Stills of "Ryuichi Sakamoto: Finale".

In Chengdu, a discussion on broadening the boundaries of cities attracted everyone's attention. Sakamoto Ryuichi Piano Solo Concert and Shinkai Makoto new work " Suzumato " have been officially announced, making people look forward to the literary and artistic life at the end of the year. The thoughts of Ryuichi Sakamoto's words "How many more can I see the full moon rise" are sad, and his hope to create the last moment of his life like Bach and Debussy are also admirable. "Rebellious Prince" Prince Harry is also about to release a new book. Let's see how he will "spoil it as he wants".
Whether offline or online, the reunion itself is worth celebrating, right?

On October 29, the "Sanlian Humanistic City Spectrum Forum" and the "Sanlian Humanistic Spectrum Ceremony" hosted by " Sanlian Life Weekly " were held in Chengdu. The theme of the
spectral forum is "City and Us: Crossing the Boundary". Xiang Biao , He Zhisen, Mao Mingrui, Ma Yansong , Wang Di, Alai , Cui Cancan , Xu Bing 8 guests shared their observations on the "boundaries" of the city and their personal stories. From different levels such as architecture, design, micro-history, data analysis, literature, etc., the guests showed different forms of urban boundaries, and also discussed the problems of how to establish and eliminate boundaries.
The boundaries of entities, the boundaries of numbers, and the boundaries of invisible class can be seen everywhere in cities, but we also turn a blind eye to them. The sharing of 8 experts and scholars awakens people's perception of urban boundaries on the one hand; on the other hand, through awareness of boundaries, we encourage more breakthroughs in boundaries and find new connections in the city. The four main lists and the top ten sub-lists of the "Humanities City Spectrum Plan" were announced at the
spectrum ceremony. A comprehensive measurement of the city was conducted using an indicator system built by "humanities, public, innovation, and aesthetics". The four major lists are as follows.
Humanistic Light Top City: Chengdu
Innovation Light Top City: Shanghai
Public Light Top City: Shenzhen
Aesthetic Light Top City: Beijing
In addition to the list, this selection may also provide a rich dimension of city evaluation. In addition to new CBD, new roads, and new industrial clusters, we pay attention to the city that should return to the object it serves, that is, the "people".

Ryuichi Sakamoto's concert, perhaps the last
, Japanese music master Ryuichi Sakamoto announced that an online piano solo concert will be held on December 11 and 12. The difference between
and the professor's online live concert two years ago is that this concert will be recorded. After suffering from roar cancer in 2014, the professor was diagnosed with rectal cancer in June 2020. He was no longer physically dying to perform live performances, but completed the performance in several times within a week. He said, "Maybe this is the last time I performed in this form."
In July 2021, the professor opened the serial series "How many more can I see the full moon rise" in "New Trend" magazine (the title is from the movie "The Covered Sky". In the first chapter of the series "Symbiosis with Cancer", the professor wrote: "Narume Soseki died of a stomach ulcer at the age of 49. In contrast, even when he died at the age of 62 in 2014, when cancer was first discovered, I lived long enough. I suffered from a new cancer and am now 70 years old. Although I don't know how many more full moon rises in my future life, it is rare to survive. I hope to create music like my beloved Bach and Debussy until the last moment."

Why are the "injured" always famous paintings?
html In October, news about world-class famous paintings being attacked frequently appeared on the hot search list: On October 14, Van Gogh's painting " Sunflower " was poured with tomatoes and canned soup at National Gallery of the United Kingdom; on October 23, Monet painting " Haystack " was poured with mashed potatoes at the Barberini Museum in Germany; on October 27, Vermeer's painting " Girl with Pearl Earrings " was spoofed at the Royal Gallery of Morites in The Hague.and above incidents were all from environmentalists. The people who attacked "Sunflower" and "The Girl with Pearl Earrings" belong to the environmental protection organization "Just Stop Oil". When pouring canned soup on "Sunflower", two activists shouted: "What is more valuable? Is it a work of art or life? Are art more valuable than food? Do you care more about protecting a painting, or protecting our planet and people?" The remarks of
are reminiscent of a heated debate topic in the program " Talk about Strange Talk " that once sparked heated discussion: The art gallery is on fire, and a famous painting and a cat can only save one. Which one do you save? At that time, the positive side Huang Zhizhong (choose to save famous paintings) and the negative side Li Dan (choose to save cats) debated around the "crying sounds in the distance". Li Dan’s point of view is: You don’t care about the crying nearby, can you care about the crying in the distance?
Environmental protection is becoming an increasingly important global issue. Commentators believe that we need to protect our planet, but also protect cultural and cultural heritage; there are hundreds of ways to attract people's attention to climate issues, and aggressive behavior should not be one of them.

Prince Harry published a book, claiming to be a "spare tire"
The memoir of Prince Harry in the UK will be published by Penguin Random House on January 10, 2023. The publisher said that the book will reproduce the famous scene at the funeral of Diana
in the 20th century: "Two boys and two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin in the sad and horrified eyes of the whole world."The title of the book "Spare" has sparked heated discussion. "spare" as a noun refers to "spare" and "substitute"; as a verb, it has the extended meaning of "forgiveness". The publisher did not explain the specific meaning of the title. It is speculated that it may take the meaning of "substitute/reserve" corresponding to "heir", which implies self-deprecating - its Spanish subtitle is even titled "En La Sombra". But some people believe that the title of the book wants to express the meaning of "forgiveness".
Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of British "Royal" magazine, said that Diana often joked that Harry was a "substitute" during her lifetime, and Harry also laughed at himself, "I am a substitute, don't have to behave so well, just do what I like." As a "rebellious prince" whose every move has attracted much attention from the public, Harry "tell-all" from the first perspective this time, although it has aroused the appetite of the gossip masses, but just as the British media said, he has blocked his retreat.

Allen Rickman published a book, and the actor's secret is revealed.
In the "Harry Potter" series, the characters who have been misunderstood by fans for the longest is Severus Snape, played by Alan Rickman. It was not until the last season that the secret of this "Mission Impossible" was finally revealed.
In the meditation pot, we see the other side of Snape - Lily, who loves Harry deeply, and the patron saint in secret to help Harry... And the collection of diary "Madly, Deeply" released in October this year, like meditation pot , allows us to see the secrets of the actors.
For example, he has wanted to abandon Snape many times. In 2006, Rickman underwent a prostatectomy to fight cancer. After that, he finally made up his mind to continue to star in the role. The sentence "Snape loves Lily" quietly revealed by J.K. Rowling became the last straw for Rickman's firm belief.
's thoughts about filming show Rickman's observation as an actor, and his diary also cared about the political situation and public life. When “9/11” happened, he wrote: “As dance training is about to begin, we see the first report from New York, and all subsequent rehearsals have become a ‘sharp’ but ‘no matter’ thing.”
In the diary, Rickman wrote: “Persevere, this is your story.” The true story of the outstanding actor is waiting to be explored.
