Summary:
To represent Hong Kong? It seemed logical to go back to its origins, to set up the mise-en-scène, a granite island covered with beautiful, unspoiled jungle. In 1841, the British prime minister Lord Palmerston described Hong Kong as 'a barren island with hardly a house upon it' for which he could see no future.

Summary:
Exile and marginality, network availability, mass- versus subcultural identities, privilege, opting (versus dropping) out – these are elements this issue takes on.

Exile and marginality, network availability, mass- versus subcultural identities, privilege, opting (versus dropping) out – these are elements this issue takes on. The fading of bohemia’s appeal is no doubt linked in part to a growing preference for the web’s promise of total-connectivity.
