| Introduction | I regard myself as a musicologist, and probably a musician as well, just awarded a doctorate in popular music and currently a postdoctoral fellow and adjunct assistant professor of musicology at National Taiwan University. I hate hot weather and prefer reasonably cold climate, and that's why I once fled from Taiwan to Scotland. Unfortunately, I'm in Taiwan tortured by the heat at the moment. |

Why don't you ever wear a scarf? It doesn't need to be cold outside for your neck to feel naked.
Feeling naked doesn't matter, as only through feeling cold do I recognise my own existence.
