“A New View of the Irish Famine through Geographic Information Science and  Geographically Weighted Regression”

     The Irish Famine (1845-49) had a devasting impact on the Irish population from which the country has still not recovered.  It also had a major impact on the populations of countries such as the US, the UK and Australia - major destinations of Irish migrants fleeing the famine.  This seminar will present new, detailed information on the spatial impacts of the Irish famine and will explore the determinants of spatial variations in the impacts of the famine in terms of population loss within the country.

“Digitalized Enka-stylish Taipei: The Japanese Cultural Space of Taiwanese Ballad’s Imaginary”

     The lecture examines the popularity of Taiwanese Ballad as an example of music form with mixed-blood influences from Japan that evolved into the Taipei’s three cities regions, Bangka, Dwaduedia, and Ximending（Seimonch?）from 1930 to 1960. All those cultural imaginary, historical discourse entangling with cultural products and imbued with cultural meanings, as a critical to an understanding of places of Japan’s enka in the lives of their listeners via GIS mapping. With the help of historical GIS, digital humanity, and the VR (virtual reality) technologies created a 3D, sphere-like environment, to develop a virtual museum documenting the life and deeply-enka-stylish creations of the top Taiwanese Ballad singer-songwriter Hung Yi-feng, providing visitors a digital glimpse into the world of Music Taipei.
