I’m into the first few chapters of Kevin Kelly’s “What Technology Wants” and it turns out to be a history of the earth by way of our technological development. The scope of this book is truly awe inspiring, and presents technology in its evolution over time from the first fire (an extension of our stomach) […]

Peter Jackson’s “Forgotten” Masterpiece
Peter Jackson knows how to create a spectacle. Whether its 300,000 orc-slime laying siege to the city of Gondor or a lawnmower-wielding Norman Bates-style character destroying his zombie mother in a 100 gallon bloodbath finale or the sweetness of two teenage lesbian killers. In my opinion, however, Forgotten Silver is his most spectacular film ever. Half mockumentary, […]
David v. Goliath – The next game changer?

Read the rest of the kickness here. […]
Corporate Powers Set to Reap Untold Billions from Africa
Tax avoidance, secret mining deals and financial transfers are depriving Africa of the benefits of its resources boom, ex-UN chief Kofi Annan has said. Firms that shift profits to lower tax jurisdictions cost Africa $38bn (£25bn) a year, says a report produced by a panel he heads. “Africa loses twice as much money through […]
Sum Response to Nuclear War
Is it not a little strange how little of a response there has been to North Korea detonating a damn Nuclear Bomb last week? On top of which they have threatened South Korea with “final destruction”. After ‘prologue’ that was the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, has the world finally opened to Chapter 1 of […]
Danzel pulls off yet another amazing character with Flight! Also, dat crash, one of the best ever!
Denzel Washington, arguably one of the greatest actors of all time has hit it out of the park once again. The metaphors are high and the reality is low in the tale of addition and control. Airplanes off apart just as the soul of Denzel’s character, Whip, is spiraling out of control. Everything in Flight […]

Jay Mark Johnson – Time over Space
Just wanted to promote a great artist. I love this guy’s take on perception. “A provocative blend of lyricism and scientific scrutiny, perhaps the most exciting aspect of Johnson’s photography is that it tugs photography away from the gravitational pull of Euclidean documentation–which has dominated the field since its beginnings–and prods it towards new and […]
Cultural of Pedophilia in Islam
This is one of the those articles that is scary true, or an inflammatory piece of propaganda. Whatever the case may be, the U.S. Army has just release an updated training manual for soldiers in Afghanistan. It is resigned to deal with the rampant pedophilia, Islamic homosexual conduct, advocating women’s rights and anything related to […]
