Other unreconstructed residential neighborhoods ate faced with the rngent need to improve their living conditions. Based on the current analysis of the status of protection of residential historic blocks in Qiina, a protection and renewal mode of self-organization was proposed in this paper for the Si Street and Xinanying in Nantong Qty in response to the problems facing them. Combined with the cases of protection and renewal of histone blocks on botii sides of Taiwan Strait, opinions and suggestions were put forward for Si Street and Xinanying in order to better guide die implementation of the protection of tiiese historic blocks, effectively improve tiie living conditions of the residents and make the neighborhoods protected in a true, complete and long-term manner.展开更多

When producing Antigone in 2001, Lu was challenged by his critics in three aspects： （1） the tradition of tai-yu theatre of Tainan Jen Theatre and that of Western plays, （2） audience reception in Taiwan, and （3） the advantages and disadvantages of integrating tai-yu with Western classic texts. In spite of these criticisms on his theatrical productions, Lu has continued helping Tainan Jen Theatre transform into a professional theatrical troupe since he became an artistic director in 2002. By analyzing how and why Lu staged his The Witch Sonata--Psalm of Macbeth in the socio-historical context of intercultural adaptation, I propose to re-revaluate Lu＇s artistic contribution to the theatrical development in the southern part of Taiwan. I would argue that Lu is not only challenging Taiwan Residents reading of Shakespeare but also exploring the possibilities of tai-yu＇s theatricality, in a view to bringing new life to Taiwan＇s intercultural theatre.展开更多

Taiwan, this article will investigate how they de-contextualize Greek Epic Iliad with an eclectic collage of the tropes of Greek epic, the techniques of environmental theater and Taiwan Residents local opera, and the aesthetics of Taiwan Residents indigenous rituals and Pili Puppetry. It will discuss how the performers transform Greek epic into a Taiwan Residents allegory in search of Taiwan Residents cultural roots and identities. Furthermore, in the cultural encounter between the East and the West, multiple folds of significance will be explored through their hybridized performance genres and rituals as well as symbolic interaction in various performance venues with different historical and cultural legacies.展开更多

As the trend of localisation in these ten years becomes obvious, several localised performances are created; however, the composers in China do not understand the music culture in Taiwan, so some interesting phenomenon can be found between an imaginary Taiwan from their viewpoints and the real culture in Taiwan. The Sorceress Bride is a performance which adapted so-called the aboriginal tune in 2012, and it arises several issues for further discussion.展开更多

As technology developed, this tool gradually fell out of use in Taiwan. Yet for the older generation, the tool remains a symbol of the belief that hard work will lead to prosperity. This paper aimed to invoke these memories and beliefs through the design of an innovative museum exhibit. To achieve this, we designed a human-computer interface using the form and feel of this important historical artefact. We analyzed the design of this exhibit using the Idea-People-Object-Physical Attract-Engage-Flip （IPOP-AEF） model developed by Pekarik, Schreiber, Hanemann, Richmond, and Mogel （2014）. The designed exhibit ＂Hao Shi Duo Mo＂ was on show in Taiwan in May 2015. It was well-received by visitors, which was likely due to its fulfilment of each of the six elements of the IPOP-AEF model. This analysis serves as valuable reference for exhibition designer and artists.展开更多

The result shows that the Ordos block is a typical moderate-strong earthquake active region where many M_S≥5.0 destructive earthquakes have occurred. The temporal and spatial distribution of earthquakes in the Ordos block is asymmetrical. The temporal distribution of earthquakes shows a periodic characteristic and the activity of earthquakes in the southeastern Ordos block is higher than in the northwest Ordos block. The M_S≥5.0 moderate size earthquakes in the Ordos block are controlled by the M_S≥6.0 earthquake around the Ordos block.展开更多
