About me
Thoughts on asking stupid questions:

Socrates: Then we must begin again at the beginning and ask what holiness is [, s]ince I shall not willingly give up until I learn. And do not scorn me, but by all means apply your mind now to the utmost and tell me the truth; for you know, if anyone does, and like Proteus, you must be held until you speak.... I am sure you think you know what is holy and what is not. So tell me, most excellent Euthyphro, and do not conceal your thought.
Source: Plato, Euthyphro (ca. 380 B.C.E.), 15cff. (link)

 An incredible collection of illustrations of strange and beautiful shapes taken from nature: microscopic organisms, fungi, sea animals, etc. Hard to describe, but worth a look.

POPSSlavoj Žižek on the Matrix, #2
enbar
by enbar  1-19-2008    1
 Another Žižek essay, "Welcome to the Desert of the Real," from 2001. Also on my reading list. Looks more closely at the images of violence and devastation and their role in the popular, post-9/11 imagination.

 What a great idea. Collaborative tagging and description for publicly-owned, historic photos. Some creative thought re copyrights as well -- they've introduced a new designation, "No known copyright restrictions." Cool.

POPS"People who are just meat now, man" (Denis Johnson, short story)
enbar
by enbar  1-11-2008   
 I love this writer. He's a genius. I need to get his most recent book. This is an excerpt from "Steady Hands at Seattle General," a short story of his almost entirely in dialogue form, published in the collection "Jesus's Son" (1997, I think).
