The IT people who have made such an effort to know and understand computer technology. They are frustrated that you cannot use Facebook, Twitter and YouTube in China. They are the first to recognize that the situation is terrible.

Every day I'm learning something new from the practice. It's very rewarding.

The media is the message. It carries the full intention and the meaning. Once you change it...it's very disturbing.

I don't think my father had a direct influence on me, but I do think, more or less, I was influenced by his independent individualism. And the kind of condition he had when he was in this society - the kind of mistreatment society gave him.

China didn't want to lose the cutting edge of technology. So the idea of having a Sina Weibo was an attempt to compete with Twitter. However, it has no soul - which is freedom of expression. Nevertheless, I think the government regrets having Sina Weibo, but they cannot shut it down. That would definitely be suicidal.

The [China] government has improved in the last years. Of course, the structure is still the same; there's still a one-party system and strong censorship.

I don't think China has professional museums - not in the past, present, or near future.
