Thanks! it is a tough biz.

Thank you!

INTPs are only cool on the Internet.

i dont think so, i think was trying to be kind of anonymous. but! i've met other darby's but not another intp darby, so this is a little scary.

a doppelganger!

now that i think about it, actually, it might have been as simple as just swapping the axi variables in the equation. that seems dumb if it was that easy. i havent done math in so long.

in a calcII course, the teacher had a x,y,z axis graph on the board, with a line or a plane through it (i cant remember), and then he wrote the equation for it. then he erased the x,y,z and put them on different axi, like now it was y,z,x, like essentially rotating the graph around but keeping...

Hello. I was on here for a bit like a year ago. I wrote a book, novella/novelette, kind of experimental and languagy that deals with, in an obscure way, introversion vs. extroversion. It is called The Iguana Complex. Iguana = I, Elephant = E. It is being published by a small press called...

my favorite of the year, probably the tunnel by william h gass, or beckett's m,m,u. Although these are pretty difficult to get into unless you read a lot of experimental (ie. plotless) fiction. what i read that i would reccommend are the tunnel: selected poems by russell edson and return to the...

here's a review of the phantom menace i just watched yesterday. the structure is a little corny, but its actually a very well researched and critical review of why the movie doesn't work. YouTube- Star Wars: The Phantom Menace Review (Part 1 of 7) YouTube- Star Wars: The Phantom Menace Review...

did you like what you read of it? i was kind of turned off by anathem's premise so i never put it on my read list. i loved cryptonomicon (one of my favorite sci fi novels (if its even sci fi)), but anathem seems like he's getting a little too orwellian or something, and i tend to turn away from...

this is an interesting list. unbearable lightness, i read that so long ago i dont even remember it. and nietzsche. i've got to read more philosophy.. 2010 goodreads.com is an interesting tool for tracking books you read. thats how i know my list from the year.

the movie is a whole other animal, stanley kubrick directed. the rape scenes were very disturbing to a lot of people. very controversial when it came out and was withdrawn from theaters. i think it was originally rated X or something. i had seen the movie before reading the book. i liked the...

i read a clockwork orange maybe four years ago? i remember being impressed that burgess essentially invented an entirely new slang. its tough to read that book and try to suppress the memory of the movie though. the movie was too intense.

oh i forgot i read the god delusion by dawkins also.

i thought it woud be interesting to list the books everyone read during 2009. Here is my list, mostly contemporary fiction and poetry... the ghost soldiers - james tate the age of wire and string - ben marcus dreams of a robot dancing bee - james tate a temple of texts - william h gass paradise...

thanks for checking it out! there's a ton of really innovative lit in the independent scene right now. long showers long showers.

well i don't know if i'm an 'author,' ive never had any booklength work published, but ive published lots of short and experimental, sometimes humor, fiction in various independent journals for the last maybe seven years. here is an example: http://www.monkeybicycle.net/archive/Larson/cube.html...

i write a lot and have had fiction published on the web and in print in various places. here is a list sort of... http://darbylarson.blogspot.com/2008/10/here-is-complete-i-think-list-of-my.html

i refer to this (http://www.intp.org/intprofile.html) profile a lot, i'm sure it's widely spread, but I'll quote from it... [/FONT] i'm pretty silly, sure. but also i'm not. i'm very very dry so its a kind of serious silliness.

here is an interesting steve reich phase, one pianist playing two pianos slightly out of phase, so it goes slowly from melodic to disonant and back, etc. YouTube- Unique performance of Steve Reich - 1 musician on 2 pianos

yes. brian eno's music for airports i listen to at work a lot and while writing. Also, john cage and steve reich. also, michael finnissy. philip glass if that's considered ambient, some pieces certainly. there are also natural white noise mp3s i listen to a lot, that is just like a river running...

very true

i think the way i want to die is while listening to glass in the shower somehow. yes, though, the white noise of the shower and the white visual of the tile wall, all a pillow for the senses, no distractions, just be inside your head, relax. i work for intel, semiconductor design.
