Is there really that much

17、 difference between folk in the city and folk in smaller places?” says Lai, whose works have ranged from theater, opera to film and television over the past 30 years.The failure of Menage a 13, a love-triangle comedy was more perplexing for Lai because when it debuted in Taiwan in 1999 it became an

18、instant hit.He then inquired of one of his friends who worked in the theater.“We thought we were not allowed to laugh,” the friend said. “Someone said the artists are very serious and you dont want to distract them while they are performing. So whether its funny or not we just kept everything bottle

19、d up inside.”Lai then decided gently to let locals know that if they felt like laughing, they should go ahead and do so, and not force anything. The play soon became phenomenal in the small town, and extra nights were scheduled.“People really got into it, and they even talked about the play in very

20、profound terms.” Huichang has a population of about 520,000, which “is a place that would never stage the level of theater that can be seen in Beijing or Shanghai”, Lai says, “and a touring group going to the small town is barely imaginable.” However, Lai has a very personal stake in Huichang.

That is what Tokyo-based art group TeamLab is offering people in Shenzhen.When a plate of food is placed on t

25、he table, sensors (传感器) recognize it and project real-time animations on it, accompanied by matched animations covering the walls and a long dining table. During the 11 -course kaiseki (怀石料理) dining experience, the scenes change based on each dish offered, including blazing (发光的) maples, waterfalls,

26、 bamboo forests and yellow reeds (芦苇). People can interact with the animation by either touching them or moving their plates. For instance, birds fly away from ones dish to trees on the wall if a person touches it. The restaurant offers eight seats per meal. Each is priced at 2,500 yuan ($ 378).“The

27、 challenge lies in the recognition part: how to let our system accurately recognize plates, wineglasses and customers belongings put on a table, like phones, keys or wallets,” says Toshiyuki Inoko.

28、 viewers, allowing them to interact with each other,” the 40-year-old artist adds.Inoko, who founded TeamLab in 2001, says the world is changing and peoples traditional opinion on art should also change. “Art needs to be interactive,” he says.

29、eople prefer to appreciate art by themselves or in a quiet environmentInoko works need many peoples involvement. “All my works are exploring the relationship between humans and nature, as well as how people should get along with the world,” he adds.

37、nd miles away, so a persons health can be monitored anytime and anywhere. The secret behind the high - tech is an innovation (创新) called the triboelectric nanogenerator (纳米发电机).

38、ctric signals.This technology is also potentially transformative in the field of electronic devices. For example, page-flipping glasses, which allow people to turn pages on a cellphone with a blink of an eye, have also become a reality. On a small scale, nanogenerators can be used to power portable

39、devices. There are now nanogenerating shoes, suits, bicycles and carpets, all of which gather the mechanical energy people produce when they walk, run or cycle to power lights, monitor body indicators, and record the track of movements while providing energy for themselves.Ashutosh Tiwari, secretary
