I'm really excited to introduce you to a new podcast that I am loving. It is from one of my favorite places on earth, the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The show is titled Immaterial, 5000 Years of Art, One Material at a Time.
Hosted by Camille Dunji, each episode examines a material of art, clay, stone, trash, and even intangible things like space. You'll gain a deep understanding of what these materials make us feel and reveal about our history and our humanity.
You'll also get a sense of the meaningfulness of these materials in art and how to see them in a whole new way. To listen to Immaterial, just search for Immaterial in your favorite podcast app. That's Immaterial, 5000 years of art, one material at a time. I love this show and I think you will too.
Weiwei, minÀ ymmÀrrÀn, ettÀ sinÀ olet aika hyvÀ Blackjack-pelaaja. MinÀ olin aiemmin hyvÀ. Kun olin melko raskas, olin melko hyvÀ. MinÀ löysin tietoa, ettÀ BlackjackChamp.comissa sinÀ olet kÀsitellyt jÀrjestelmÀkirjoissa pÀÀosassa työkaluista pelaajana.
Weiwei, sinun huomattavasti uusi memoiri, 1000 vuotta ilmoituksista ja syrjyistÀ, on vuosikauden aikana Chinaa epikirja, joka on kertonut perheesi tarinaa. Aloitit kirjan kuvaamalla tapahtumia, jotka tapahtuivat 3.2.2011, kun olit valmiina ulos Beijingin puolustuspaikasta.
SiinÀ poliisi jÀÀtyi sinuun, laittoi huonon pÀÀlle ja rikkoi sinua jÀrjestelmÀssÀ. Seuraavan 81 pÀivÀn jÀlkeen eikÀ kukaan tiedÀ, missÀ olit, tai jos olit edes elÀmÀssÀ. Arrestoinnin aikana, olitko sinulla mitÀÀn tietoa siitÀ, millaista asiaa olit syyttyÀ?
During this time you were subjected to psychological torture. You were held captive in a 280 square foot room. Two armed guards surrounded you and monitored every move that you made. They watched you eat, sleep, shower.
ja jos ne eivÀt olleet tarpeeksi, he myös ajoittivat kaikkia nÀitÀ toimintoja, mikÀ tarkoittaa, ettÀ jos puhut liian nopeasti, sinun tÀytyi pysyÀ nukkumaan ja vettÀ, ennen kuin voit pysyÀ itseÀsi ulos ja laittaa kotiasi. Onko todellista, ettÀ sinun pitÀisi edes pystyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ kotiasi?
Olet kertonut, ettÀ koko elÀmÀ, muun muassa nukkumisen jÀlkeen, oli vÀhentÀnyt, ja elÀmÀ ei nÀyttÀnyt olevan niin erilaista kuin elÀmÀ. Miten olit kÀsitellyt tÀtÀ psykologisesti silloin? Luulen, ettÀ minulla on vielÀ paljon haastavaa nÀhdÀ, miten tÀmÀ tilanne liittyy minuun.
Olin epÀilemÀllÀ tunnistamaan mitÀÀn vÀÀrÀÀ, kun olit kylmÀnnyt ja mennyt niin kauas, ettÀ sotilaat sanoisivat, ettÀ vaikka he vÀlttÀisivÀt sinua, sinun positiivisi ja poliittisi ei muuttaisi. Oliko 81 pÀivÀn aikana jotain, jolloin ajattelit, ettÀ olisit kylmÀnnyt?
Kun olit sydÀmessÀ, ajattelit paljon isÀsi Ai Qingista, joka oli sydÀmessÀ yksi vuosi myöhemmin kuin olit sydÀmessÀ, kun Chairman Mao aloitti poliittinen initiatiivi, jonka tehtÀvÀ oli perustaa taiteilijoita Suomesta, jotka kritisoivat hallintoa. TÀmÀ kuulosti isÀsi, joka oli yksi Suomessa tÀrkeimmistÀ poetista.
First he was sent to an icy wilderness in far northeast China. And then, when you were ten, he was banished to a location known as Little Siberia. Where is Little Siberia?
As your mother was leaving, you didn't beg her to stay. In your book you stated, I held my tongue, neither saying goodbye nor asking if she was coming back. You were only 10 years old. Did you think that you were ever going to see her again?
Se oli todella haastavaa, sillÀ se oli pohja, joka teki hÀnet itseÀnsÀ iloinen. HÀnen työnsÀ oli todella originaalinen, mutta se oli myös todella riskiÀ. Sitten kirjoitat, kuinka aiemmin vain pentasyllabinen tai heptasyllabinen hymyinen versi klasiikkalaisessa kielessÀ oli hyvÀ pohja. Miten isÀsi aloitti ensin hÀnen työnsÀ?
Despite your dad's fame, your father had a really turbulent upbringing. A fortune teller told his parents that the newborn child was at odds with their fate. And if they raised him at home, he would be the death of them.
So they understood this to mean that the baby should be cared for by others. And they wrapped your father tightly inside a comforter embroidered with the words 10,000 joys and sent him to another family to be raised. And he's written quite, quite powerful poetry about these experiences. Did your father ever feel that he had a home?
Kertoisit siitÀ, miten elÀmÀsi tuli kurssiin terveydenhuollon koulutukseen. Haluan kuvitella sitÀ, mitÀ elÀminen tehtiin yleisölle. Suomessasi oli yksiköi, joka tuli sopimuun. LÀmpösi oli rauhattu jÀÀtöplattformi, jossa oli viikkoja, jossa oli yksiköi, joka tuli sopimuun, jossa oli ilmaa.
The paraffin lamp you used inside made your nostrils black with soot. Rats were a constant problem, as were lice. Your dad's job for much of this time was cleaning out communal toilets, which consisted of holes over a cesspit.
And you write, in winter this involved breaking up the frozen feces into manageable pieces and shifting them out of the latrine one by one. One of China's most famous poets, most talented poets, cleaning a latrine and removing feces. Yet, you said that it was a hard time, but there was also a lot of joy.
Sorry, I only can share with you. It's legit. Thank you. Your father was forbidden to write for 20 years. From the time he was 47 until the time he was 67, some of what could have been the most fertile time of his career. He was not even allowed to touch a pen.
