Trends in Beijing
Reignwood Theatre Acoustics?
So, I'm heading to the Reignwood Theatre next week for a concert. I've heard amazing things about the architecture, but I'm a bit of a sound snob. Anyone been there recently who can comment on the ac… more
Yeah, the Reignwood Theatre is stunning, architecturally. But the acoustics... it's a mixed bag. I went to a symphony there last month, and while the overall sound was pretty good, there were definitely some dead spots. It wasn't terrible, but you'll notice some sections where the sound is a little muffled compared to others. It's not a dealbreaker, especially given how gorgeous the place is, but just be aware it's not perfect. If you're really a sound snob, maybe bring earplugs just in case. You paid a pretty penny, you should be able to enjoy the performance.
Beijing ChemTech's Secret Society?
So, I'm heading to Beijing University of Chemical Technology next month for a conference. Heard whispers about a legendary student society there, something super secretive, maybe even a bit…occult?… more
Nah, it's probably just a rumour. University campuses are full of legends and tall tales. Students love a good mystery. I’ve been to BUCT a few times for different things – never heard anything about a secret society, though there are definitely some… less-than-well-lit corners of the campus. Maybe they just mean a really exclusive study group? Or a particularly tight-knit club with inside jokes? Don't get your hopes up for anything genuinely occult. Focus on your conference. Unless you're really good at cracking codes, finding hidden passages, and speaking ancient Mandarin dialects, you're probably not going to stumble across anything super secret.
