sixteen enjoys Waking Life When it was over, all I could think about was how this entire notion of one's self, what we are, is just this logical structure....a place to momentarily house all the abstractions. It was a time to become conscious, to give form and coherence to the mystery...and I had been a part of that. It's a gift. Life was raging all around me, and every moment was magical. I loved all the people, dealing with all the contradictory impulses. That's what I loved the most, connecting with the people. Looking back, that's all that really mattered. 030715

sixteen you know...I Have the DVD, and I remember watching the extras...but recently someone was describing some stuff in the extras and it was anything BUT familiar. *sigh* so I don't know...
but its in Hawaii right now, so I'll have to wait a few weeks til I get to watch it again.

sixteen oh YEAH, also...
there is a reference to Philip K Dick in the last scene (Linklater mentions him)...and he basically describes an essay he wrote called "How To Build A Universe That Doesn't Fall Apart In Two Days" (philip K Dick 1978)

I found it online somewhere, printed it out (about 15 pages), and I just got done reading it. I think you'd (jane) like it--search online and I'm sure you could find a copy.
