Reality Tunnel Photo Project 
  [link] Guardian Camera Club: Andrew Smith on conceptual photography Andrew Smith participates in the conceptual photography assignment. Croydon promises to be the perfect setting for this visual exploration of Robert Anton Wilson's extraordinary ideas. 'Tunnel Reality 1' leads us from the daylight, and down into the dark; No. 2 shows underground reflections in a spherical mirror; No. 3 is a neon lit concrete wasteland. No. 4 has a vertiginous perspective, leading to a vanishing point of light; No. 5 shows our hero reflected in a metal eye, seemingly about to blink. In No. 6 a woman pushes a pram towards us, less conceptual perhaps, but loaded with symbolism. Photos 3 and 4 have just the right feel and look, and fulfill this assignment perfectly... more »

Happy Pynchonmas Eve 
  Let's stop the War on Pynchonmas! Put the Pynch in Pynchonmas. Pynchon seems the reason for the season. One of my tenth graders just made a terrific video of Pynchon's "Entropy".

Zizek says God is in pain 
  It felt somewhat overwhelming to be in the same room with Slavoj Zizek at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre in San Francisco and meeting him in person last night. Despite the subject (Starbucks, belief system, occupy movement, toilets) his intensity and passion dominate. For me, it has been one of those festive altered state of mind experinces and... more »
