So Totally Automatic

Oh, this is just TOO funny. [livejournal.com profile] shadowscast had a post about using MS Word's Autosummary function to pull up 100-word drabbles from long fics that are so Dada that it's absolutely inspiring. Of course I had to try it. Witness: Fun With AutoSummary, Dirty Back Road Version )

Culture, and Why It Matters

Peter Sellars State of Cinema address from the 2007 San Francisco International Film Festival.

Read, it's enlightening.
