through feeling cold I recognise my own existence
with laughter beneath the pale moonlight I discover truth.

About Me

My photo
Wei
Taipei, Taiwan
I regard myself as a musicologist, and probably a musician as well, just awarded a doctorate in popular music and currently a postdoctoral fellow and adjunct assistant professor of musicology at National Taiwan University. I hate hot weather and prefer reasonably cold climate, and that's why I once fled from Taiwan to Scotland. Unfortunately, I'm in Taiwan tortured by the heat at the moment.
