Here's a boingboing post that contains some of the text of the article: https://boingboing.net/2017/12/10/shanzhai-futurism.html

This post contains some text from a different article, there's no mention of Shenzen or Toronto in the original link (I still have it open in a tab).

Both are mentioned in the last paragraph.

Sorry, that's right. Still, that's not the quoted article.

It's a five-part essay -- you have to click on the links to the left to get to the other parts. It may be from there (I can't get the site to load right now either).

"Kipple Field Notes" is a series of five short essays. The BoingBoing post was quoting the second essay, Brickworks.

1. The Things We Carry (thanks to Qworg)

Unfortunately the Wayback Machine did not archive the last two in time. Someone can try reaching out to the author on Twitter (@hillarypredko) and see if Hillary would like to repost these essays.
