It's great to be able to time-shift media, but more and more lately I
wish I could media-shift as well. Consider this
fifty-minut
e interview1 with Jim Gray, on MSDN's Channel 9. Why
haven't I watched it yet? Not because I lack interest, or time, but
because the content isn't available in a format that suits the
kind
of time I have. In this case, the format would be audio, and the
kind of time would be walking-, jogging-, or driving-time.

Mel Gibson and the Passion movie
again...
03/08/2004 11:03 PMA man goes to see Mel Gibson's new movie, The Passion, and is
inspired to take his family to Israel to see the places where Jesus
lived and died. While on vacation his mother-in-law dies.
An undertaker in Tel Aviv explains that they can ship
the body home to Wisconsin at a cost of $10,000 or the mother-in-law
could be buried in Israel for US$500.
The man says, "We'll ship her home."
The undertaker asks, "Are you sure? That's an awfully big
expense and we can do a very nice burial here."
The man says, "Look, 2000 years ago they buried a guy here and
three days later he rose from the dead. I just can't take that
chance."
William Gibson interview
William Gibson interview
02/18/2004 10:53 AMHere's a great interview with William Gibson, who is on the road
promoting the paperback of his brilliant novel of apophenia run wild,
Pattern Recognition (see my
review, too).
"When you write a science-fiction novel set in some sort of
recognizable future, as soon as you finish it you have the dubious
pleasure of watching it acquire a patina of quaint technological
obsolescence. For instance, there are no cell phones in Neuromancer. I
couldn't have foreseen them. It would have seemed corny, like Dick
Tracy wrist radios."
And he never set out to predict how we might be living a few decades
hence. "I always assumed that social-science fiction - anything set on
Earth in a not-too-distant future - is just a mutant version of the
present. But the easiest hook to hang on me was that I was a futurist.
I had always maintained that I was squinting at the present in a
certain way."

Xeni Jardin:
On William Gibson's blog, a holiday-themed short which was originally
published as "Cyber-Claus", in
The Washington Post Book World
in 1991. Snip:
In the night of 12/24/07, though sensors woven through the very
fabric of the house had thus far registered a complete absence of
sentient bio-activity, I found myself abruptly summoned from a rare,
genuine and expensively induced examples of that most priceless of
states, sleep.
Even as I hurriedly dressed, I knew that dozens of telepresent
armed-response drones would already be sweeping in from the District,
skimming mere inches above the chill surface of the Potomac. Vicious
tri-lobed aeroforms that they were, they resembled nothing more than
the Martian war machines of George Pal’s 1953 epic, “The War of
the Worlds”.
And while, from somewhere far above, now, came that sound, that
persistent clatter, as though gunships disgorged whole platoons of
iron-shod mercenaries, I could only wonder: who? Was it my estranged
wife, Lady Betty-Jayne Motel-6 Hyatt, Chief Eco-Trustee of the Free
Duchy of Wyoming? Or was it Cleatus “Mainframe” Sinyard himself,
President of the United States and Perpetual Chairman of the Concerned
Smart People’s Northern Hemisphere CoProsperity Sphere?

comments on the Mel Gibson/Haiti posting
03/08/2004 11:03 PMHmm... this Manila software that Harvard runs seems to have
mislinked all the comments posted. I'm cutting and pasting some
manually and please feel free to use the comments button underneath
this posting to comment on the
original (below).
From Zoran Lazarevic:
Two hundred years in a
history of a nation is a short time to change human behavior without force. For one example,
think that slavery was abolished in the U.S. in 1865, but the first black generation that
grew in freedom and equality
was born in 1970s.
Compare today Serbs
living a couple of miles away: across the river Danube which marked the border between the
Austro-Hungarian empire (north) and the Ottoman empire (south). In the north, they live in
neatly painted houses lined
along geometrically straight roads, behind tall walls keeping
the privacy of their property.
Villages just south of Danube are hectically built around worn-out curvy roads, having short
transparent fences displaying
property in slight disarray. The north prides itself with culinary craft and the taste for fine
arts from Austria and Hungary. The south takes pride in warriorship and macho attitude,
and jokes about its own
widespread bribery.
Serbia proper was
liberated from the (Turkish) Ottoman Empire in the early 1800s, and united with the north in
1918. There is absolutely
no question, that if separated, the two regions would have very different economies. Just like there are vast differences
between other ex-Yugoslavia
states. And that is all after a century of common life, mostly under communism which tried to kill
out (pun intended) all differences in religion and
nationality.
From Fazal Majid:
You could blame
Lazare Carnot (d. 1823) for fathering Sadi Carnot (d. 1832), the
inventor of thermodynamics, and thus leading to global
warming...

William Gibson on John Shirley
William Gibson on John Shirley
03/20/2003 06:37 PMHere's William Gibson's introduction to John Shirley's proto-cyberpunk
novel, City Come a Walkin'.
Shirley made the plastic-covered Sears sofa that was the main body of
seventies sf recede wonderfully. Discovering his fiction was like
hearing Patti Smith's Horses for the first time: the archetypal form
passionately re-inhabited by a debauched yet strangely virginal
practitioner, one whose very ability to do this at all was constantly
thrown into question by the demands of what was in effect a
shamanistic act. There is a similar ragged-ass derring-do, the sense
of the artist burning to speak in tongues. They invoke their
particular (and often overlapping, and indeed she was one of his) gods
and plunge out of downscale teenage bedrooms, brandishing shards of
imagery as peculiarly-shaped as prison shivs.

A friend
clipped, scanned and e-mailed me this item from a recent edition of
the
Orlando Sentinel
(the article seems to have disappeared behind the paper's paid
firewall). The short piece mentions actor Mel Gibson's visit to a
religious convention in Florida, where he was promoting his upcoming
movie about Christ's death. (I haven't seen it, but some critics have
called the picture anti-Semitic, a charge Gibson has denied.)
As the clipping notes, a screening for some of pastors was arranged,
with one proviso. They had to sign a document in which they agreed to
say only nice things about the movie if they talked about it. Gibson
is free to pull such tricks, but no pastor with any integrity should
have gone along with this.
