I had paused Hypernormilzation on the mid point when it got to AI and the picture of the screen was a one of these guys [0] and I just had it that way and kind of wondered why I prefer to just hear his work as as podcast as I do other stuff rather than hyper focus on the screen. This explains my latent feelings of the absurdity on screen rather well. His documentaries have so much exposition that you can kind of look up the topics on your own as you go along to try and compare and contrast the facts as they're narrated, his work is probably my first foray with interactive TV. 0: https://youtu.be/MRx2nskdAgY?t=12 https://youtu.be/MRx2nskdAgY?t=12

- konjin 6y agoIt's an artsy version of the Gish Gallop. I enjoy the aesthetics of the documentaries though.
- krrrh 6y agoI really disliked Curtis after many people had told me that I would love him. I think it was because people talk about his films as if they he was a historian, or they were documentaries. Then I read someone refer to him as a political artist, and through that framing I now think he's pretty interesting.
