  • 2046


    This film seems to have received mixed reviews, but there's a lot of depth here, more than in "In the Mood for Love"; it definitely rewards multiple viewings. I wonder if the experience is different for English-only speakers who are unable to catch Kar-Wai's constant shifting between languages; certainly the subpar subtitles don't help. The multiple-DVD Korean import of this film is so tempting. Patience, patience....
  • On Intelligence


    Yet another theory of how the brain works. Interesting stuff. In another life I would love to pursue courses of study in cognitive neuroscience. The real take-home lesson for me here, though is: sparring practice where you get clobbered in the head repeatedly = bad.
  • In an Uncertain World: Tough Choices from Wall Street to Washington


    A fascinating account of what it's like to work in a presidential administration by Clinton Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin. More valuable is the insight into his philosophy of life, management and his decision-making framework. Alas, his kind is rare in the world.
  • Amon Tobin's soundtrack to Splinter Cell 3


    I loves me some Amon Tobin. And I loves me some computer games. So two great tastes should taste great together, right? What's more interesting are the challenges of doing such a thing; I'd imagine one would need to write in a way that the music can loop easily and arbitrarily, which is an interesting constraint.

hi Jeff,
I couldn't find any other way to contact the administrators for the HD forums. My account got deleted by accident. My username is dodecahedron & my email is veganbatman@gmail.com. Could you please reactivate them? I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Jordan
