? Photographer, provocateur, poet : Ren Hang has died at 29 : Shanghaiist
▻http://shanghaiist.com/2017/02/25/ren-hang.php
The news of the death of Ren Hang (任航), a leading photographer of his generation, was met with widespread disbelief in China and around the world on Friday, as art insider and aficionados alike took to Weibo and Twitter to mourn his loss.
The controversial and subversive provocateur is understood to have committed suicide by jumping off a building on Friday morning. He would have turned 30 in March.
Having struggled with debilitating depression for years, Ren turned to poetry to chronicle his battle with the disease. He had often foreshadowed his own death in postings on social media.
“Every year, my wish remains the same: to die earlier,” Ren wrote in a recent post on his Weibo account less than a month ago. “I hope this year, it can become reality.”
In another post in 2014, Ren wrote about the time he almost jumped out from the window of his friend’s apartment.
Un travail où se mêle la provocation et le perfectionnisme technique. Un désir de vie sur papier glacé.
China’s futuristic ’straddling bus’ is actually a thing, goes on its first test run: Shanghaiist
▻http://shanghaiist.com/2016/08/02/straddling_bus_launch.php
After years of waiting, what was once a crazy dream has apparently become reality as China’s infamous “straddling bus” went on its inaugural test run in Qinhuangdao, Hebei province earlier today.
Certes, mais on peut également inverser l’argument : le bus n’est pas gêné, en tout cas beaucoup moins, par la circulation automobile. En fait, cela revient à une ligne de tramway ou de bus en site propre.
En tout cas, c’est sûr, c’est impressionnant : 1200 passagers à 60km/h.

Chine : le bus géant qui évite les embouteillages était une supercherie

Quelques semaines après la présentation d’un prototype roulant du bus enjambeur censé solutionner les problèmes d’embouteillages en Chine, on apprend que le projet serait une coquille vide destinée à lever des fonds auprès d’investisseurs crédules. Pourtant, l’ingénieur à l’origine du concept assure qu’il poursuit l’aventure.

In case people around him were having any doubts about his incredible wealth, one #tuhao went shopping at a Guangzhou mall last week escorted by eight #robot servants.
Some wondered if Wang Sicong, tuhao supreme, son of China’s richest man, could even pull this kind of thing off. Probably not, he’s too busy running up tabs at clubs and buying his dog Apple watches.
