A story about "Constant Touch: A Brief History of the Mobile Phone" — 6 years ago
Fascinating history.
I'm currently reading 3 books, listening to 4 albums, watching 2 movies, eating and drinking 0 food items, and consuming 0 other things.
paulmorriss hasn't consumed anything recently.
10 entries have been written about this.
A story about "Emergence: The Connected Lives of Ants, Brains, Cities, and Software" — 6 years ago
Seems to crystallise ideas I’ve had for a while. Unlike most science books, it talks about something I know about – the web – so is much more intellectually stimulating.
A story about "Ambient Century" — 6 years ago
Really comprehensive overview of ambient, minimalist and related music. Some music is only slightly related, which means a big book, but then it had a big title to live up to.
A story about "How We Became Posthuman: Virtual Bodies in Cybernetics, Literature, and Informatics" — 6 years ago
Very academic. I’m struggling to get into it. Maybe I’ll skip most of it and try and find the best bits.
A story about "Man and Boy" — 6 years ago
A story about adultery and fatherhood. I’m not very sympathetic to the main character. He tells a lot about what he’s thinking, but misses out some things I’d like to know.

A story about "Northern Lights (His Dark Materials)" — 6 years ago
An immersive fantasy story, written for children, but good for adults too.
A story about "Murray Walker: Unless I'm Very Much Mistaken" — 6 years ago
Fantastic! Well OK really.
A story about "Idoru Uk Edition" — 6 years ago
Somehow the future is nearer than when he first started writing.
A story about "The Subtle Knife (His Dark Materials, Book 2)" — 6 years ago
Different again from the first. Why is the first one called Northern Lights in the UK and Golden Compass in the US?
