Spotlight Taiwan
Leiden University's Asiascape.org is an international research coalition in the rapidly emerging fields of cyber culture (New Media, Convergence Culture, Video Games and other related media, such as fan-culture) and animanga (Anime and Manga), especially as they relate to (or originate from) East Asia.
In 2014 Asiascape.org will kick start the incorporation of Taiwan in its research agenda and team up with the Political and Philosophical Arts Initiative (PAI) to provide the foundations for a stable incorporation into the research and teaching as part of the new Spotlight Taiwan Project, an agreement between Leiden University’s Faculty of Humanities and the government of Taiwan. |
Activities
Under the agreement with Taiwan’s Ministry of Culture, Asiascape.org will host a variety of events highlighting Taiwanese modern culture in the first half of 2014:
We will start the Spotlight Taiwan Project off with a Sampler Event on Monday 2 December 2013 in which you will be presented with Asiascape's view on Taiwan. |
