A Collection Of Poems, Quotes, Jokes, and Trivias from around the World. About The Gathering Blog Owner. Loving you was easy,. Losing you was hard. Loving you is still easy,. But knowing you are no longer mine,. Is the hardest of it all. If you could choose between life. And death you would almost rather die,. Love is fun but hurts. So much the price you pay is high. And so I say don’t fall in love,. You will get hurt before your through. You see my friend,. I ought to know,. I fell in love with you.

Desiring Machines | One Dimensional Man
https://disruptedoriginal.wordpress.com/2011/01/07/desiring-machines
A three-dimensional take on one-dimensional culture. Those who have bravely assimilated themselves with the appropriate technology already live a largely virtual existence. Their social interactions are mapped by the discursive patterns and instantaneous timings of digital technology; mediated via a keyboard, a touchscreen, a webcam or microphone. Why do we desire machines in this way? Share on Facebook (Opens in new window). Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window). Trackback ( 0 ). Comments ( 0 ).

A three-dimensional take on one-dimensional culture. Originally intended as an off-the-wall blog for the intellectual discussion of video games, this site now follows a more culturally egalitarian approach, where films, television, videogames and any other form of popular culture is fair game for intelligent analysis and/or juvenile ridicule.

Virtual Tumbleweed | One Dimensional Man
https://disruptedoriginal.wordpress.com/2010/12/26/virtual-tumbleweed
A three-dimensional take on one-dimensional culture. Since this blog still gets a surprising amount of hits, and since I also haven’t been able to keep content flowing nearly as freely as I would’ve liked, I’ve decided that a change in policy is in order. The good news is that I will be attempting to update in a much more regular fashion in future. The bad news is that it will mostly be in the annoying blogging style that I swore would never befall this place. Share on Facebook (Opens in new window).

Freedom Is Dead, And Why It Doesn’t Matter | One Dimensional Man
https://disruptedoriginal.wordpress.com/2009/12/17/freedom-is-dead-and-why-it-doesn’t-matter
A three-dimensional take on one-dimensional culture. Freedom Is Dead, And Why It Doesn’t Matter. Freedom in the FPS is an archaic and false concept. A relic of that childlike sense of wonder in the possibilities of three dimensional gameplay. It speaks more to the obsession of technology than it does in delivering a satisfying experience. This is perfectly ok. Let’s just let it go. Half-Life 2: A dichotomy of freedom and linearity. Of course, the environment still has to be restricted in some way so that...

February | 2011 | One Dimensional Man
https://disruptedoriginal.wordpress.com/2011/02
A three-dimensional take on one-dimensional culture. Archive for February, 2011. Review: The White Ribbon. Is a film where narrative threads are rarely succinctly tied. A child wears the white ribbon. Village of the Damned. Feels too consciously drawn, and its presence within the film detracts from the dramatic charge of its subject matter. Worthy of note is the picture’s haunting use of mise-en-scene, which manages to captivate the screen with silent authority. It is unusual for a film of Haneke to ...
