Ai Weiwei: The Numbers, Censored

In this last blog posting, artist Ai Weiwei has published dozens of messages generated by his blog hosting service informing him that various posts have been deleted by the blog administrator. All posts are regarding “The Numbers” project, the Ai Weiwei-led and volunteer-fueled endeavor to record and publish the name of every student killed during last year’s Sichuan Earthquake.

The messages appear to be automatically generated, and read as follows:

“Your article X was deleted by the administrator. Deepest regrets for the inconvenience.”
