Just how crazy is Kim Jong-Il?

Just how crazy is Kim Jong-Il? 03/14/2003 02:11 PM
Just how crazy is Kim Jong-Il? The North Korean dictator is also an uncompromising movie producer whose casting tactics make Bowfinger look tame. In In 1978, the North Korean dictator kidnapped his favorite director from South Korea, and forced him to make a terrible, Communist-themed monster movie called "Pulgasa ri." Keep in mind, the Bush administration considers this guy saner and more level-headed than Saddam Hussein.(registration req'd)

Kim Jong Il's fanatical food fetish

Kim Jong Il's fanatical food fetish 06/26/2004 10:42 AM
Todays' LA Times has a great story about North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il's obsession with expensive, exotic food. He sends trusted aides all over the world to buy morsels of gourmet food and eats sashimi carved from live fish, while his subjects dig in the dirt with sticks looking for bugs to eat.

Kim insists that his rice be cooked over a wood fire using trees cut from Mt. Paektu, a legendary peak on the Chinese border, according to a memoir written by a nephew of Kim's first wife. He has his own private source of spring water. Female workers inspect each grain of rice to ensure that they meet the leader's standards. (The nephew, Lee Young Nam, who defected to South Korea in the 1980s, was assassinated by suspected North Korean agents in Seoul in 1997.)

Kim's refined palate is not merely a matter of idle gossip, but the subject of serious study by political psychologists trying to understand the North Korean leadership.

Jerrold M. Post, a psychiatrist who founded and was the longtime director of the CIA's Center for the Analysis of Personality and Political Behavior, says Kim's obsession with eating the best food comes from being the son of North Korean founder Kim Il Sung, revered by the propaganda machine as a god-like figure. Post diagnosed the younger Kim as a malign narcissist in large part based on information about his eating habits.

"This is how you prepare food and water for a god."

The former South Korean Ambassador says this is a good thing: "Kim Jong Il loves life. He is a drinker, a womanizer, a gourmet. To start a war requires an ascetic like Hitler who doesn't care if he lives or dies. But I can't see Kim starting a war that he will surely lose." Link

If I weren't trying so hard to reduce my POC (piles of crap) quotient, I'd yank out the PayPal right now and buy some of the amazing North Korean books and handpainted movie and propaganda posters offered on this website. Shown here, "On The Art of The Cinema" and "The Great Teacher of Journalists," two tomes penned by film buff (not a joke) and dictator Kim Jong Il. Link (Thanks, Clifford Son).

CIA Spy Museum

CIA Spy Museum 12/29/2003 11:50 PM

CIA Museum Showcases Exotic Spy Gadgets. Spy satellites, anti-rocket laser cannons — you know the drill.

Besides the jungle transmitter, the exhibits include a robotic catfish, a remote-controlled dragonfly and a camera strapped to the chests of pigeons and released over enemy targets in the 1970s. The secret gadgets currently used by CIA are left to the imagination of visitors.

I wonder how this compares to the Intern ational Spy Museum.

Chicago Museum to Get Wi-Fi

Chicago Museum to Get Wi-Fi 08/27/2004 01:30 PM
The very cool Field Museum in Chicago will get a Wi-Fi network, built by Concourse: Most users will pay a "nominal" fee to access the network, but Chicago Public School kids and their teachers will get free access. The museum also envisions using the network to offer interactive exhibits in the future. The Experience Music Project, Paul Allen's music museum in Seattle, also built a Wi-Fi network in its space recently. The networks sound useful internally for museum workers as much as for an extra service for visitors. I'm not sure how willing or interested I would be in paying to access a Wi-Fi network in a museum after I've already paid an entrance fee. But the networks would offer a great conduit for delivering content about exhibits to handheld devices as part of the regular museum experience. The EMP has a bar and restaurant that people can visit without paying an entrance fee to the museum so those users might be interested in paying to use the network....

DC Museum Report

DC Museum Report 12/17/2004 06:36 PM

Wrapping up my stay in Washington, DC, here's a report on the museums.  The National Gallery has a Dan Flavin show.  Even if you have seen his fluorescent light works in Marfa, Texas or at Dia:Beacon this exhibition is worthwhile.  My favorite piece is "untitled (honor of Harold Joachim) 3", a corner installation that graces the cover of Dan Flavin: The Complete Lights.  The new National Museum of the American Indian has a temporary show of George Morrison wood collages.  Morrison was a 20th century Chippewa artist.  The cafeteria is fantastic.  The rest of the American Indian museum is worth seeing in the sense that a train wreck is fascinating.  The project cost more than $220 million and is kind of a sick supersized parody of Frank Lloyd Wright's NY Guggenheim.  There is a huge cylindrical atrium that is basically empty and that barely relates to the exhibits, which are well off to the side in dark claustrophobic galleries.  The artwork and artifacts are dimly lit and crammed into crowded display cases.  Compared to the anthropology museum in Mexico City or the average American Indian museum in Oklahoma or South Dakota this new Smithsonian is a depressing example of the current state of American non-profit organization management.  It reminds one of the disappointing Udvar-Hazy Air and Space annex at Dulles Airport, where nearly $1 billion seems to have been invested in the kind of museum that Polynesian cargo cultists might have built.  I.e., a lot of interesting objects (airplanes) are displayed but the assumption is that they can't be understood or explained.

The Art of Cats:
The Katte nkabinet (Cat Cabinet, the Cat Museum) of Amsterdam: a collection of objects d'art wholly centered around the theme of the cat, among which you will find a wonderful gallery including Picasso. Controversial social taboos are not avoided. Malaysia's Cat City of Kuching has a Cat Museum; more info on the Museum of Meows he re (Ancient Egyptians shaved their eyebrows in mourning when the family cat died. Malays attached superstitions to cats believing they possessed supernatural powers...) The scullery of Kathleen Mann's Antiques in London's High Street has a "Purrfect Museum" too, with 250 exhibits from all over the world going back to the 1770s, founded by Kathleen and her mother ... Kitty. Not to be outdone, Lith uania and Russia have cat museums as well.

Framley Museum. 'The museum was founded in 1882 when objects of local interest began to gather in the field where the museum now stands, due to the natural action of the wind and rain. '
'In 1886, visionary Whoft philanthropist, Manimal MacCorkindale proposed building some walls around the objects, forming Framley's first museum. A door fitted in 1932 cemented the museum's popularity.'

Music Museum to Get Wi-Fi

Music Museum to Get Wi-Fi 12/08/2003 04:45 PM
I wrote a story for the Seattle Times about a planned wireless network at the Experience Music Project: The rock museum, built by Paul Allen, plans to offer the network to visitors but also use it for a variety of internal functions. One plan is to use the network to stream audio and video to handheld devices that visitors can carry around through the exhibits. I'm not sure I did a very good job of conveying how interesting this project is. For those of you who aren't familiar with the EMP or haven't seen pictures, it's a Frank Gehry building that looks like a bunch of colorful lumps glued together. I would imagine that building a wireless network there would be a nightmare, given the structure doesn't have a single right angle. I'll be interested to check back with the folks at EMP in a couple of months when more of the network should be in place to hear about the experience. Then I'd like to check in again next summer to see how many of the ambitious applications are actually in place....
