Connected in the Vault

  • Absorbed 2026-09-10: the vault holds two fellow New Asia Chamber Music Society (NACMS) principals as person pages — |Dr. Wei-Yang Andy Lin 林威良 (NACMS co-founder and Artistic Director) and |Kevin Shue (NACMS founding member and Director of Education and Community Engagement). No standalone organization page exists yet for NACMS 新亞室內樂協會; the cited TAH pages remain the anchors.
  • Deepen 2026-09-11: those two pages independently record the same NACMS founding roles in their TAH Employment tables, corroborating this page; the 32 vault work records are bibliographic-only (Band B), so no further text was absorbable in-vault.
  • Deepen 2026-09-14 (vault-only): re-checked 32 vault records and both NACMS colleague pages — no new absorbable facts; page already carries all vault-attested links.
  • Slice 09141400-15 re-sweep: fresh grep across works/ and articles/ for 陳南呈/Nan-Cheng Chen hits only the two already-linked TAH work records (#516, #32 — bibliographic anchors) plus the works index; SKIP (nothing new absorbable in-vault, no conflicts).
