<h1>Classmates</h1>
|
||
|
|
<p style="margin-top:60px;">Most classmates from primary school lived in Haitang Compound, 1.8 kilometers to the Nanhai Library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The few one I knew, their parents worked in the post office, and Nanhai Car Factory. It could be possible that the Haitang Compound is developed and provisioned for employees working for a list of institutions and enterprises. Two of them were neighbors right next to each other, their fathers both worked for Nanhai Car Factory.</p>

<section id="network"><h1>Unpacking Abstraction: Taking the Line for a Walk</h1>
|

|
|
|

<p>In <a class="colleague" href="http://b-e-e-t.r-o-o-t.net/pages/wijnhaven_to_foshan.html">Wijnhaven to Foshan</a>, Simon recounted his experience walking from Piet Zwart building to my home, where I self hosted my server. In his account, walking as recorded by GPS contained layers of abstraction of embodied experience - movement, altitude, speed, and time.</p>
|

|
<p>I had not walked to my former classmates' compounds, despite that they lived only 1.8 kilometes away. This 1.8 kilometer is not measured by geometry alone, but loaded with weighted boundries of social belonging, which were already quite perceptible, although the idea was not eloquently conceptualized amongst young children.</p>

<p>To live in whichever district represented distinctive social belongings. I think of the <a href="dormitory_building.html">row building</a>, which happened a generation before me, prior to market liberalisation. It aimed to provide equal chances across the network. It was a form of decentralization to distribute resources and reach a equilibrium state. However, I still had doubt how much of that was true in social reality, because even under provisioned regime, workers in higher position had priority for resources. Equilibrium is an abstraction that needs to be unpacked in social practice.</p>
