Miscellaneous

Years ago I published the following article:
Recently, much to my surprise and delight, distinguished filmmaker Amit Dutta made a 17 minute film of my article.  It was shown in various film festivals and at the moment is available only on Vimeo.
You can watch the trailer there for free, but you’ll have to shell out $3.00 to watch the whole film.  I don’t get any royalties, though.
