It’s my pleasure being invited by the Chinese Sociology Society UK (CSSUK) to share my most recent thoughts about the sound method and ethnographic research on unbuilt infrastructures. The sharing will be in Mandarin Chinese on ZOOM.

🌉It's been a week coming back from InfraNorth’s ‘Beyond Infrastructure? (Un)built Environments in the Anthropocene’ conference in Vienna.
It was such a unique experience. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know so many fantastic anthropologists and geographers who work in the field of infrastructure.

Yesterday, I took part in the roundtable panel discussion on conducting PhD research on Taiwan, held as part of the 2025 SOAS Taiwan Studies Summer School at the @soastaiwanstudies.bsky.social.
It was a truly enriching (and FUN!) experience—many thanks to also my co-panelists - I learned so much!

Highlights of 2025 Annual Conference for the European Association of Taiwan Studies.
I presented (for the first time) my ongoing spin-off research on Kinmen's ghosts and marine debris, met unbelievably intelligent like-minded young scholars (define young!), and enjoyed the amazing Olomouc.

It was a fantastic week at SOAS CTS last week to have Chris Chan speak about his research on arts & politics of cross-strait archipelagic borderland.
This also marked my first-ever chairing for an academic public lecture, and I would like to thank Chris for bringing us such a fantastic talk!
