Martial arts exemplify this dynamic by relying on diverse forms of mediation \u2014 from oral formulas and illustrated manuals to modern motion capture \u2014 to demonstrate, transmit, and renew movement. How do these media translate motion and condition what knowledge becomes accessible? How do computational processes mediate this, converting traces into data representations of lived cultural memory? This talk seeks to address these questions from within the practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feb. 27 \/ <strong>Sinotrash Euromaxxing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Dino Ge Zhang (University of Bergen)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mar. 27 \/ <strong>The Three-Body Effect: The New Afterlives of Chinese Science Fiction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Gwenna\u00ebl Gaffric (Universit\u00e9 Jean Moulin Lyon 3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This talk explores Chinese science fiction after 2015, in the wake of the international success of <em>The Three-Body Problem<\/em>.

This mediatic form is defined by the use of a small and horizontal book format, a single image on the page (almost always detached from the text), thin paper and often poor printing (in black, except for the cover).&nbsp;<em>Lianhuanhua<\/em>&nbsp;as the mass-produced comics material in 20th-century China have declined in the 1980s, leaving space for \u201cnew&nbsp;<em>manhua<\/em>\u201d to develop, following the example of comics in Japan. However, the characteristics of&nbsp;<em>lianhuanhua<\/em>&nbsp;are appropriated again on the scene of alternative comics today. This presentation will show how this renewed appropriation of a specific form can channel the expression of a taste of ordinariness in the comics medium. Based mainly on works by Yancong, but also by other alternative authors such as Woshibai, Deng Hao and Fenta, and drawing on concepts developed by comics scholars Greice Schneider and Thierry Groensteen, the presentation will connect contemporary Chinese comics to the idea of the trivial and the ordinary, on the multiple levels of the narration, the graphic realization, as well as the material production and distribution of the comic books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Register for the seminar and subscribe to our newsletter Oct. 26 \/ Title Dr. Carwyn Morris (SOAS) Nov. 26 \/ Circulating the Scene: Collective Meaning-Making in China\u2019s Early Rock Music Magazines Nevin Domer (PhD, Hong Kong Baptist University) Dec. 26 \/ Motion as Archive: En\/Decoding the Body in Martial Arts Dr. Yumeng Hou (National University [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":52,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-conference"],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":7,"label":"conf\u00e9rence"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/2-3-1024x1024.png",1024,1024,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Gr\u00e9goire Bienvenu","author_link":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/?author=2"},"comment_info":0,"category_info":[{"term_id":7,"name":"conf\u00e9rence","slug":"conference","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":7,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":7,"category_count":1,"category_description":"","cat_name":"conf\u00e9rence","category_nicename":"conference","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=61"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":169,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61\/revisions\/169"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/52"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=61"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=61"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccchina.parisnanterre.fr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=61"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
