▶Abstract:
Towards the end of the Moore’s law scaling approaching, there is a need for new device technologies that break the limits of computing performance at the nanoscale while enabling better energy efficiency. We also need to consider a new approach with the new materials and new devices for exploring new paradigms of computing. Among the emerging technologies, emerging memory become the candidates for enabling the highly efficient computing while with nonvolatile effect for information storage applications. This talk aims to introduce the current develop of novel materials and emerging electronics, such as the memristor with mimicking the neural system, 2D materials for flexible electronics, and helix-structured active matters.
▶Short Bio:
Dr. Daphne Chen is the assistant professor in School of Informatics, Computing and Cyber Systems at Northern Arizona University. She received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at The University of Texas at Austin in 2019, B.S. and M.S. degree from National Chiao Tung University (Taiwan). Prior to joining NAU, she was the R&D Pathfinding Emerging Memory Engineer at Micron Technology working on emerging memory and future applications. Her primary research focuses on emerging electronics and memory devices for high storage class, new computing, and energy-efficient integrated systems.

No Forbidden Zones in Reading (Lee Yee)
German philosopher Hegel said, “The only thing we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history.”
In April 1979, the post-Cultural Revolution era of China, the first article of the first issue of Beijing-based literary magazine, Dushu [meaning “Reading” in Chinese]," shook up the Chinese literary world. The article, titled “No Forbidden Zones in Reading”, was penned by Li Honglin. At the time, the CCP had not yet emerged from the darkness of the Cultural Revolution. What was it like in the Cultural Revolution? Except for masterpieces by Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin and Mao, and a small fraction of practical books, all books were banned, and all libraries were closed. The Cultural Revolution ended in 1976, and 2 years later in 1978, the National Publishing Bureau decided to allow 35 books to be “unbanned”. An interlude: When the ban was first lifted, there was no paper on which to print the books because the person with authority over paper was Wang Dongxing, a long-term personal security of Mao’s, who would only give authorization to print Mao. The access to use paper to print books other than Mao was a procedural issue. The Cultural Revolution was already on its way to be overturned. The door to printing these books was opened only after several hang-ups.
“No Forbidden Zones in Reading” in the first issue of Dushu raised a question of common sense: Do citizens have the freedom to read? “We have not enacted laws that restrict people’s freedom of reading. Instead, our Constitution stipulates that people have the freedom of speech and publication, as well as the freedom to engage in cultural activities. Reading ought to be a cultural activity,” argued Li. It was not even about the freedom of speech, but simply reading. Yet this common sense would appear as a subversion of the paralyzing rigid ideas formulated during the Cultural Revolution, like a tossed stone that raises a thousand ripples. Dushu’s editorial department received a large number of objections: first, that there would be no gatekeeper and mentally immature minors would be influenced by trashy literature; second, that with the opening of the Pandora box, feudalism, capitalism and revisionism would now occupy our cultural stage. The article also aroused waves of debates within the CCP. Hu Yaobang, then Minister of Central Propaganda, transferred and appointed Li Honglin as the Deputy Director of the Theory Bureau in his department. A colleague asked him directly, “Can primary school students read Jin Pin Mei [also known in English as The Plum in the Golden Vase, a Chinese novel of manners composed in late Ming dynasty with explicit depiction of sexuality]?”
“All Four Doors of the Library Should be Open” was published in the second issue of Dushu, as an extension to “No Forbidden Zones in Reading”. The author was Fan Yuming, but was really Zeng Yansiu, president of the People’s Publishing House.
In the old days, there was a shorthand for the three Chinese characters for “library”: “book” within a “mouth”. The four sides of the book are all wide open, meaning that all the shackles of the banned books are released. “No Forbidden Zones in Reading” explains this on a theoretical level: the people have the freedom to read; “All Four Doors of the Library Should be Open” states that other than special collection books, all other books should be available for the public to loan.
The controversy caused by “No Forbidden Zones in Reading” lasted 2 years, and in April 1981, at the second anniversary of Dushu, Director of the Publishing Bureau, Chen Hanbo, penned an article that reiterated that there are “No Forbidden Zones in Reading”, and that was targeting an “unprecedented ban on books that did happen”.
Books are records of human wisdom, including strange, boring, vulgar thoughts, which are all valuable as long as they remain. After Emperor Qin Shihuang burned the books, he buried the scholars. In history, the ban on books and literary crimes have never ceased.
Engraved on the entrance to Dachau concentration camp in Germany, a famous poem cautions: When a regime begins to burn books, if it is not stopped, they will turn to burn people; when a regime begins to silent words, if it is not stopped, they will turn to silent the person. At the exit, a famous admonishment: When the world forgets these things, they will continue to happen.
Heine, a German poet of the 19th century, came up with “burning books and burning people”. There was a line before this: This is just foreplay.
Yes, all burning and banning of books are just foreplay. Next comes the literary crimes, and then “burning people”.
I started working at a publishing house with a high school degree at 18, and lived my entire life in a pile of books. 42 years ago, when I read “No Forbidden Zones in Reading” in Dushu, I thought that banned books were a thing of the past. Half a century since and here we are, encountering the exact same thing in the freest zone for reading in the past century in the place which enlightened Sun Yat-sen and the rest of modern intellectuals, a place called Hong Kong.
Oh, Hegel’s words are the most genuine.

*This giveaway has ended. Thanks to everyone who joined!*
{Book Giveaway} Books are her life. This girl loves reading all kinds of books and can do it anytime, anywhere. She reads when she wakes, reads before she sleeps, reads when she is bored and reads when we go on holiday.
Her current favourite is My BFF is an Alien by local author Vivian Teo, whom we had the honour of knowing during our Royal Caribbean cruise last year. We love Vivian's writing style and this book, which is the first of a four-book series, is a middle grade novel that talks about two 13-year-old best friends, Abriana and Octavia. Octavia is an alien from the planet Viridis who crash-landed in Singapore and together with Abriana, they go on a quest to retrieve a rare element that powers her family spaceship so she can go home.
My girl loves the plot because besides the exciting sci-fi setting and imaginative adventures, there is so much she can relate to as an upper primary kid, including mean classmates, bullies, endless homework, CCAs and friendship. This book reminds her that she is never alone and there will always be true friends who appreciate her for who she truly is. I find that an important takeaway.
In her words, Angel says she loves the book because it has good vocabulary that she can use in school. She also loves the friendship between the two girls and seeing how they worked as a team to help each other. "I can't wait to know what happens to them in the second book and how their adventure will be like!"
My BFF is an Alien is suitable for kids aged 10 and above and is now available at Huggs-Epigram Coffee Bookshop, Epigram Books and in major bookstores.

Just like "夜に駆ける" (Racing into the night), I did another variation video of YOASOBI song! This one is their latest single "三原色" (Sangenshoku), which means "Three Primary Colors", a.k.a. RGB. The song was based on the novel titled RGB, which is about three childhood friends who have been estranged since elementary school due to a trivial matter and reunited as an adult. Ayase said the song depicts the connection between people.
