Beyond research / 研究之外

Outside research, I have played tennis for ten years and can read German. I hope to study architecture one day and am especially fascinated by the dougong bracket systems of traditional Chinese architecture. I also draw from time to time.

Recently, I have started collecting miniature cars. I listen to a lot of rock music; some of my favorite bands are Carsick Cars, Shanghai Qiutian, Pink Floyd, Omnipotent Youth Society (万能青年旅店), America, and Sadistics.

I enjoy browsing record shops, taking snapshots with a point-and-shoot film camera, and collecting vinyl. I have watched many films, although lately I have not been reading as often. I have no dietary restrictions.

研究之外,我已经打了十年网球,也能够阅读德语。我一直希望有机会系统学习建筑,尤其着迷于中国传统建筑中的斗栱结构;闲暇时也会画一点画。

最近开始喜欢收藏小车模型。我常听摇滚乐,喜欢的乐队包括 Carsick Cars、Shanghai Qiutian、Pink Floyd、万能青年旅店、America 和 Sadistics。

我喜欢逛唱片店,用一台傻瓜胶片相机随手拍照,也收藏了不少黑胶唱片。我看过不少电影,不过最近读书少了些。饮食上没有忌口。
