Philip Guo - Geek behaviors present during conversations
january 2010 by jtth
This article presents some common behaviors I've observed from my past few years of interactions with geeks, nerds, and other highly-smart technical people. For brevity, I will simply use the term "geek" throughout this article as a catch-all term for such people. I don't mean to pass any value judgments on people who exhibit such behaviors; these are simply my observations and personal theories for why these behaviors occur

In New York, we are very occupied with getting from one place to another. I wondered: could a human-like object traverse sidewalks and streets along with us, and in so doing, create a narrative about our relationship to space and our willingness to interact with what we find in it? More importantly, how could our actions be seen within a larger context of human connection that emerges from the complexity of the city itself? To answer these questions, I built robots.

Drugs uncovered: The link between drugs and music | Society | The Observer
december 2008 by jtth
This is an amazing article. It discusses social orders, their drugs, and the music they spawned. It shows the beautiful feedback loop that results from all this. It lacks one critical piece of information: what's happening currently with experimental drugs whose names and natures aren't known outside of readers of Shulgin or Bluelight.
