		<title>Open Goat Super Fun!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw this  on Jake Newby's blog, and it sounds exciting. A one-hour improv session featuring weird acoustic sounds, with no constraints or limits to speak of, performed in a space buzzing with artistic activity? Nifty!]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Punctum&#8217; is a funny word</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw X is Y  during the first gig I ever attended here in Shanghai, which was only a couple of months ago. They stood out then, and they were nifty during Saturday's Trash A Go-Go night as well. And, like always, I wonder what makes their sort of music cool.]]></description>

		<title>The Reason Why I Think Handsome Furs Were a Waste of 120 Yuan</title>

		<description><![CDATA[I will no longer be posting things called travel diaries, because I was never really travelling in the first place. Hell, it's not even a working holiday - my salary here doesn't translate too favourably into my home currency, as XE.com is alsways quick to remind me.]]></description>

		<title>Shanghai Travel Diary, Part Three: Politics by Proxy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the best things about coming to China is the extent to which I&#8217;ve been able to keep up with Australian politics, as well as the international issues that interest me. I was expecting it to be much more difficult &#8211; the firewall, my (mis)conceptions about the reliability of internet connections in Shanghai, as [...]]]></description>
