With its emergence as a global power, China aspires to transform
from made in China to created in China. Mobilised as a crucial
source for solid growth and soft power, creativity has become part
of the new China Dream. Boredom, Shanzhai, and Digitisation in the
Time of Creative China engages with the imperative of creativity by
aligning it to three interrelated phenomena: boredom, shanzhai, and
digitisation. How does creativity help mitigate boredom? Does
boredom incubate creativity? How do shanzhai practices and the
omnipresence of fake goods challenge notions of the original and
the authentic? Which spaces for expressions and contestations has
China's fast-developing digital world of Weixin, Taobao, Youku, and
Internet Plus Policy opened up? Are new technologies serving old
interests? Essays, dialogues, audio-visual documents, and field
notes, from thinkers, researchers, practitioners, and
policy-makers, examine what is going on in China now, ultimately to
tease out its implication to our understanding of creativity.
