Quiet moments from Crete. I went to see some Ancient Greek ruins, wrote some postcards and browsed through the bookshops. Feeling well rested and ready for the next academic year! :')

Fresh bizarre example of ‘ancient China’ just dropped. I was reading an article about architectural heritage tourism in Macau and the author described colonial architecture in the city from the 16th century onwards as ‘ancient colonial buildings’. How is this real? So the idea of ‘ancient China’ even permeates into periods that are obviously within the colonial i.e. modern era. I bet they wouldn’t describe buildings in Portugal from the same period like this but only do it here because the use of ‘ancient’ for pre-20th century China is discursively mandatory.

Also, I don’t think describing mainland Chinese tourists as ‘mindless’ for preferring to take pictures at tourist sites rather than learning about ‘deep history’ (which is colonial and traumatic) is something that can ever be considered in a ‘non-judgmental’ way as the author suggests, especially since it fits nicely into racialized ideas about Chinese people as mindless consumers.

Had a fucking bonkers good time at the IAAPA expo today & wound up winning a Tab Lite in a raffle drawing among the mountain of other free goodies I had forced on me by vendors throughout the day.

& like.

Guess it's good I haven't completely given up on the art thing because it looks like I have a brand new tab to be my travel digital sketchbook heck yeahhhh~
