◤New directions in Cross-Strait relations◢
　
How long can Taiwan afford not to make difficult choices for its future? It is one of the tough questions asked by long-time Taiwan observer and former AIT Chairman Richard C. Bush in his new book. He argues that Taiwan urgently needs to build a consensus and a strategy if it wishes to survive and preserve the good life that it enjoys, for now.

(English is belowed)
最近翻照片翻到了2017年，我最愛的鼓手 Antonio Sánchez 帶著他的樂團 Migration 來台灣 河岸留言 演出，想起了之前我曾經翻譯過他的DVD "Master Series"的一段話，非常感動且給我很大的能量，但之前有被盜過帳號都不見了，於是決定再找出來聽打一次重新翻譯分享給大家。

也再次謝謝 河岸留言可以邀請這麼棒的樂團來台灣！！

如果不知道Antonio Sanchez是誰的，他是Pat Metheny band的鼓手，葛萊美獎得了好幾座，同時已經得了奧斯卡等N個獎項的電影 Birdman 「鳥人」，這部整部電影配樂只有鼓聲，所有鼓也都是他錄的。

-----------------------------------------
一些來自 Antonio Sanchez 對鼓手們的金玉良言 (出自他的 “Master Series” DVD )

最後一點我想要說的是，許多關於跟音樂以及音樂家共事的態度。

嗯，當我還在成長時，我總是夢想著可以在很棒、高聳、最大的場館，跟著大型樂團，以及最棒的音樂家們一起演出。 這夢想當然很棒，但你總是要從某些名不經傳的小地方當作你的起點。

突然之間，我意識到我正在小酒吧、小俱樂部、或是某家餐館、某個婚禮場演出 — 而且沒有人在專注聽你演奏，那時我覺得很沮喪而且覺得被冒犯了，舉例來說。我以前做很多婚禮場，而且在上面演奏「熱愛105度C的你」(註一) 上百次，演奏時心裡想「我在這邊銃三小？」、「快讓我離開這吧，殺了我吧，我可以演比這個帥一百倍以上的曲目！」於是，我在演奏時只想打卡下班，就沒有把我的專注放在音樂上面。

又或者某天，我在某間小酒吧演出，正在演奏搖擺樂，或者一些我真的很喜歡的音樂風格，但沒有人在注意聽我們演奏，大家都在看大銀幕上的棒球比賽。 我就想說「好吧，反正沒人在聽，我就把我昨天練功的招式都丟進去音樂吧。」而那時我只是胡亂的丟我練過的招式，並沒有在那個音樂裡面，我也沒有在聽其他音樂家演奏了什麼，不過也許其他音樂家有聽到我做的事情。

後來，當我幸運地得到了更多演出機會，而這些場合開始需要更高的難度，我了解到我的專心程度並不足以支撐這些高強度的場合。

舉例來說，當我在九零年代晚期開始跟Niels Pedersen一起做巡迴，那是個非常高強度的演奏，它是個三重奏，每次演出的晚上，我的腦袋好像快爆炸一樣，因為我並不習慣如此需要長時間專注程度的高難度演出，我才了解到我浪費了太多時間以前演奏的時候沒有把專注力放在音樂上。

我覺得，如果你有兩隻手、兩隻腳、而且可以演奏樂器，你已經夠幸運了。而我認為如果你現在正在某間酒吧、某個餐館、或是某個婚禮場作演出，而你可以把每一場演出當作好像是全世界最棒的演出、在最大、最美麗的場館，跟著最棒的音樂家一起演出，那我認為你正走在對的路上。因為你有把你的心放在音樂裡面，而且你給這些音樂跟音樂家他們所渴望的最棒的尊重，那麼我可以向你保證接下來會有很棒的事情降臨在你身上。

這就是我想說的，非常謝謝你們今晚的蒞臨，希望我們下次可以再見。

註一：原文是說演奏「La Mecarena」，９０年代的當紅歌曲。這邊為了年輕讀者，使用較貼近現在的105度C的你。

註二：Niels Pedersen 全名是 Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (N.H.O.P.)，是從70-90年代活躍的傳奇的低音提琴手，演奏速度可以超級超級快又具備非常豐富的音樂性。

英文原文，因為是用聽打的，也許有少部分錯誤

Recently I found a picture that my favorite drummer
Antonio Sanchez and his band "Migration" touring in Taipei in 2017. And few years ago I've seen his DVD and felt so inspired from these words. I decided to translate it into Chinese to share with other Chinese drummers.

There's maybe little mistakes because English is not my mother language.

---------------------------------
Some wise words from my all-times favorite drummer Antonio Sanchez from his DVD - "Master Series".

And the last things I wanna said, hmm, has a lot to do with attitude to work with music and musicianships. Hmm, When I was growing up, I was always dreaming of playing in a nice, tall, the biggest stadium and the biggest band with the greatest musicians in this world. And that’s great except that we all have to start somewhere. And I, all of a sudden, I was playing in a little bar, or small pub, or some restaurant, or a wedding where nobody was paying an attention. And I really felt depressed and I felt violated. And for example, I’ve been played for a wedding gig, and I would be playing “La Marcaena” for a hundred times , and I would be like “What am I doing here ?”, “Get me out of here, shoot me, this is not for me, I’m so much better than this !”
And I was not putting my heart into it at all. When the next day, I would play in some small bar, I was playing maybe swing or something that I really like, but nobody was paying an attention. Everybody was looking at the screen, the baseball game. And I would be like “Well, nobody is paying an attention, then I just gonna playing practice whatever I was working on yesterday.” And I was NOT in the moment, I was not listening to what the other guys were playing. And maybe the other guys were listening to me.

So, when I luckily started getting better and better opportunities music-wise, and the situations start getting a little more the manling. I realized that I did not have the concentration I took for me to be able to deal with some of the situations. Uh, for example when I started to play with Niels Pedersen in the late 90s, it was a very tense gig , it was just a trio, and every night I would end would headache , because I was not used to have a lot of concentration and focusing that much, for that amount of time.
I realize that I’ve wasted a lot of time not being into the music not putting my heart into it. Because, I mean I really feel like if a, you have two arms, two legs, and you are able to play , you are lucky already. And I think if you are playing in some small restaurant, or wedding, or whatever. You treat that situation like the best gig in the world in the most beautiful opera house or the biggest stadium, and you treat you felt the musicians like the greatest musicians you could play with. I think you are on the right path. You put your heart into it, and you give the music and musicians the respect they deserved. Then I can assure you really good things are gonna happen to you. So that’s it for me, thank you so much for coming, hope see you next time.

#NFTsummer A few weeks ago, we interviewed Xixi Huang (AW#17) in Mandarin and as the AppWorks Fellow who helps us out on the blockchain side, Xixi has a lot of ideas that are worth sharing to a bigger audience. Here's his interview in English:

西西 (Xixi) 黃士晉 is an AppWorks #17 alumni and co-founder of Rydeit. His mission is to bring the applications of blockchain to everyday life because he believes that blockchain can make the world a more fair and better place. As an AppWorks Fellow, he is responsible for guiding founders to think about blockchain and providing insights on blockchain-related investment deals. Before AppWorks, he led his previous team to build more than 10 dapps, including famous games in Taiwan such as 柚子打魚 and Shrimp.Finance. Within a month of launching these games, they had amassed over NT$ 100M (~US$ 3.5M) in transactions. His favorite pastime is traveling with his grandma, and his ultimate goal is to persuade her to buy Bitcoin!

Check out what Xixi has to say about blockchain and NFTs.

#NFTevolution

I started to learn how to write smart contracts in 2016, and learned the entire logic of ERC-20 for tokens and ERC-721 for NFTs. While I was learning about NFTs, I realized that the combination of NFTs with video games was very fitting. In video games, the treasure and equipment you collect becomes virtual assets as NFTs. And the process of using smart contracts to exchange items was very efficient on the blockchain.

At the end of 2018, I designed and created a zombie video game, integrating the concept of playing and drawing cards and packs. Within a pack were 3 NFTs with zombies on them. As a player, the more cards with zombies you collect, the higher your score, and the more tokens you can ultimately earn. From this game, I got connected to other game manufacturers and publishers who were also interested in creating virtual game assets through NFTs. We all had the same idea -- NFTs can bring more meaning and value to the players.

However at the time, many people in the market still believed that tokens and games were riddled with fraud. Since the lifecycle of video games can be short, many traditional gaming companies in the end didn’t find it worthwhile to learn how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their games.

While the nature of NFTs hasn’t changed, the market has evolved. People’s curiosities are growing, more applications are being developed, and more creators are cropping up. I think now is the right time to start talking to companies about how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their businesses or games.

#NFTplayground

I think there are many opportunities to start a business these days, and people who want to start one should think about coming to blockchain. Not only is there a huge opportunity but the possibilities are endless. And within blockchain, NFTs currently offer the biggest opportunity. However, it can also pose a new challenge to the team’s endurance, because while easy to obtain traction and users with NFTs, the challenge lies in retaining them.

Similar to other blockchain applications in the past few years, when a new concept is invented, it’ll be flushed with many early users. However, because the surrounding infrastructure wasn’t in place, it was difficult for founders to make valuable extensions or applications. And many of these users don’t actually care about these blockchain products and they are only trying to leverage the ecosystem to make a quick buck. Once they earn all that they can, they will move on to another project.

Right now working on NFTs, you can collect a lot of data in a short amount of time and also make some income to keep you afloat. Founders should seize this opportunity to understand these users, then modify and optimize both their products and mentality to retain them.

Since there’s no geographical restriction on blockchain, I would encourage founders to look beyond your country and region in expanding your NFT products. Also, since blockchain is closely related to finance, if you don’t have a good pricing strategy (or token economics) for your NFT products, the prices might fluctuate greatly. You need to be prepared and remind your users of the risks, otherwise you’ll ultimately get scolded!!

#NFTera

This year, I finally consider myself an official NFT collector. I pay special attention to NFTs with contemporary significance, such as Hashmasks. It signals to the public that NFTs are not just for collecting but that game mechanics can also be applied to interact with users. If we look back ten years from now I’m confident to say that the project that really brought the NFT wave in 2021 would be Hashmasks.

In addition to veteran projects like Hashmasks, other collections I care a lot about are related to Metaverse, such as The Sandbox. I believe that the world will become more and more decentralized and virtual. It is very likely that the next generation will be immersed in a virtual world like Ready Player One, so I am also very optimistic about NFTs in digital worlds like The Sandbox.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to NFTs. Right now, few NFTs are connected with our daily lives. For example, I bought a Hashmask. If I want to show it in my apartment, I might still need to print it out. In the future, how will we connect NFTs to the physical world? I believe they can be applied in many ways, including frames, wallets, cars, house deeds, leases, etc. These products in daily life can be combined with NFTs. We just haven’t opened our imagination yet. It’s hard to imagine that only 20 years ago we were having a hard time believing in the power of the internet.

The development of science and technology not only relies on infrastructure, but also the user's learning curve. The world needs to talk about blockchain more, so that everyone will gradually become familiar with it and it’ll continue to evolve.

If you're a founder working in blockchain or NFTs, welcome to apply to AppWorks >> https://bit.ly/3w0WyIl

OUR SIX YEAR OLD'S BIRTHDAY IN JAPAN | HIS FIRST POKEMON (GREAT REACTION!!!)

We had a little family birthday party in Japan for my six-year-old son, and he got hist first Pokemon ever!!! We were actually not aware that he loved Pokemon so much, but when one of his friends gave him a Pokemon card deck, his reaction was absolutely adorably!! I can hardly believe that he is six years old already. We love celebrating birthdays as a family, but obviously this year, we couldn't go out anywhere. So we picked a little yakiniku Japanese restaurant near our home and went to dinner VERY early to avoid any crowds. In case you are not familiar with yakiniku, it is actually Korean BBQ. But there are a lot of yakiniku restaurants in Japan. So if you are ever visiting Japan, I HIGHLY recommend you visit a yakiniku Japanese restaurant. Eating out in Japan is so much fun. And eating out at a Japanese yakiniku restaurant is a great experience. Please do try it if you come to Japan.

We are an American and Japanese bicultural family, and we upload videos about our life in Japan. I (Aishah) am American and my husband (Taka) is Japanese. Our children are bicultural (multicultural, if you factor in the fact that I'm half Mexican!). If you're new to our channel and want to follow our life in Japan in English (or you want to learn English with us by watching our videos with subtitles, please subscribe to our channel!

英語と日本語で６歳の誕生日!!! ｜国際結婚のナイトルーティン｜バイリンガル子育て｜オンライン英会話｜お家英語｜TOEICリスニング｜TOEIC勉強｜バイリンガルベイビー


「英語と日本語で６歳の誕生日!!! ｜国際結婚のナイトルーティン｜バイリンガル子育て｜オンライン英会話｜お家英語｜TOEICリスニング｜TOEIC勉強｜バイリンガルベイビー」という動画をアップしました。英語と日本語で子育てしている（バイリンガル）息子のアレックスが６歳になりました！！本来だったらどこかに行きたかったですが、今年は遠くに行かず割と近くにある焼肉屋に行ってきました。私たち（国際結婚）、結婚してもうすぐ１１年目を迎えますし、息子も６歳になり、娘ももうすぐ３歳になります。時間は本当にあっという間に経ちますね。動画をみてくださっている皆さんがいつもあたたかくて応援してくださり本当にありがとうございます！

バイリンガルベイビーの動画はほぼ全て英語と日本語の字幕があり、オンライン英会話として使って頂いてもいいですし、オンライン英会話だけではんく、ただ、海外の子育て（アメリカ子育て・英語　子育て）に興味のある方もぜひ観ていただければ嬉しいです。因みに、オンライン英会話でバイリンガルベイビーの動画を使われている方の話しを聞いたところ、英会話のシャドーイングとして動画を使われている方が多く、もしくは、聞き流し英語のように使っている方も多いみたいです。ぜひいろんな方法で使ってみてください！

では、「英語と日本語で６歳の誕生日!!! ｜国際結婚のナイトルーティン｜バイリンガル子育て｜オンライン英会話｜お家英語｜TOEICリスニング｜TOEIC勉強｜バイリンガルベイビー」をお楽しみください！！


国際結婚の我が家の様々なエピソードにご興味のある方はぜひ、チャンネル登録をお願いします！
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHBnOMB61Xe9eT4oSs3B_NQ?sub_confirmation=1

《この動画をオンライン英会話とか英語の勉強にどうやって使う？》
「聞き流し英語」的な感じでこの動画を是非見てください。私達のチャンネルで、実際にネイティブが使っている英語の文法も使っていますし、変にスピードも落としていませんので、このスピードにある程度慣れてたら、海外に行ったらばっちりなはずです！

ですので、是非こちらの動画で英語のリスニングの勉強していただければと思います！

なお、英語のリスニング力アップのためのこの動画のベストな活用方法があります。４ステップ法
①まず、動画を最初見る時に、日本語の字幕を見ながら楽しく動画を最初から最後まで見る。このステップは「英語を勉強する」ステップではなく、単純に「動画の内容」と「ストーリーの展開」を覚えるステップです。つまり、英語・日本語関係なく、この動画で何が起きているかを理解することがステップ１です。ここであまり英語の勉強を気にしなくてもいいです。

②もう一度動画を見るけど、今度は、各フレーズ（気になるフレーズ）を１つ１つ丁寧に聞いて、英語と日本語の字幕（両方とも）一緒に読んで、英語のフレーズ（英語の表現）や言い方を意識する。一時停止したり、巻き戻したりすると理解しにくい英語の表現を理解できるかもしれません。信じがたいですが、私達の動画に本当に「知っておくべき英語」が厳選されています。なのでどのフレーズを学んでも損ではありません。「生きた英会話」と思っていただければと思います。

③もう一度動画を見る。今後は、日本語の字幕を絶対に見ないで動画を見る。理解できない場合は、絶対に英語の字幕だけを見る。なので、このステップは、「海外に留学したばかりの人になった気分」。つまり、日本語に頼らないステップ。

④英語の字幕と日本語の字幕、どれも全く読まないでで最初から最後まで動画をもう一度見る。 絶対に、自分の理解度に驚くはずです。１００％は理解できないかもしれないが、聞く前と比較すると本当にビビるぐらい英語力が伸びる。「ええ？これだけで英語力が上がるの？」と思われる方が多いと思うけど、4回も同じ箇所を見ているので、それだけで思っている以上に英語が身についている（同じ歌を４回聞けばなんとなく歌えると一緒）。留学する時に、こういう風にみんな学ぶ。因みに幼児も同じように言語を学ぶ。

この４つのステップを踏んだ後に、もしまだ動画の内容が完璧に理解できないということであれば、リスニング聞き取れなかった箇所だけに戻り、更に２-３回を聞くことがお勧めです。

最後ですが、もし、使っている英語について何か質問があればいつでもコメントで聞いてくださいね。他の視聴者のためにもなるし遠慮なく聞いちゃってください。

Good luck!!!

Not Tonight, It’s not time to leave yet
What immeasurable power must I possess, to get to where you are?

Not Tonight, not this moment
What more must I lose, in order to have you back?

In this moment, I am certain
My heart is pounding wildly, like its bursting out of my chest

It’s not time, not tonight
I can’t leave you now, I can’t leave what I have

還不是時候，還不能離開你
該怎麼竭力狂奔才能奔向你

還不是時候，不該是此刻
還有什麼能失去才能喚回你

此刻的堅定
衝出心臟 不停竄動

還不是時候，還不具任何說服力
足以拋下世界失去你

Not resting on his laurels after the release of English track, While I Can, JJ surprises fans once again with a highly anticipated collaboration with world-renowned electronic dance producer and award winning DJ, Steve Aoki. The latest track, Not Tonight (Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix), is JJ’s first foray into the EDM genre.

The song depicts one’s conflicting struggles—the difficulty in letting go of a loved one, and the difficulty in embracing one’s self. When the struggle is overwhelming and giving up seems the most obvious choice, you harness all the strength you have to softly yet firmly tell yourself, “Not Tonight”. Through JJ’s vocals and Aoki’s DJ-ing, the song showcases a stronger and brighter rhythm of electronic music, with the focus on one’s redemption on that dark night, evoking the psychedelia, sensibility, and the swing of the song.

This is JJ and Steve Aoki’s very first collaborative effort. Through the amalgamation of the Chinese culture’s sensibility and the avant-gardism of the West, the narrative illustrates a subtle yet profound contrast of beauty in both cultures. This is also demonstrated in the music video, where JJ navigates between time and space, in a quest for brotherhood, much like JJ and Steve Aoki each coming together in real life from different time zones and different parts of the world to lend their mastery to Not Tonight (Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix).

繼［While I Can］之後，跳脫理所當然的思維，超越歌迷的想像，搶先釋出JJ與世界前十大DJ - Steve Aoki合作【Not Tonight】（Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix）版本，這是JJ跨足EDM領域的第一步，歌曲中面對難以放下的對象與難以釋懷的自我，真實情感的不斷拉扯，還不能放棄的這夜晚，從JJ的自由低喃中解放開。並且透過Steve Aoki的DJ-ing，投入更強烈與明亮的電音節奏，能量一觸即發，救贖那個黑夜中的自我，進化整首歌曲的迷幻且感性，提煉出捉摸不定的搖擺。

［Not Tonight］（Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix）是JJ正式啟動【Like You Do】EP的單曲，在【Like You Do】EP中，JJ Lin回到做音樂的本質面貌說故事，當這個語言更加直覺，遇見的自己就越加真實。他遠赴異地，尋找更多不同的聲音，當沒有任何模板框架，跳脫以往的創作模式，他的音樂更加自我也更加自由。與全新的音樂夥伴合作，無論曲、詞，JJ自在地享受，完全地吸收來自不同的音樂人所給予的能量，共同激盪出不同以往的音樂風格。一切不經設定、沒有設限也沒有包袱，放下習慣的唱腔，衝撞出全新的聲音。所有面貌都是最原始最嶄新，也是翻面後的第一頁。

這是JJ與Steve Aoki首次合作，華語的感性與西洋的前衛形成微妙的衝突美感，MV中也演繹出此音樂特性，兩個截然不同的時空背景下，JJ從簡約科技感空間去實現另一個時空的兄弟情誼。在EDM曲風的英文歌中，置入充滿東方色彩的溫度，冷暖交替。JJ與Steve Aoki跨時空的面對面對峙，隨著音樂的消長，激發出震撼的能量。
