我們都知道這種感覺。你在悲傷的夜晚失眠，或者在朦朧的週末清晨蹣跚而行，需要一些閱讀的東西，而那一堆未讀的書並不能阻止你。為什麼不從Twitter和RSS的消防水龍帶中休息一下，看看我們每週從網路上收集的關於技術、文化、媒體和未來的重要文章？當然，坐在Instapaper佇列中你會感到內疚的還有一件事，但總比再次在Twitter列表上徒勞地拉好。

特珠科爾寫了一個數字和日益社會攝影的奇妙崛起。

新調查：特珠科爾-斑點的東西：Instagram上的平卡索夫

We are left with optical discriminati*** and optical pleasures, and it is in this private space that the work regains its aura. In this sense, digital photography and social media, even though the tiny little screen can be irritating, are helping to introduce new criteria: there is no editioning, no signature, no date of printing. It will be a headache for curators in the future, but it’s a pleasure for the pure lover of the image: while lying in bed in the morning, you can see the latest work from a photographer you find interesting. The image comes to you.

在“活套”上

瑞安·約翰遜的《Looper》本週末上映，FILMCRITHULK對導演、漫畫大會和電影業的現狀發表了27000字的評論。是的，有一些破壞者。

EW:FILMCRITHULK-RIAN JOHNSON開啟了迴圈

BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE EQUATION THERE ARE HIGH-CONCEPT FILMS THAT EXIST AS A PALE SHADOWS OF THE REAL INNOVATION. STUDIO PEOPLE ARE SO DESPERATE TO JUSTIFY THE PROJECTS THEY CHOOSE THAT THEY ARE WILLING TO SINK TO THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR OF BRAND-RECOGNITION. THEY THEN "INNOVATE" BY BACKWARDLY-PRODUCING A "NEW, CLEVER IDEA" FROM THOSE EXISTING CONSTRUCTS. SNOW WHITE AS A BIG ACTION FILM STARRING KNOWN-VALUE KRISTEN STEWART? SURE THING!

論電影

大衛·博德威爾（David Bordwell）寫的是電影拉瑪背後的歷史，這是一種五六十年代的新奇電影技術。

電影藝術觀察：大衛·鮑德威爾——電影的任性魅力

When This Is Cinerama opened at the Broadway Theatre in Manhattan on 30 September 1952, it presented itself as the ultimate package of new entertainment technologies. It was of course in color, which was still something of a rarity in motion pictures. It used stereophonic sound, with five speakers behind the screen and two in the auditorium. The screen itself was a wonder: it was seventy-five feet wide and about 23 feet high, bent in a 146-degree arc. That made the display span fifty feet. Later, some screens would be nearly a hundred feet long and over thirty feet high.

論拖曳

利奧·特萊納講述了一個故事，他遇到了跟蹤他和他妻子的巨魔。

崔諾的眼睛：利奧崔諾-遇見一個巨魔。。。

I didn't mention it to my wife. Didn't see the point of worrying her. But then she joined Twitter to see what it was like and grew to enjoy it. It wouldn't have been immediately obvious to outsiders that we were man and wife. She made the mistake though of changing her profile to state that she was 'The long suffering wife of @LeoTraynor'. Not a good idea. She received a DM stating 'Your hu**and is scum. A rotten b*stard and you're a wh*re.' She laughed it off.

這十年毀了任何一個字比接觸？布萊恩·菲利普斯在看了133個小時的節目後，思考了下一代的遺產。

格蘭特蘭：布萊恩菲利普斯-計算機之愛

The Next Generation drew something like 20 million viewers a week in its heyday, practically an American Idol number, and the penetration of the show's keywords — energize, engage, Number One, I am Locutus of Borg, resistance is futile, make it so — was light-years beyond insane for a syndicated sci-fi show. But in a way, it's no wonder. The Enterprise crew was driving a misfiring IBM PC in the service of a quasi-neoliberal agenda, and at the same time, so were we.
