The Gonzo Vision of Quentin Tarantino
The Gonzo Vision of Quentin Tarantino
Afterward, Tarantino and I are standing outside, when kids milling about start gathering up the nerve to approach him. After one does, a line forms. Tarantino talks to everyone, his grin never faltering, as fans profess their thanks and gratitude — for his movies, for the theater, for just talking to them. It seems as if he could keep this up all night, but he is hungry and his favorite nearby restaurant will stop serving soon.
Before he heads off, I mention how remarkable the communal experience of watching a movie on a screen with a large and willing audience is — and with an actual print — after seeing so much television alone or renting movies online. Tarantino nods, and uses our last few moments together to rally one more time against the »

Shooting Better Sit-down Interviews with a Mobile
Shooting interviews with any camera is a challenge. Doing it well with a mobile can often make it even more difficult. But mobile also has some advantages. The cameras are pretty simple, upload immediately and share content significantly faster.
In August I had to shoot some interviews with a mobile during a residency I did at Ideo, a global design firm with a human-centered, design-based approach. I was lucky enough to spend two weeks with them this past August. I want to share some of what I learned about shooting interviews with a mobile.
the Russians and the Moon
(as told by my astronomy prof, and I don’t bother to fact check because it’s too fucking great). My people are assholes and I am so proud.
so. the Moon has seas, those splashes of the darker basalt rock. and as we had no problems seeing them, they all have nice sounding Latin names, Sea of Tranquility, Ocean of Cries, etc.
the far side of the Moon, however, we haven’t seen much of. and the general consensus of the International Astronomical Union was that if someone were to fly over, take pictures and discover another sea, it has to be named after a state of mind, following the pattern.
