we live in public


I was struck by the character of this film.  I thought it was going to be a doc on the internet and in comes this guy Josh Harris, who before the film I had never heard of,  this insane, genius character who became a millionaire during the dot com era, but he's pushing boundaries by living life to it's fullest and acting very warholian, very inspiring compared to our safe environment in 2010, but was his art that he put out, something that will stand the test of time? just because your warholian, doesn't make you warhol....but the film is interesting and his taste for pushing life to it's fullest is worth noting and we realize that art and our lives have become somewhat boring sitting in front of our computers screens interacting with who? not sure, why? no reason? risks? sometimes!

radiohead, kexp, cool...vanilla sky...more random thoughts....ok, back to the film....yes, we live in public, but why not live interesting lives in front of people, why not create art and music and love with your good friends all the time and to not tell every person in the world about it would be a mistake.
