Chicago's public sculpture can't be
photographed by the public

Chicago's public sculpture can't be
photographed by the public 02/07/2005 02:07 AM
Cory Doctorow: Chicago spent $270 million on its Millennium Park, placing a big public sculpture by Anish Kapoor in the middle of it, bought with public money. Woe betide any member of the public who tries to photograph this sculpture, though: it's a copyrighted sculpture and Chicago is spending even more money policing Chicagoans who try to photograph it and make a record of what their tax-dollars bought.

If I were them, I'd ask for my money back. What kind of jerk sculptor sells the city a piece of public art for a public park and then demands that no one take pictures of it? Christ, they should run this guy out of town on a rail and melt the goddamned sculpture down for scrap. Then they should fire the politician who signed a purchase contract that reserved the photographic rights and run him out of town on the same rail. Between the artist's greed and the procurement officer's malfeasance, this is about the vilest display of human venality I've heard of all day.

The copyrights for the enhancements in Millennium Park are owned by the artist who created them. As such, anyone reproducing the works, especially for commercial purposes, needs the permission of that artist.

House, MD

House, MD 04/14/2005 06:15 AM

The Idea: Go watch House MD now. Way too good to last. The last time I recommended a television series (Karen Sisco, and the recommendation was due to early-episode writing by creator Elmore Leonard), it was the kiss of death. I seem to have had this effect on the handful of good television series over the past decade: The Big Easy, Dave's World, Reasonable Doubts, Max Bickford and the best of them all, Aaron Sorkin's Sports Night. What distinguished all of these series was excellent writing: You didn't even have to watch -- you could enjoy just listening to the smart, quirky dialogue, and the rich, carefully woven story-lines. So I'm almost afraid to go to bat for the latest well-written drama (on the Faux network yet -- sheesh), House MD. The show features British theatrical actor (accent undetectable) Hugh Laurie as the eponymous Dr. Gregory House MD, brilliant but bitter medical specialist, whose team must solve the medical mysteries lesser minds have given up on. Some of the medical cases are intriguing, usually with wry twists, but the real magic in the program is the dialogue, which sparkles and hasn't an ounce of fat on it. The writing is mostly done (I think -- writing credits are hard to catch in Hollywood productions) by Sara Cooper and Lawrence Kaplow, who were last seen as the writers of Hack, the short-lived and claustrophobic (but also cleverly-scripted) drama that featured David Caruso as a disgraced cop working as a cabbie. I've seen quite a few well-written shows destroyed by studio and network hacks insisting on more 'human interest' (i.e. improbable 'cute' romances that are dragged out like soap opera story lines), more 'action' (i.e. simpler shorter dialogue and more implausible disasters with ample shouting and shooting), or more 'conflict' (i.e. black-hat stereotypes that conspire and do inconceivably mean things to impossibly good guys, also a soap opera staple). The Pretender actually took a soap opera actor and, thanks to good writing, made him engaging and heroic -- but the hacks dumbed down the show and refocused it on the conspiracy of 'the center' and the absurd Snidely Whiplash-level nastiness of the antagonists. The (anti-)hero was reduced to a comic book caricature and the program became unwatchable. Same thing happened to Max Bickford, which started brilliantly but was soon forced by the studio to introduce more romance and bigger roles for the young actors on the show (i.e. shed the older-demographic skew because advertisers know older viewers buy less, and less impulsively). Richard Dreyfuss could have been excused if he had murdered the producers, who reduced a show of great promise to pathetic drivel and may have wrecked Dreyfuss' career in the process. Maybe it's a good thing that some of the best shows never lasted long enough to be polluted and dragged down by the pathetic media-oligopoly moneygrubbers who run the studios and networks and care only for ratings points among their most unsophisticated viewers. The consequence is the flood of cheap 'reality' dreck that has filled the schedules and made shows like House stand out so remarkably. The attempt by the hacks to damage House is clearly evident (the hospital administrators are predictably corrupt and ludicrously manipulative and out to 'get' our hero -- they force him in the latest episode to choose between firing one of his brilliant interns or shilling for a new overpriced drug; and the way-too-pretty young people on the staff are being given more close-ups and featured in vapid, simple subplots) but what is remarkable is that the show seems to have found a way to accommodate this interference without losing its edge. A particularly fine episode, Fidelity, has a convoluted, stunning plot and a merciless, horrifyingly human ending. It would make a wonderful stage play. And House's spare and savage come-backs and asides are still original, lovingly crafted and totally believable. House is tailor-made to be the stereotypical rude and short-tempered medical specialist, yet Laurie and the writers refuse to allow him to be caricaturized -- with each episode he grows deeper and more engaging and complex. Catch it while you can. House is way too smart for its own good, especially on that network. As a real-life doctor said in his review of the show on imdb: "Somewhere there is a team of writers who actually know their craft, and an acting ensemble that knows how to pull it off. Now I can watch my TV one hour a week." I'm with you, doctor.

Going Public Ain't What It Used To Be

Going Public Ain't What It Used To Be 05/25/2004 11:55 AM
Ah, yes, the buzz of the IPO is back. However, as this article points out pretty clearly, too many companies believe that going public in 2004 will be just like going public in 1999. However, the times are quite different, and some companies are realizing that, even if the IPO window looks wide open right now, going public is costly, and it may not be the windfall they're hoping for. At the same time, the article suggests that the increased difficulty in going public will play into the hands of big, established companies who realize that their tiny competitors won't be able to raise tons of cash on Wall Street. Of course, if you read the details of the article, you realize that the companies that won't be able to raise so much Wall Street cash are in that position for a reason: they're not ready to be a public company. They're usually more of a one product company, rather than a real, sustainable business offering. Basically, the entire article can be summed up by saying "companies that shouldn't go public will find it more difficult to go public these days." That seems like a good thing. The only problem is that too many one-product companies don't realize they shouldn't be public, and still hope to cash out like it's 1999. While some of their investors certainly realize that the companies are too young to be public, investors like the idea of cashing out - and are likely to push those companies to go public anyway, which may be troublesome for their long term prospects.

MLB.com May Go Public?

MLB.com May Go Public? 08/03/2004 12:32 PM
Major League Baseball is always claiming that they're about to go broke, though it seems like it's more due to some questionable accounting than anything else. However, one "bright" spot appears to be their "Advanced Media" division, which earlier this year announced plans to run the web operations of other sports. The group hasn't been without its problems. They had trouble staying online when they launched and they still seem to be having some problems underst anding that they can't own facts as they attempt to claim control over anyone explaining what's happening in a game unless they've first paid MLB.com. Either way, MLB.com apparently wants to take advantage of an open IPO window for .coms and may try to go public this fall. Now, the timing is especially interesting. The plan, according to the article, is to go public right around the World Series. While they wouldn't necessarily be hyping themselves, it does make you wonder if that will cause some trouble with the SEC's "quiet period." A lot of attention will be geared towards MLB.com during the World Series, and it could raise questions about how fair an IPO at that time would be. Any proceeds from the IPO would be split among the teams who funded the project -- and will then promptly be placed in the owners' pockets rather than on anything useful for the game of baseball.

I was with my parents today in CT.  My father just bought a Sony HDTV and he wanted to buy an HDTV package from his local cable company:  Cablevision (a $7.3 b marketcap company that has 3 m subscribers).  Unfortunately, the information on the Website was disorganized, which made it difficult to understand the options available.  We did find a page  on the site that advertised a number to call for HDTV services.  We assumed, based on the language in the page that this number would provide us with a way to check on HDTV availability and allow us to order the HDTV cable box.  Very simple expectations.  We called the number.  Rather than routing us directly to a sales rep, we were put through two voicemail menu trees and finally were told that the wait for a rep was 9 min.Our conclusion:  let's hang-up and try Direct TV. 

It's amazing to contemplate a company that is worth so much but is so badly run.  It is very easy to provide prospective customers with a phone number that routes them directly to a knowledgeable sales rep.  Too bad these highly paid execs are so out of touch to understand that simple truth.

The Wege House

The Wege House 02/01/2005 09:08 PM

For the Yo-Yo Ma types who find the insatiable and immediate urge to play a stringed instrument at the drop of a wig, all you must do at The Wege House is don rosin-powdered gloves and have at it on any of the house's integrated instruments. The House architecture becomes the resonating chamber of the instruments, with strings precisely lined, allowing you to be completely surrounded by the music.

We have chosen to explore in our time on Earth an idea: Could we increase the size of the instrument and walk inside? To walk inside the instrument and play the instrument is to feel the sound in your body, within your bones and within your mind.

You certainly couldn't increase the New Age Zen-meets-Honey I Shrunk The Kids philosophy. Pictures and videos give you some idea, but I can't imagine it adequately capturing the experience.

In a secret ballot Wednesday afternoon, the House Republican leadership ousted Veterans' Affairs Committee Chairman Christopher Smith, R-N.J., and replaced him with Rep. Steve Buyer of Indiana. At first glance, dumping Smith in favor of one of his colleagues might seem out of keeping for the Republicans, who normally avoid infighting. But Wednesday's vote wasn't so much a fight as a takedown.
