaction to trauma, or there something more sinister afoot? The suspense of finding out will take you to the edge of your seat...

2. The Pluto Moment (2018) Directed by Ming Zhang [Film]. China. 

A meditative and metaphysical journey into the artist psyche, The Pluto Moment follows a film director’s search for inspiration deep in the mountains of southwest China. Inspired by the Chinese mourning song ”The Tale of Darkness”, Wang Zhun (Xuebing Wang) seeks to delve into rural China alongside his producer and photographer, only to find himself reflecting on his role in the world. Parallels to Fellini and Antonioni, as well as cinematography surpassed only by Wong Kar-Wai, make this a film to melt into, as well as one you won't forget.

3. Easy Rider (1969) Directed by Dennis Hopper [Film]. USA: Columbia Pictures. 

Few films embody the changing times of 1960s America as sharply as Easy Rider. Dennis Hopper’s state of the nation road movie follows bikers Wyatt (Peter Fonda) and Billy (Hopper) as they head for the New Orleans Mardi Gras. Roaring down the highway, travelling light and sleeping rough, they encounter the jagged edges of a deeply divided country. A triumph of low-budget, independent filmmaking, Easy Rider also brought stardom and a first Oscar nomination to a scene-stealing Jack Nicholson as a disillusioned lawyer drawn to these irresistible free spirits.

4. Tell It to the Bees (2018) Directed by Annabel Jankel [Film]. United Kingdom: Vertigo Releasing, Good Deed Entertainment.

The Scotland of 1952 is no place for the faint-hearted. When mill worker Lydia (Holluday Grainger) is abandoned by her philandering husband, she struggles to pay the rent and feed herself and son Charlie (Gregor Selkirk). Local doctor Jean (Anna Paquin) is one of the few to help and a friendship develops that blossoms into a romance that will scandalise the town. Director Annabel Jankel has crafted a sensitive adaptation of the Fiona Shaw novel that captures oppressive small town life and the way love has the power to challenge narrow minds and deep-rooted prejudices.

‘Anti-Abortion Camp’ (2016) Brainwashing Stacey, Series 1, episode 2,  BBC Three Television, 24 January 2017. Available at: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04fvzyv (Accessed: 23 February 2019).

Les Miserables (2018) Series 1, episode 5, BBC One Television, 27 January. Available at: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0c1rcs2 (Accessed: 24 February 2019).

MAD Unveils Design for Hainan Science and Technology Museum

Where Nature and Technology Meet

Hainan Science and Technology Museum Design by MAD Architects

MAD Architects, led by Ma Yansong, unveils their design for the Hainan Science and Technology Museum in Haikou City, Hainan. Located on Haikou’s west coast, surrounded by sports stadiums and a National Wetland Park, the museum is MAD’s second major public project in Hainan following the Cloudscape of Haikou, which opened in April 2021. An important science venue and a major tourist attraction for Hainan’s free trade port, the Hainan Science and Technology Museum will break ground in late August 2021 and is scheduled to be completed and open to the public in 2024.

MAD’s design for the museum draws from the site’s dual urban and natural context, one where a “primeval rainforest and technology of the future meet.” Set against the backdrop of a rich tropical rainforest, the museum’s main pavilion is shaped like a cloud in dialogue with nature.

From a distance, the futuristic building appears to emerge from the city, while visitors entering in the museum area witness it floating above the jungle. The museum’s façade of fiber-reinforced plastic makes the building distinctive from both near and afar with its silver, reflective exterior and visionary aesthetic.

Encompassing a total area of 46,528 square meters, the museum will feature 27,782 square meters of above-ground facilities including permanent exhibition space, a planetarium, a giant-screen theater, and a flying theater. The museum’s interior structure consists of three floor-to-ceiling cores, curved trusses, spiral ramps, and a roof, all exposed to achieve harmony between the architectural forms and structural system.

A skylight in the museum’s dome bathes the spacious atrium in natural light, creating a bright and transparent environment. A spiraling, sloping exhibition space ascends from the central hall over five floors, connecting visitors across the museum.

The exhibition experience begins on the fifth floor, where the elevator opens to a 360-degree viewing platform with the sea and cityscape visible in the distance. Visitors on this uppermost floor will begin by exploring the technology and space galleries before proceeding down the ramp to the ocean and life science galleries on the fourth floor, the math and science galleries on the third floor, and the multimedia interactive experience area and children’s playground on the second floor. As visitors travel down the ramp, they can simultaneously enjoy the scenery and the exhibitions, and a gallery running alongside the ramp extends the viewing experience.

Outside, an undulating canopy extends from the main pavilion in all directions to create a space specifically conceived to accommodate the public in Haikou’s humid and rainy climate. The north side of the canopy also hosts the giant screen and flying theater and, in the southwest corner, the planetarium and observatory.

The museum’s various outdoor public spaces, including a crater-like sunken plaza and reflecting pool, offer areas for rest and relaxation. The diversity of the surrounding tropical plants makes this an ideal setting for learning about nature, offering visitors more than simply an exhibition-viewing experience by also providing a pleasant environment to freely enjoy and experience nature.

Once completed, the Hainan Science and Technology Museum will serve as a destination for the exploration of science, technology, and nature, encouraging visitors to seek inspiration from both the urban and natural setting.

China Arrests Celebrity Actor Wang Xuebing for Drug Charges

If you haven’t already heard Wang Xuebing was arrested for suspicion of drug use adding another name to the list of fallen celebrities. Around October last year Chinese authorities ordered the entertainment industry not to show past or future works featuring stars that have been associated with drugs, prostitution, or gambling. This not limited to television, cinema, or online entertainment websites. The arrest has threatened the release of the film “A Fool” that could suffer the loss of over 150 million yuan (USD 23.95 million). However, there have been speculations that the film might still be released this upcoming May. A movie poster was released still showing three of the main leads walking with an empty space in between with only a shadow where Wang Xuebing use to be. Maybe they chose to re-film the scenes featuring Wang Xuebing or use another actor’s face. We’ll just have to wait and see.

What do you think about China’s strict rules against drug use and how it is affecting the entertainment industry?
