on “The fake artists problem on streaming platforms” ↗That's the plot of Norman Spinrad's book Little heroes.

on “An odd discovery on Spotify” ↗The Road To Reality - Roger Penrose. Slowly, step by step. Neuromancer - William Gibson. 6th or 7th time through.

History Of Film- David Parkinson. A short survey text, sort of a review for me.
