Sinica podcast

Posted on 13:31 by Unknown
I'm always looking for good podcasts to listen to in the car or when I'm exercising. Here's one I've been enjoying a lot in the last week:

Sinica podcast

For some reason the podcasts are distributed along with language lessons on iTunes: Popup Chinese (iTunes).

Here's the most recent (June 14) episode:
This week on Sinica, Kaiser Kuo and Jeremy Goldkorn are delighted to host Matthew Niederhauser. A photographer focusing on urban development in China, Matthew has been published in various journals including The New Yorker, National Geographic, The New York Times Magazine, Le Monde, and Time Magazine among others. As Jeremy describes it, his visuals of Beijing and other parts of modern China capture the feeling of a society that operates on a scale both "beautiful and horrifying" at the same time. Matthew is currently working on a project documenting China's megablock urban development project. But all of his work is stunning.
