The Travelogue of Dr. Brain Damages

ARTIST STATEMENT:

In response to increasingly pervasive and draconian online censorship in China, The Travelogue of Dr. Brain Damages examines the role of Kuso culture (惡搞文化/ dtournement) and its impact on Chinese internet.

The Chinese title 腦殘遊記 is a homophonic wordplay to 老殘遊記 (The Travels of Lao Can), a late Qing dynasty novel that fiercely attacks the injustices, corruptions and exposed the hypocrisy of government officials at the time. In an era that internet as a tool for both freedom and suppression, the project questions whether internet in China is an effective tool for social changes by adapting and remixing Chinese netizens meme languages with Western icons.

BACKGROUND:

According to The China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), as of December 2010, China has the highest numbers of internet users in the world totaling 457 millions, which account as only 34.3% of the countrys population.

Since 2002, online independent media and tabloids have played an important role in political discourse within Chinese society. Many Chinese intellectuals have used the Internet to discuss the possible evolution of Chinese politics.

With the soaring growth of internet users in recent years, Internet becomes the major platform for Chinese citizens in exposing corrupt officials scandals (most famously 我爸是李! ((My Dad Is Li Gang!)) incident), discussing current events and commenting on government policies.

In response to the rise of internet freedom, the Chinese government escalates its effort to neutralize critical online opinion. Chinas Internet censorship is regarded by many as the most pervasive and sophisticated in the world. According to a Harvard study, at least 18,000 websites are blocked from within the country.

The first major online censorship measurement is the 金盾工程 (Golden Shield Project) which started in 1998 and began operations in November 2003. Known in the Western world as The Great Firewall of China, the project aims to block content by preventing IP addresses from being routed through and consists of standard firewalls and proxy servers at the Internet gateways.

In 2005, see the beginning of 五毛党 (50 Cents Party). Officially designated as Internet commentators, 50 Cents Party are people hired by the Chinese Government to post comments favorable towards the government policies to skew the public opinion on various Internet message boards. They operate on domestic websites, bulletin board systems, and chatrooms. Their role is to steer the discussion away from anti-party articulations, politically sensitive or unacceptable content and advance the party line of the Communist Party.

In 2009 comes another draconian censorship project- the 绿坝花季 (Green Dam Youth Escort). Green Dam Youth Escort is content-control software for Microsoft Windows operating systems developed in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). Originally under a directive from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) to take effect on 1 July 2009, it was to be mandatory to have either the software pre-installed, or have the setup files on an accompanying compact disc, for all new personal computers sold in mainland China, including those imported from abroad. However, because the proposed policy proved deeply unpopular, mandatory pre-installation has been delayed to an undetermined date. In response, Internet citizens have created a manga-style Moe anthropomorphism named 绿坝 (Green Dam Girl) to parody the pervasive policy.

Also in early 2009, another project namely 整治互网低俗之风专项 (Correct Internet Vulgar Content Special Operation) is implemented by the authorities. As the title of the campaign suggested, more than 1911 websites that included vulgar languages and pornographic materials are ordered to shut down and performed self-censorship. Among the websites being

accused of vulgar are the four biggest Chinese websites- Sina, Sohu, Baidu and Tencent, as well as foreign websites including Google and MSN. Chinese profane languages including 操你媽 (Fuck your Mother) are ordered to be removed entirely from the Chinese internet.

In response to the campaign, Chinese netizens invented 百度十大神 (The Baidu 10 Mythical Creatures). The internet meme initially began as a series of vandalized contributions to Baidu Baike (Chinese version of Wikipedia), through the creation of humorous articles describing a series of fictional creatures, with each animal with names vaguely referring to Chinese profanities (utilizing homophones and characters using different tones). The most notable one is 草泥 Grass Mud Horse which share a similar pronunciation of 操你媽 (Fuck Your Mother). Almost overnight, Chinese internet users started substituting the profanities with the mythical creatures and a widespread internet meme phenomenon was born. Grass Mud Horse has since become the icon of citizens resistance to censorship.

In February 2011, inspired by and named after the Jasmine Revolution in Tunisia, anonymous call for a 中國茉莉花革命 (Chinese Jasmine Revolution) in Chinas major cities was made online, first on the Boxun.com website, run by overseas dissidents, and then on Twitter. The initial call for protest began on 19 February 2011 when 12 to 13 cities were suggested. The Boxun.com appeal called for protests to take place each weekend, arguing that sustained action will show the Chinese government that its people expect accountability and transparency that doesnt exist under the current one-party system.

In response to the Jasmine Revolution, worlds largest mobile phone operator China Mobile and state-owned China Unicom blocked the word jasmine. Searches for jasmine were also blocked on Chinas largest microblog, Sina Weibo, and status updates with the word on Chinese social networking site Renren were met with an error message and a warning to refrain from postings with political, sensitive or other inappropriate content.

Since the word Jasmine was forbidden in the Chinese blogosphere, millions of netizens used the term 兩會 (Two Conferences) instead, a widely used expression in the official news originally pointing to the two conferences Fourth Session of the Eleventh National Peoples Congress and Fourth Session of the Eleventh CPPCC happening in March in Beijing.

Since late February, about 35 human rights activists and lawyers were arrested or detained by authorities, five people were charged with inciting subversion of state power, and up to 200 people are subject to reinforced supervision or house arrest. Among them are leading Sichuan human rights activist 陈卫 (Chen Wei), Tiananmen Square protest student leader 丁矛 (Ding Mao), well-known blogger 冉云 (Ran Yunfei), and 滕彪 (Teng Biao) of 公盟 (Open Constitution Initiative OCI).

The highest-profile arrest is Ai WeiWei, who was taken into police custody on 3 April in Beijing. In April, 2011, hackers attack online petition platform Change.org in the wake of a campaign calling for the release of Chinese artist and activist Ai WeiWei. The petition has attracted more than 130,000 signatures, including many from leading museums such as the Guggenheim, MoMA and Tate Modern.

   神州天朝勒戈壁市某山寨酒厂- 神州 (China),  妈的 (The Celestial Empire- an ancient name for China. Recently, netizens have used the term sarcastically to refer to China under the current government.

Sensitive words in China are names of politicians, religious movements (like Falun Gong), events like (The thirty-fifth of May), and subversive online terms (like Grass-Mud Horse).  加倍过滤 means extreme distilled (filtered). The phrase means the sensitive words are being extremely filtered.

It is produced by 功夫网名商出品 (Kung Fu Net Famous Trademark- In Chinese, the first letter of each word in kung fu net are GFW. GFW is an abbreviation of The Great Firewall of China. Thus the kung fu net is the internet as it exists after it has been kung fu-ed by the Chinese government.) The slogan of the cigarette is 纵横天朝 自由奔放 (Roam in The Celestial Empire with openness and freedom).

The side of the package contains the following Chinese message:

内含三聚氰胺,让领导先吸。未经自我审查,
饱满醇逸,手感舒适。吸后海阔天空,高瞻远瞩,
让您热情洒脱地实事求是,开胸验肺,鸣真象。

Contains Melamine (the adulterant in 2008 Chinese Poison Milk Scandal), suitable to Let the Leaders smoke first a pun on
让领导先走 (In 1994, Karamay (克拉), Xinjiang, a fire broke out in a theater in which 1000 children were watching a special variety performance. As the fire spread, a woman ordered loudly, Everyone sit down. Dont move. Let the leaders leave first! (大家坐下,不要动,让领导先走). The fire resulted in 325 deaths, 288 of whom were children.

It has not been 自我审查 (Self Censored). Full bodied taste with great hand feel. After smoking the sky and ocean open up, and one can climb high and see very far away.

Let you passionately perform the followings:

   实事求是 Seek Truth From Facts (a historically established expression and a key element of Maoism, first quoted by Mao Zedong during a speech at the Sixth National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party in 1938, in reference to pragmatism. Beginning in 1978, it was further promoted by Deng Xiaoping as a central ideology of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and applied to economic and political reforms thereafter.)

   开胸验肺 Thoracotomy (Open chest to inspect lungs) This medical procedure was immortalized in internet discourse after Zhang Haichao underwent the procedure to prove that he had lung cancer after spending two years petitioning the government. After an outpouring of online support, Zhang was awarded 615,000 RMB in workers compensation.

   鸣真象 (Dont understand the actual situation) has a similar pronunciation of . This stock phrase is often used by Chinese government and official media to describe participants in mass incidents such as riots and protests. The phrase is controversial because it suggests that those who participant in mass incidents do so not because of any real grievances, but because they have been duped by a small number of those with ulterior motives.

Hello Deng XiaoPing, you are very open!

小平 (Deng XiaoPing), who served as the Paramount leader of the Peoples Republic of China from 1978 to 1992, was generally credited with developing China into one of the fastest growing economies in the world for over 30 years and raising the standard of living of hundreds of millions of Chinese. He is considered the architect of a new brand of socialist thinking, having developed Socialism with Chinese characteristics and led Chinese economic reform through a synthesis of theories that became known as the socialist market economy. Deng opened China to foreign investment, the global market, and limited private competition. Deng enjoyed immense popularity in modern day China.

In 小平您好, 您好开放!, Deng is casted as 34 different influential and iconic Western musicians along with the Father of Chinese Rock 崔健 (Cui Jian). Here are the Western musicians list in alphabetical order: Angus Young (AC/DC), Axl Rose (Guns n Roses), Beatles, Billie Holiday, Bob Marley, Bono, Bootsy Collins, Cher, David Bowie, Dee Snider (Twisted Sister), Dolly Parton, Elton John, Elvis Presley, Flava Flav (Public Enemy), Gene Simmons (Kiss), George Clinton (Parliament and Funkadelic), James Brown, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison (the Doors), Joe Strummer (The Clash), Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), Little Richard, Madonna, Marilyn Manson, Michael Jackson, Ramones, Ray Charles, Run DMC, Sid Vicious (Sex Pistol), Snoop Dog, Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, and Willie Nelson.

The background music is a disco version of patriotic Chinese song 血染 (Blood-stained Glory). Originally used to commemorate those who died during Sino-Vietnamese War, the song instead became popular for its commemoration of those who died during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.

Below is the English translation of the lyrics:

Perhaps Ill bid farewell and never to return, can you comprehend? Do you understand?
Perhaps I will fall and never to rise again. Do you still want to wait forever?
If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the flag of the Republic has our blood-stained glory.
If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the flag of the Republic has our blood-stained glory.

Perhaps my eyes will shut and never open again, will you understand my sunken emotions?
Perhaps I will sleep forever, never able to wake up. Will you believe that I have been transformed into mountains?
If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the soil of the Republic contains the love we have given.
If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the soil of the Republic contains the love we have given.

If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the flag of the Republic has our blood-stained glory.
If its to be like this, dont you be sad, the flag of the Republic has our blood-stained glory. Blood-stained Glory.
