【聊了什么The What】 阿黛、大蝶和海燕，三位坐标纽约的优秀女性音乐人和艺术家围绕阿黛的新专辑《妈妈我三十了》展开了一场女性视角下艺术表达的圆桌讨论。在当下，女性艺术家如何突破传统的男性凝视，用自己的声音讲述自己的故事成为她们共同关注的焦点。 我们是否能够打破对女性身体和性的羞耻感，坦然面对自己的欲望？当我们大胆表达女性情欲时，是在争取身体自主，还是在迎合男性目光？母亲对女儿的期待是爱的延续，还是控制欲的体现？艺术创作能否帮助我们摆脱性别的枷锁找到自我认同？ For this episode, we are joined by three outstanding female artists - ADÀI, Dii Fu and Hedy - in a discussion around Adai's new album "Mom, I'm Thirty.” They explored the theme of artistic expression from a female perspective, how contemporary women artists can break free from the traditional male gaze and tell their own stories with unique voices. Can we shatter the shame surrounding female bodies and female sexuality, and embrace our own desires? When we tell stories about female sensuality, are we asserting bodily autonomy, or pandering to the male gaze? Is a mother's expectation for her daughter an extension of love, or a manifestation of the desire to control? Can artistic creation help us break free from the shackles of gender norms and find self-identity? 【时间轴 The When】 * 01:12 从阿黛新专辑《妈妈我三十了》谈起，探讨30岁女性的生活状态 * 06:50 阿黛谈创作初衷：表达30岁女性如何做人、面对性与爱 * 12:26 大蝶《塞牙歌女》背后的故事：为独立进步女性发声 * 19:00 音乐中的男性凝视：男性如何想象和塑造女性形象 * 22:00 女性音乐人如何表达自己的视角，挑战传统性别刻板印象 * 30:50 饶舌音乐：本是男性化的音乐形式，女性如何利用它表达自我 * 47:30 海燕谈女性艺术家表达性体验和性器官的重要性 * 51:30 阿黛和大蝶在创作中如何表现女性情感和性 * 01:12 ADÀI's new album "Mom, I'm 30" and the life of 30-year-old women * 12:26 The story behind Dii Fu’s "Picky Girls": giving voice to independent and progressive women * 19:00 The male gaze in music: how men imagine and shape the female image * 22:00 How female musicians express their own perspectives and challenge traditional gender stereotypes * 30:50 Rap music: originally a masculine music form, how do women use it for self-expression * 47:30 Hedy on the importance of female artists expressing sexual experiences and organs * 51:30 How ADÀI and Dii Fu express female emotions and sexuality in their creative work 【拓展链接】 阿黛《妈妈我三十了》 大蝶《塞牙歌女》 【我们是谁 The Who】 《选修课 Universus》是一档分享和探讨泛文化话题的中文播客，脱胎于2013年创办的纽约文化沙龙。 我们力求引发对学科方法和视角的认知和思考，而不仅仅是知识的传递。我们在组织活动的过程中积累了一些经验和人脉，尝试打造成年人的博雅教育，并在播客中拓展这样的探索。我们希望审视和反抗无意识的价值规训与随波逐流。我们希望冷酷地剖析自己的偏见，热忱地拥抱多元视角。我们希望去工具化，真诚地感知、理解、创造自己的生活和复杂的世界。我们追随原初的好奇而非代餐式的猎奇。话题可以轻松，方法力求严肃。在《选修课》里，我们互相映照，唤醒失落的维度。 主播： 陈璐：比较文学硕士，跨文化的非虚构写作者，翻译，书影评论人，女性主义者，希望听到大家的故事。 嘉宾： * 宋黛霆 ADÀI：活跃在纽约/北京的独立流行歌手、词曲作者、制作人和DJ，前腾讯音乐签约艺人。自2017年入行以来，阿黛的歌曲在华语音乐平台上累计多达6000万次播放，出现在院线电影、黄金档电视剧中，优酷综艺《这！就是原创》音乐榜单Top 6。自2021年以来，她开始活跃在纽约，以ADÀI的艺名与德、俄、荷、美、土等国的制作人合作电子舞曲（EDM），Spotify月均65k+播放。目前也在伯克利音乐学院NYC校区任教。此次她携带新专辑《妈妈我30了》，聊聊创作中的女性视角和反抗。 * 大蝶 Dii Fu：北京人，现居布鲁克林，独立唱作人。她致力于为女性、少数群体发声，多将喜剧、中国传统元素融入作品中。她曾主导多个女性集体创作活动，将近百位女性的个人故事收录于创作中，并联合各界女性艺术家共同完成音乐制作、视觉表达及短片拍摄。她热衷在艺术领域跨界，涉猎短片导演、脱口秀、舞台表演、雕塑等。曾任老狼、Jony J等知名歌手北美演唱会制作人。 * 海燕：（HEDY ZHANG），生于中国西安，现居美国纽约。毕业于纽约帕森斯设计学院，获得美术学士学位，辅修性别研究。她以行为艺术和多媒介创作为主，作品曾在纽约地铁、UNDERCURRENT画廊等展出，2023年被欧洲CUT ART画廊代理。她的作品曾被收录在哥伦比亚大学艺术史图录中，也在ARTSY、OPENSEA等平台上开放收藏，并接受VOYAGE LA、AMNY、EVERYART等多家媒体采访。作为《一万个艺术家的晚餐》的主编，她致力于探索艺术与社会、身份和文化、性别和语言的关系，为观众搭建交流平台，并书写中国先锋艺术家自己的艺术史。 选修课 Universus is a Chinese-language podcast created by the same people who founded the New York Chinese Cultural Salon (纽约文化沙龙）in 2013.

【聊了什么】 在这一期选修课中，我与黄潇潇展开了一场关于信仰、信仰和灵性生活的深入对话。潇潇在哥伦比亚大学获得东亚语言与文化硕士，并于圣托马斯大学攻读福传与文化硕士。 我想了解作为一个在无神论教育中长大的中国人为何会选择突破成长环境给予的思维定势，拥抱一个全新的宗教世界观？ 在潇潇看来，关于宗教信仰的议题之于每个人都应当是一门"必修课"。我们应当如何理解"信仰"？它是一种寄托、一种精神依归，还是我们超越自我、连接至高存在的途径？如果说皈依意味着新生，彼岸世界是什么样的？科学与宗教是否真的势不两立？教会固守教义是原则的坚定，还是思想的僵化？“与时俱进”是否是一种当代性的“坐标霸权”？面对新时代的伦理困境，经典文本能否给出令人信服的应对之道？宗教信仰是存在主义危机的解药吗？在虚无和焦虑浸染的时代，对于那些无法被物质和功利填满的内心角落，人类究竟需要怎样的信仰？ In this thought-provoking episode, we embarked on a profound exploration of faith and its role in shaping our lives with our guest Xiaoxiao. Raised in an atheistic education system, what compelled her to challenge this upbringing and embrace an entirely new religious worldview? Xiaoxiao argues that the question of religious faith is something every individual should examine. What exactly is "faith"? Is it a form of spiritual refuge, a source of existential solace, or a means to transcend the self and connect with a higher power? Can science and religion truly coexist? When religious institutions adhere to their doctrines, is it a display of principled conviction or a symptom of ideological stagnation? Can ancient wisdom offer compelling solutions to modern problems? Can faith fill the void in our souls that materialism and utilitarianism leave behind? 【时间轴】 * 01:12 大学期间对基督教的态度：从好奇到受洗 * 00:20:00 基督教能与时俱进吗? * 00:30:50 现代人的虚无感来自于失去了超越性 * 00:38:12 讨论对基督教常见的看法：反科学、保守主义等 * 00:52:06 道德和价值观的基础在于有无一个超越的上帝 * 01:15:44 基督教对现代性的批判：过度关注自我 * 00:02:04 Xiao Xiao's journey of Christian faith: from curiosity to baptism * 00:20:00 Is Christianity out of touch? * 00:30:50 Modern people's lost of transcendence * 00:38:12 Address common conceptions about Christianity: anti-science, conservatism, etc. * 00:52:06 The foundation of morality and values lies in whether there is a transcendent God * 01:15:44 Christianity's critique of modernity: excessive focus on the self 【拓展链接】 越过台伯河：我为什么是天主教徒［上］ 【我们是谁 The Who】 选修课 Universus 是一档分享和探讨泛文化话题的中文播客，脱胎于2013年创办的纽约文化沙龙。 我们力求引发对学科方法和视角的认知和思考，而不仅仅是知识的传递。我们在组织活动的过程中积累了一些经验和人脉，尝试打造成年人的博雅教育，并在播客中拓展这样的探索。我们希望审视和反抗无意识的价值规训与随波逐流。我们希望冷酷地剖析自己的偏见，热忱地拥抱多元视角。我们希望去工具化，真诚地感知、理解、创造自己的生活和复杂的世界。我们追随原初的好奇而非代餐式的猎奇。话题可以轻松，方法力求严肃。在《选修课》里，我们互相映照，唤醒失落的维度。 主播： 老赵：理论物理学博士，软件工程师，纽约文化沙龙组织者。 嘉宾： 黄潇潇：哥伦比亚大学东亚语言与文化硕士，圣托马斯大学福传与文化硕士在读 选修课 Universus is a Chinese-language podcast created by the same people who founded the New York Chinese Cultural Salon (纽约文化沙龙）in 2013.

【聊了什么The What】 从一个粒子物理学博士转型为公共写作者，程扬扬不断反思母语的影响与限制，重审自己与故乡的关系，在写作中实践自由，探索语言的边界。 作为一个跨国成长、拥有多重学科身份认同的人了，程扬扬在写作中试图找到属于自己的声音。她分享了自己在英语学习过程中对语言自由的思考，讨论了科学术语翻译如何反映一个时代的权力结构。她坦诚地谈到作为一个华裔女性写作者如何在性别和族裔身份中寻找平衡，用诚实而敏锐的笔触描绘世界，让沉默的人说话，让被遮蔽的事物显形，用一个全新的视角照亮世界。 Why do we write? Transitioning from a physics PhD to a public writer, Yangyang constantly reflects on the influence and limitations of her mother tongue, re-examines her relationship with her homeland, practices freedom in writing, and explores the boundaries of language. As someone who grew up transnationally with multiple academic identities, she seeks to find her own voice in writing. In this episode, she shares her thoughts on linguistic freedom during her English learning process and discusses how the translation of scientific terms reflects the power structure of an era. She also talks about finding balance in her gender and ethnic identities, depicting the world with an honest and sharp pen, letting the silenced speak, revealing the concealed, and illuminating the world from a brand-new perspective. 【时间轴 The When】 * 00:00:00 选修课播客的起源 * 00:06:00 程扬扬的早期写作经历 * 00:10:34 母语中的禁忌话题:政治与死亡 * 00:16:08 英语学习：一种逃避和自由的语言 * 00:24:19 “科学”一词的翻译演变及其反映的时代变迁 * 00:42:18 作为华裔女性写作者面对的刻板印象与挑战 * 00:51:10 写作要直面内心，表达真实的自我 * 00:54:49 文字的力量：唤醒沉默的人，照亮被遮蔽的世界 * 01:05:48 人类跨越时空留下信息，建立彼此的联结 * 00:00:00 Early writing experiences * 00:10:34 Taboo topics in her mother tongue: politics and death * 00:16:08 Learning English: a language of escape and freedom * 00:24:19 The evolution of the translation of "science" and the changes it reflects in different eras * 00:42:18 Stereotypes and challenges faced as a Chinese female writer * 00:51:10 Writing requires facing one's inner self and expressing the true self * 00:54:49 The power of words: awakening the silenced and shedding light on the concealed world * 01:05:48 Humans leave information across time and space to establish connections with each other 【我们是谁 The Who】 《选修课 Universus》是一档分享和探讨泛文化话题的中文播客，脱胎于2013年创办的纽约文化沙龙。 我们力求引发对学科方法和视角的认知和思考，而不仅仅是知识的传递。我们在组织活动的过程中积累了一些经验和人脉，尝试打造成年人的博雅教育，并在播客中拓展这样的探索。我们希望审视和反抗无意识的价值规训与随波逐流。我们希望冷酷地剖析自己的偏见，热忱地拥抱多元视角。我们希望去工具化，真诚地感知、理解、创造自己的生活和复杂的世界。我们追随原初的好奇而非代餐式的猎奇。话题可以轻松，方法力求严肃。在《选修课》里，我们互相映照，唤醒失落的维度。 主播： 老赵：理论物理学博士，软件工程师，纽约文化沙龙组织者。 Xiaohan：东亚美术史博士，哥伦比亚大学美术史讲师，纽约文化沙龙理事。 选修课 Universus is an Chinese-language podcast that explores a wide range of cultural topics.
