World's biggest Devo fan

World's biggest Devo fan 04/09/2005 03:27 PM
Xeni Jardin: Profile of Michael Pilmer, a 38-year-old Devo fanatic whose awesome collection of band memorabilia consists of thousands of items. He's now webmaster for the Devo website. Boing Boing reader (and my old-school pal) Charles O'Donovan says, "This guy used to work for Alienskin Software who make awesome plugins for Photoshop. I met him a few years ago."

Snip from story:

The little white house in Oakwood doesn't look like a shrine. But step through the door and into Michael Pilmer's world. Gaze in awe at the massive autographed poster of Devo above the dining room table, the authentic Devo concert costumes, the Devo pins and shirts and ephemera carefully arrayed throughout the house.

Yes, here in Raleigh, half a block from Oakwood Cemetery, is the planet's biggest collection of artifacts from the band best known for the 1980 hit "Whip It."

"It's the ADD that keeps me going, I guess," says Pilmer, 38, a tall, lanky redhead (it's dyed) in a homemade T-shirt with Mickey Mouse sitting on a toilet. "I'm definitely kind of obsessive, so I just figured I would channel that into one thing."

I've been apologizing to Europeans here about these idiots - called our government. I explain that there are two Amerikas right now - the two coasts and big cities - and all the rest.

I understand rich people votinmg for Bush - and clearly they'll steal the election (liek Osama is going to be found in late october - mark my words) - but what's up with all these poor white trash, crackers and religous nuts?

Have they looked at their paychecks recently? Gas prices? Health costs? Remember the words from the song by Country Joe Fish: "be the first one on the block, to bring your boy right home in a box."

Bill Clinton's heart

Bill Clinton's heart 09/09/2004 11:07 AM

On the news, they're saying Bill Clinton will be fully recovered in two-three months. Not true. My doctors told me that full recovery would actually never come, that you never get as good as new, but that's okay, because the bypass surgery saved my life.

The rule my doctors told me, which proved to be right in my case, is that after one month you're halfway back, then after two months, three-quarters, and so on. A year after the surgery you're functioning pretty well, in fact probably better than you were before the surgery, because your heart wasn't working very well beforehand.

Another thing that seems to be true for all bypass survivors is that they put off seeing the heart doctor long after they know they have a problem. I explained this to a friend this way. Up to that point in your life you had worked through every physical problem through exercise, diet and rest, and it worked; esp muscle ills (the heart is a muscle). But this is the first time for many people (it was for me, and probably for Clinton too) that you couldn't exercise your way back to health. I think a lot of people die because of ths mistake. If you feel chest pain, go to the doctor, asap. It used to be a death sentence, a couple of generations ago, but now, it's a pretty normal procedure to fix the clogged coronary arteries.

That Clinton was striken with this, of course is not good news for him, but it is good news for everyone else (and maybe it will be good for him too). I didn't know that Henry Kissinger had bypass 20 years ago, as did Dick Cheney. They're still walking around. Now what my cardiologist said makes more sense. He said I should think of my lifespan in decades, not years. I didn't really believe it, but now I do. Knock wood, praise Murphy, I am not a lawyer, etc.

Anyway, getting a good look at your mortality, up close and personal, can make for great transformations. I was able to visualize my own death so clearly, I decided to accept it, and act as if I had died. I did what my heirs would have done with my belongings, I filled four dumpsters and sold the house, but I kept the money. I went to Harvard, a great move, and then after 1.5 years, went on the road. No regrets.

One thing you learn after visualizing your own death, is that if people cared a bit about what you think while you're alive, you can be absolutely sure they won't care what you thought (past tense) after you're dead. So why bother caring what you think while you're alive. So much time is wasted trying to prove you're right. You're not right, neither am I.

On my travels I met a couple struggling in their marriage. They told me their story. It was pretty personal. Afterwards, processing the conversation, I realized one thing. How much happier they would be if they stopped caring about being right. Having a lover who wants to be with you can be a totally joyous thing, but people make it so complicated. Do yourself a favor, write off the idea of being right, and just seek pleasure and helping other people, esp the person you love, and by all means help yourself. You may have decades, but they'll pass pretty quickly, might as well have some fun?

Now back to Bill Clinton. Having bypass unlocked all this energy for me, and look what I've done with the new chance I got. Now imagine the power that Bill Clinton has, one of a handfull of livng ex-presidents, a rich man, with nothing but possibilities. He could really make a difference. I remember hearing him speak at Davos in 2000, he was an inspiration. Find a shared vision, he said. Indeed. A man of Clinton's power, freed of any idea that what he thinks means anything, could really make a difference, and I think he will. But give him a year to work through all the michegas, emotional and physical, before he's ready to resume his place in the world, fully.

Free Wi-Fi in Auckland's Heart

Free Wi-Fi in Auckland's Heart 05/31/2004 11:23 PM
Auckland City and ISP sponsor free Wi-Fi for June in central business district: Reach Wireless, which uses RoamAD's Wi-Fi mesh technology, has launched its central business district (CBD) service in New Zealand's Auckland City. The CBD and Reach are sponsoring free Wi-Fi with a downtown purchase through the month of June as a promotion. RoamAD's CEO Martin Levy said that service speeds range from 500 Kbps to 1.5 Mbps throughout the three-kilometer-square covered area. Pavements have been marked with a "Wi-Fi Zone" tag, and people in orange suits--I'm checking on why orange--and hard hats are handing out information packets during June. Regular service costs are NZ$8.50 (US$5.27) for an hour, NZ$16.95 (US$10.50) for a day, NZ$49.95 ($30.97) for monthly users that the press release describes as "light" (600 megabytes of transfer), and NZ$74.95 ($46.47) for "uncapped reasonable use service": 10 gigabytes per month after which your service speed may be capped at 256 Kbps....

The robot heart of software

The robot heart of software 07/19/2004 02:47 PM
Isaac Asimov was one of the science fiction authors whose works I avidly consumed when I was in my early adolescence, and though even then I could tell that his writing lacked a certain level of nuance and style, I loved it for its cleverness and its imagination. Standing at the podium at science fiction conventions, expounding on any subject under the sun, he was like a polymath Woody Allen with the neurosis circuits disabled, and his optimistic rationalism -- even in the 1970s, an era during which optimism was hard to make credible -- was infectious. (Read Cory Doctorow's apprecia tion of Asimov in Wired for more.)

So I don't think I'll be able to bear going to see the new movie "inspired by" his "I, Robot" stories -- those inventive chestnuts about what happens when robots programmed with "the three laws of robotics" tangle with the chaos of human affairs. (Chris Suellentrop in Slate offers an overview of how the movie betrays Asimov that makes me feel my decision is completely logical.) But I was glad to read this editorial in the Sunday New York Times, which thoughtfully nailed exactly what made these stories such fun:

Each of the stories in "I, Robot" works out a problem in the application of these laws, usually caused by an unforeseen implication or contradiction. Asimov's robots are perfectly logical, and therefore all the real problems are caused by humans, who are shockingly unaware of the way their intentions and emotions run counter to logic. What look like manufacturing flaws in the robots nearly always turn out to be faults in the way a command was articulated. Humans, it turns out, are mainly good at bossing other humans around. Our computers remind us of this every day.

The "I, Robot" stories, in other words, are exercises in logical debugging that happen to take the form of miniature mysteries.

Saying "the real problems are caused by humans" is, of course, awfully close to saying, "It's the user's fault!" -- an excuse that conscientious software developers and designers shun. Yet, as I dig deeper into work on my book about software, I'm learning a lot more about exactly how hard it is to make the absolute logic of computing serve the messy ambiguities of human desire, when all the pressure of the undertaking is to make things work the other way -- to force us human beings to conform to the rigorous precision of machines. Asimov's wonderful stories pre-imagined this dilemma for us. Maybe someday he'll find a filmmaker who can do his particular imagination justice.
