[parrotwatcher]

What movie genres do some of the ROs like and dislike?

The One Chosen:

Ædmund: Likes: Feel good family movies. Dislikes: Anything that seems overly cruel.

Helena: Likes: Adventure fantasy or sci fi movies. Dislikes: Disaster movies.

Teri: Likes: Romance, especially if it’s very awkward. Dislikes: Anything with too many fight scenes.

Charlie: Likes: Martial arts movies. (He also likes ballet and dance, but won’t admit it.) Dislikes: Political drama.

Xiulan: Likes: Superhero movies. Dislikes: Anything she considers boring (so pretty much anything without fight scenes or jokes).

Max: Likes: Horror movies. Dislikes: Comedies (horror comedies are okay, though).

Dahlia: Likes: Classic movies are her favourites, but she’ll watch anything. She’s even made it a life goal to watch all of the Wikipedia list of worst movies of all time. She claims to have found something to like in every movie she’s ever seen.

Kevin: Likes: Animated movies about animals. Dislikes: Any movie in which an animal is hurt.

Lovecraft Academy (using period-accurate movies):

Veera: Is just fascinated by the idea of moving pictures, and has watched as many as he can.

Fothy: Conversely, Fothy’s just not really a fan of movies at all. He’ll watch them with his friends, but he’d never choose to see a movie. (He does appreciate Tarzan movies, though…)

Robin: Adventure movies. His favourite is the 1922 Robin Hood (not just because of the shared name, but that doesn’t hurt).

Will: Comedies. He’s a big fan of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton.

Jasper: Doesn’t really like the movies, but is a fan of cartoon shorts, especially Felix the Cat.

Bignell: Another fan of adventure movies, but he’s more into Westerns specifically.

Unearth your Gays:

Toby: Likes movies set in and around the sea; dislikes zombie movies.

Seth: Likes sexy movies; dislikes anything too sincere.

Aiden: Likes harmless family movies; dislikes anything with blood.

Lan: Likes movies involving cats; dislikes movies in which cats are in peril.

Totem Force:

Kay: Likes romance and action movies, as long as they're not too clichéd. Dislikes mean-spirited and bigoted stuff, but has no real disliked genre.

Sammy: Likes movies with at least a decade's-worth of backstory and lore he can explain to anyone present; dislikes anything with contradictions and retcons.

Anara: Likes movies with high-quality special effects; dislikes movies with inaccurate science (although given how much she clearly likes complaining about them, maybe she actually likes them, too...)

Chi: Likes underdog stories; dislikes anything too chichéd.

Phil: Likes martial arts movies (or anything with good fight scenes); dislikes romance movies.

Ryu: He'll claim the same as Phil, but he actually really likes sappy, over-the-top family movies, and dislikes anything involving dead family members.

Akira: Likes almost anything exciting; dislikes anything that reminds them too much of Ryu.

Lani: Likes cute cartoons, especially those with a lot of pink; dislikes violent movies (now, real-life violence, on the other hand...)

Mirabelle: Seems to have no preferred genres; her likes and dislikes are seemingly entirely random.

Kevin Bignell - Deep River

[atoms-and-bits-blog]

Hackers are humans too.

I started reading ‘Hacked: A radical approach to hacker culture and crime’ the other day, and the anthropologist in me was hooked. Through a vibrant ethnographic exploration, Kevin F. Steinmetz has managed to draw out the motivation, skill and humanity behind the ‘craft’ of hacking. Yes. Craft. 

And so, I decided that the law on computer misuse deserved a second look.

We’re taught as law students to view hacking as criminal, to put it in a box of ‘unauthorised’ ‘antisocial’ behaviour and leave the judges to impose their retributive justice. However, the law is an absolute struggle fest. I’m not just talking about prosecution rates, I’m talking about substantive oversights and regulatory undersights (is that a word?). Consider R v Cuthbert in which the defendant, wanting to ensure his charitable donation was actually going to the right people, fell afoul of s.1 of the Computer Misuse Act 1990 when he tested the website’s security. Or Bignell, in which the court determined that unauthorised access was completely distinct from that of unauthorised purpose; an arguably nonsensical decision.

We therefore turn, as one must, to the challenge of regulating the Internet and the following two policy approaches that demonstrate how our current approach to low-level cybercrime can be altered.

Kevin Steinmetz contends that by demystifying the social construction of hacking, legislators would be better equipped to develop an effective regulatory response. In his words: ‘hacking is an intrinsically human social and cultural phenomenon’ (216), which has been criminalised by a capitalist society. This approach illustrates what was effectively missing from early cyber-legislation, focused mainly on emulating the law of trespass and preventing access to computer networks. By developing a cultural understanding of technologically skilled consumers, distinct from that of dangerous criminals, the Cuthbert case would have had a very different outcome.

Furthermore, cultural and practical understandings of computer culture have already proved useful for software developers, who now benefit from exceptions under the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

Stefan Fafinski suggests that domestic criminal law is inappropriate on its own to control computer misuse. In particular, Fafinski argues that theoretical understandings of criminal law fail to provide a justification for its wide application in the area of computer misuse. Instead, he advocates for a ‘constellation of control’ consisting of global extra-legal solutions. I find Fafinski’s proposal particularly interesting as he suggests that in order to effectively moderate this form cybercrime, regulative responses must attempt to mirror the digital architecture of the internet. More specifically, regulation must employ flexible, extra jurisdictional solutions on both state and individual levels in order to be effective.

In sum, the law of computer misuse has suffered a particularly turbulent history. Its critics have sighted lack of solid theoretical basis, of cultural sensitivity and a one-track regulatory response as the cause. However, there is hope. With many parts of internet law, it takes a Lessig-like recognition of competing influences in order to make this work.

A pretty little 8 note bassoon riff, looped to infinity & decorated here & there with spare instrumentation: piano, clarinet & a Roland 303 + a muttered spoken vocal here & there.

[quinncesar69]

Beautiful

[quinncesar69]

Groovy

[quinncesar69]

Just a scuzzy vocal & a scuzzy guitar...cracking tune!

[quinncesar69]

Influenced by Vernon Elliott & Mike Barson...this is a soundtrack to a TV show that only exists in Kev's own head. This is just a pretty little piano piece with a bassoon.

There is a richer fuller version of this with beats, bells & whistles by Jack Zevo on youtube too

[quinncesar69]

Johnny Mathis did this originally in 1963 - it wasn't a massive hit.

In 1965 Ireland's Dickie Rock did a version & that version went straight in at number one in the Irish charts.

THIS version may lack the orchestral grandeur of the previous versions but it's lovely all the same ...& it's a tribute to Dickie & Johnny.

Produced by Jack Zevo

Kudos

[quinncesar69]

Moon.... Bassoon on the moon....

Hard to describe this tune really....it's fairly minimal: just a bassoon, piano, clarinet & a Roland 303 synth (with the occasional vocal here & there).

Baroque electro anybody?
