  1. 33-year-old mathematician Wang Hong from the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences (CIMS-NYU) has proved the century-old Kakeya conjecture in three dimensions with collaborator Joshua Zahl!

    The problem is rooted in the question: what's the smallest area that an infinitely thin needle can sweep out if it has to be turned to point in every possible direction?

  5. #Wanghong #Urbanism (internet celebrity urbanism): Me and my geographic pals (Amy and Asa) have written a small (5k) piece for the open access Mediapolis Journal on the idea of wanghong urbanism. It's something we've been playing with in our DMs for a while.

    mediapolisjournal.com/2022/11/

    We discuss urban-digital spectacles, relevant in relation to recent events maybe.

    It was aa nice experience publishing with Mediapolis, you should do it too #China #ChinaStudies #DigitalGeography #HumanGeography

  10. Me: Create a #wanghong / #internetcelebrity; it can be more-than-human.

    Students:
    - Llama cafe
    - Lidl
    - Tea house on a mountain
    - Foreign lady who loves #China
    - Tiny pig
    - Bot network
    - Virtual idol
    - Haunted hotel

    Many people wanted more-than-humans. Had to highlight difference between wanghong as 'unique' internet celebrity / #influencer vs #wanghong as repeatable #vibe #aesthetic

  14. Starting "Make-A-#Wanghong Company" (#internetcelebrity) #teaching activity in seminars. The students role play running an #influencer management company in #China and make a strategy document.

    One of the readings I ask them to do is, "Historicising Wanghong economy" by Xiaofei Han:

    tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10

    The activity is inspired by Crystal Abidin's teaching and extended to be a multi-week project:

  18. wallpaper* magazines Chinese version - i think they sold their total Chinese rights to a Chinese publishing "platform" several years ago - is co-producing a #wanghong #influencer #网红 based apartment complex. More wanghong urbanism!

  20. Co-authorship practices: Just about to submit a co-authored paper with two friends, we're examining the idea of 网红城市 wanghong chengshi, or internet celebrity cities, in China. The paper develops the term #wanghong #urbanism (internet celebrity urbanism) and the idea of "urban-digital spectacle" through three case studies. We all did equal work, so what to do about naming order?

    We drew the names out of a bag ☺️

  24. I guess an #introduction : I research the #geography - #humangeography and #digitalgeography - of #China and am working at Leiden university in #Chinastudies .

    I'm currently teaching digital society in contemporary china, china's digital geographies, and strategic communication and china.

    I look at things like #migration, #wechat, #food economies, #wanghong (internet celebrity) urbanism, and broader politics of digital social life.

    Currently confused by Mastodon :3 I also like #boardgames
