Shanren got their ploy

山人自有妙计

“As the contemporary cultures keep penetrating into people’s mind, secluded voices in deep mountains are fading away,” so laments the synopsis of the Band Shanren on Douban.com. Shanren, or mountain hermits, nevertheless self-applaud their band for roaming between cities and mountains.

“随着现代文明气息的越发深入人心，埋藏在山里的声音却在一点点消逝 。”这是豆瓣山人乐队小站的简介中的一句话，他们一直以“游走于城市与山”自诩。

Mushroom —A taste of Yunnan during the rainy season

菌子 雨季云南味

Mushroom has no definitive word that encompasses what the Yunnan people know of the fungus. Mushroom is a botanical term, and in Yunnan, it is called the ‘jun’. When Yunnan locals say this word, in whatever dialect, they are referring to the fungi that quietly rise through the soft red soil and the thick and rotting leaves in their hometown during the rainy season.

云南人几乎不会用云南话说出“蘑菇”这个单词。蘑菇存在于植物学图鉴，云南只有“菌”。当云南人用各地方言说出这个字的时候，它们都确定无疑地指向各自的家乡，指向那里的雨季，雨季里松软的红土，红土上层层叠叠的腐叶。腐叶之下，菌子正旋转着悄然钻出地面。其实云南人可以用菌子做上一桌子的菜，对于菌类的操控已经达到了一种变幻莫测的高度。
