I majored in anthropology and archaeology in B.A. and M.A. in Taiwan. The interest in kinship and identity begins from my cultural anthropology fieldwork in a rural village where there are many international marriage in southern Taiwan. The immigrants bring their native kinship concept into Taiwan family and the house is often referred to the explanation of kinship. In my M.A. archaeologial fieldwork in an abandoned aboriginal village and the interview with the descendants of the village, the house is also the main idea of identity in the physical remains and the living villagers. With the rapid development of Wi-Fi in Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, I am interested in how new material culture and technology interact with our life and identity, so I hope to apply anthropology and archaeology to analyze and represent the observation.
