LETTER FROM META

LETTER F EDITOR-IN CREATIVE D This year, META is celebrating the Year of the Tiger––a year that represents ambition and passion. For those familiar with Lunar New Year, the Great Race is no foreign concept. According to Chinese mythology, when the Jade Emperor challenged an array of animals in a race to win his favor, the Tiger utilized its cunning nature to crown itself a top contender. Competitive at its core, the Tiger had one line of sight, and that was victory. What exemplifies the spirit of the Tiger is courage, strength, and resilience, three core pillars that META could not exist without. As creatives, we see a reflection of ourselves in the things we admire most, and this year, it is the Tiger. The fierce passion of the Tiger is what pushed it towards the finish line of the Great Race, and that same passion is what continues to motivate us in pushing META to the forefront of media. What ultimately drives META at its core is our focus on culture. As two young Asian American female creatives, our heritage is what makes us unique both as individual creators, and as a collective. It is where we come together to share our voices and source inspiration for the stories we want to tell. Our culture is the very thing that has made us who we are today, and this zine is an homage to that. 6

LETTER FROM META

FR M THE N-CHIEF & DIRECTOR The beauty of Lunar New Year is to celebrate one thing––community. The Tiger is characterized by taking a leap of faith, a leap that launched it over the river and towards the Jade Emperor. Together at META, we’re taking our leap of faith in revolutionizing the industry with culture. ​​ Being Asian American has given us a profound way of seeing the world, and that cultural intimacy of our art is the greatest privilege of all. This Lunar New Year, we wish you all good luck and good fortune in discovering the Tiger within you––that is, the fierce love and passion that resides in your heart to make you the best version of yourself. Join us in celebrating Lunar New Year beside some of the most influential Asian creators of our time. You may have seen them on TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, and together we collaborated to create a zine that houses a sense of cultural comfort that reminds us of who we are. Together, let’s find the spirit of the Tiger within ourselves. From META to yours, Happy Lunar New Year! With love, Joy Chen (陳紫儀) & Tiffany Hue (侯嘉慧)

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

Tigers have always influenced me ever since I was young as it was my favourite animal growing up. The symbolism of a tiger has been more pronounced ever since I graduated as I really challenged myself to be more independent. I lived on my own, spent more time with myself than ever, and learned a lot about what life meant to me. My newfound independence made me more confident in the direction I wanted to go in life and naturally made me be more resilient with the goals I had set for myself. I never liked being alone, but once I challenged myself to do so, I learned a lot about what I want and not what others want for me.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

My favourite Lunar New Year tradition is gathering together as a family and eating lots of Chinese food. When I was younger, we used to go over to my grandparent’s house and do all the traditional practices. Now that I am away from home, the tradition has changed slightly, but no matter what, I always love to get together with friends and family and order our favourite Chinese dishes.

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey? My Chinese zodiac actually is the Tiger (I was born in 1998)! Those three words have meant everything to me in growing up as a survivor and also as the oldest sister of three daughters. I have a podcast now called Tigress, and that’s actually inspired by the Chinese zodiac sign. I have the word “resilience” tattooed under my right boob because, for me, that word is what I try to hang onto and cherish as I move forward in the world. So much of my mental health and even my professional journey have required that I take on these three elements – from healing from trauma to being independent at a young age, to starting my career in social activism and entrepreneurship at age 16.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition? I actually didn’t really grow up with many Lunar New Year traditions – I’m First Generation Japanese American and Second-Gen Chinese American. When it comes to Lunar New Year, many of my memories revolve around traditions of food. Moon cakes were always present!

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey? I think on a global scale, we’ve seen the themes of strength and independence throughout our world due to the pandemic and social movements that we’ve seen gain traction. The year of the tiger has this undercurrent of free-thought, that you see embodied into the leaders of these movements. Tigers are symbols of justice in Daoism and there is no better parallel than what we see happening now. People are less likely to sit and let injustices happen, rather, we are all doing our part in protecting our brothers and sisters, uplifting and empowering voices that were historically suppressed. It’s in the very DNA of the young adult psyche at this point. We have this inherent resilience in that a lot of what’s happened in the last 3 years demanded it of us. Personally, there were times that I felt so hopeless and small, asking “why does nothing I do seem to matter?” At the base of the #StopAsianHate and Black Lives Matter movements, is resilience and strength to show up and keep fighting the fight even when you feel small because it is making a difference. Going into this Lunar New Year, I feel that I’ve learned a lot of the lessons I needed to in order to celebrate and embody strength, independence and resilience. I’m incredibly hopeful that this year will be the year that there are major — monumental even — changes and that we truly see our efforts in making the world a better and more just place.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition? The day before Lunar New Year, I make sure that I clean my home, I’m talkin’ deep cleaning — getting down and dirty. My mom used to say that we do this to bring the new year in with a clean slate. I also try to get rid of anything that “doesn’t bring me joy,” in the name of Marie Kondo. I leave a bottle of sake and pour a cup for my late grandpa in front of his photo, I just leave it there for him to celebrate. I think fundamentally, honoring your ancestors is a pretty overarching Asian cultural thing. I really liked when I was younger, my mom and I would get our palms read at some point during the Lunar New Year’s festivities. It felt like our one spiritual activity that we shared and it was really special. I remember on our way home we would talk about what we thought of our palm lines and fawn over our anticipated good fortune. 13

THE NEW MOON 新月 Catherine Chu

I wanted to share some of the Lunar New Year traditions that my family celebrates and capture the nostalgia I feel when the holiday comes around each year. My family always hosts a gathering with our friends and extended family, and during the celebration, we always exchange red envelopes, have a huge buffet of traditional Chinese food, and sometimes even light lanterns or fireworks. Today, it’s harder for the same family and friends to get together because many of us are in different places, but I wanted to reminisce on how significant Lunar New Year was to me throughout my childhood, and representing reconnection and reemphasizing how important family is. It was definitely one of my core memories growing up.

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

I feel like everything that has led me to this point in my life, whether it be personally or career-wise, has required me to be persistent as hell and trust myself in the process. I definitely wouldn’t have done half the things that I’ve wanted to accomplish if it weren’t for me realizing what exactly it is I want and working my butt off until I achieved it! I’ve gone through some tough stuff as a queer Asian musician, and those obstacles are definitely not gonna stop coming anytime soon. However, I’m glad I’ve conquered a lot of those battles growing up! It gives me a lot of strength to continue pushing on for myself and other people who support me! I think that this year will bring forth a lot of that good fortune and strength that I need to continue being resilient and accomplish my goals!

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

Red envelopes! I hate to be that Asian kid who looks forward to Lunar New Year because of the money, but to be honest, I think red envelopes have given me some of the fondest memories I can think of having with my family. That’s not solely because of the money, (well.. what can I say) but because I think it’s absolutely hilarious how my Ah Ma’s will always find a way to sneak those red envelopes into my bags before we leave the family gathering. Me and my sister will always refuse to accept the money, but our grandparents will always sneak attack us while we get food. One time I came home from our Lunar New Year’s celebration, having succeeded avoiding a red envelope from my Ah Ma. When I got home and got undressed, I realized that my grandma had put my red envelope into the soles of my shoes! I will never get over how persistent that woman is.

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

Most people don’t know this, but I had one of the toughest years in 2021. Last February, I was mugged and targeted in the heat of Asian hate crime. For six months, I couldn’t be outside once the sun set without experiencing extreme panic. While growing and succeeding as a joyful dancer on TikTok, I was simultaneously recovering from PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). I was also moving out of a toxic living situation and going through a breakup - I didn’t believe there was light at the end of the tunnel. But I pushed through - with therapy, the support of my friends and family, and time. Today, I’m an advocate for combatting Asian hate crime (I was even a speaker at my alma mater), I love my living space, and I feel joy again. Real, authentic joy.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

My Japanese mother makes a traditional New Year’s meal that consists of food that symbolizes hope, happiness, and wealth. My family also does a “Top 10” list of the 10 most influential events that have happened to each of us in the year. Then, we do a group Facetime and go around one by one to share. It’s interesting to see the overlap, and to reflect on what we’ve accomplished, learned, and grown from.

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

The spirit of the Tiger has played a tremendous role in my journey, especially this past year with being a creative and working hard to expand my platform. It can be very challenging going into the pandemic as a teenager and blossoming into adulthood under those circumstances. I really resonate with the independence and strength the Tiger symbolizes and it’s something I take a lot of pride in with being able to take on big projects and navigating these new obstacles on my own.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

My favorite Lunar New Year tradition has to be playing “Bầu cua tôm cá”. It’s an extremely fun gambling game based on pure luck. My grandma gifts all of my cousins a roll of quarters with our li xi to play and I absolutely love coming together as a family to have fun.

I STOP SOMEWHERE, WAITING FOR YOU. (2020) Sey Yang

“I stop somewhere, waiting for you.”

When my dad passed onto me his old scanner for a couple rolls of film I shot during quarantine, he asked if I would also be willing to scan his box of old film he had taken during the 80s and 90s, before emigrating from China. “I didn’t get to keep a lot of the pictures back then, because I sent them all to friends and relatives,” he told me. By the time I sifted through the last remaining positives in the little steel mooncake box he kept them in, I was already completely invested and set to make this project my next big endeavor. I scanned approximately 150 photos in two days.

My reaction to these images was an intense, profound yearning. It felt like a crime that I had never seen any of these images before. It felt as if I didn’t know my parents at all, I initially thought. But there in front of me I saw the same mother I know now, with that giddy contentment plastered on her face as she cherished her every passing moment to the fullest extent, and the same father I know now, with that constant cool, composed disposition, unfaltering towards every hardship thrown at him. It came to me soon after that it was in fact the setting I was at odds with. I have only been to China once when I was five, and have little recollection of it. My own homeland is an enigma to me. As I began to restore and grade photographs I had no physical connection to, it felt like grasping into some subconscious plane—feeble attempts to veer into the memories held by my parents. That night it became clear that I needed to realize these remnants; I needed to reclaim. 23

“I stop somewhere, waiting for you.”

Eurocentricity subtly ravaged my mind and eroded away at my cultural ties as a child. Being queer and being surrounded in an environment that sought no value in creativity served to further widen that crevice. When I wrote stories in middle school, the characters were all white in my head. Sey was originally a white character. As Asian-American media became more popularized in recent years, I fell into the pit of boba liberalism. My ties to my cultural identity were nothing more than baseless simulacra— subtle asian traits, tapioca pearls, shrimp chips, hotpot and poke, joining Interact—all under the guise of embracing my origins. The wrongful amalgamation of already diluted East Asian representations in the West has been maliciously weaponized to uphold the institution of white supremacy above our heads. While we find fake solitude in these empty representations, we turn a blind eye to a garden of rich histories that must be understood for the true liberation of our diaspora. This series has been divided into three parts. The first is what you see now: an attempt to make substance of my unknown reality. The second is a journey I urge all of you to come along with: to tread the anti-Imperialist narratives that have established an undying solidarity within the people of our pasts. We have the duty to traverse the colorful facets of our ancestry and pay homage to the ones that fought to bring us here. This is family. As I stared into my father’s eyes, where he stood stoically in front of the shipyard he worked at in some rural place in Jiangxi, I understood what I was here for. I heard a voice in my head. It was someone from the future—it was Sey. “I stop somewhere, waiting for you,” it said. It made me smile. I know where. 24

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey? I’ve been learning to own up to my boldness and just showing up because honestly it’s so relieving to be your unapologetic self. I will say what people are afraid to say and it saves time once you realize people don’t vibe with you (AND THAT’S TOTALLY FINE.) I believe you don’t have to get along with everyone because that’s tiring. I have strong features (sharp cheekbones, I’m a taller Asian female, and I have a resting disappointed face), so I know I come across as intimidating. I used to be so sad that I would scare people off based on my appearance. When I was younger and a bit more insecure about people not liking me, I would kind of over-do my cheerfulness and act overly camp counselor-golden retreiver-esque. Now, I’ve gotten more chill and I don’t try to overextend my energy to impress EVERYONE. I respect getting to know people who let me show up as myself, don’t base me off of their first impressions of me, and they’re not afraid to REALLY get to know me.

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition? My family always opens our business during the holidays, so I would usually be working at the cash register or front desk with my family. That being said, we don’t really celebrate holidays and that’s totally fine. I really like lowkey stuff like just sharing a meal with your loved ones whether it’s friends or family. No frills, nothing fancy— just a good hearty meal with mismatched silverware, bowls, and a collection of napkins from different fast food joints. In college, my Asian friends would share their mooncakes, rice cakes, or dumplings with me and I got to learn about different cultures, foods and traditions through sharing these various foods. I love how food is a vessel for storytelling. Food has always been a favorite part of holidays such as Lunar New Years since you gather around with the ones you love to not only talk about past memories but to create a present moment revolving around yummy food

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

This past year I’ve gone through some of the hardest obstacles I’ve ever had to go through. Through the pain, I learned a lot about myself and the reasons I carry on every day. To me, the year of the tiger represents a celebration of pushing through, despite fear of the unknown. I’m really looking forward to this upcoming year and excited to celebrate LNY! Hope I get some heavy 红包s…!

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

My favorite way to celebrate LNY is by making dumplings (饺子). Growing up, my family made it a yearly tradition. Just thinking about it, I can smell of flour from the wrappers and the sizzling of sesame oil. Since I moved away from home, my brother Drake and I have made it a point to continue the traditions we grew up with. Now that we live on our own, we put out a bowl of oranges for our ancestors and light a candle to give an offering. I invite a bunch of friends over and teach them how to wrap dumplings! It’s one of my favorite days of the year.

Q1:

The Year of the Tiger symbolizes strength, independence, and resilience. How has the spirit of the tiger played a role in your journey?

Strength, independence, and resilience are all qualities that I find significant to my current stage of life. I recently graduated college, became a new registered nurse (RN) during a pandemic, and am becoming a more independent woman who is trying to figure out exactly who she is and what she wants. Working as a nurse during this time is extremely difficult some days. As wonderful as it is to help people and care for them, it can be hard to take care of yourself at the same time. It is also difficult to balance my healthcare career, pursuing my acting endeavors, and keeping up with my social media platforms; for that is my “second career.” My end goal for my life is to become an actress. I have been using my strength, independence, and resilience to work hard to find opportunities so I can eventually transition from healthcare to entertainment. I have been using my days off to audition for local student films and projects around me. Although I am young and there is much I am uncertain about, the one thing I know is that I want to be a part of telling beautiful stories on screen and inspiring others. It is a difficult industry to get started in, especially when you’re a full time nurse, but I am trying my best!

Q2:

What is your favorite Lunar New Year tradition?

That is a good question, and I don’t really have an answer. My family and I don’t have a specific tradition for Lunar New Year, we didn’t always celebrate it at home. Some years we would go out to eat or make a special dinner at home, other years we were all too busy to get together and celebrate. I have always felt a slight disconnect from my Chinese culture, and that’s why when I was away at college alone for lunar new year, I wanted to try and make my own tradition. I wanted to find events happening at my city’s Chinatown and find different community based celebrations, but unfortunately COVID occurred and caused a slight dent in my plans! I hope in the upcoming years I am able to celebrate and make some traditions, with my family or by myself. 31
