The movie LIFE TRACKER ask the intriguing question, what if there were a device able to tell you everything from the gender of your unborn children to the day you would die, based on your DNA:  In the near future, a new device has emerged to detect the time of death of every man’s life through DNA analysis. A modern day palm reading, the device has ignited fear and paranoia throughout the world. The film follows an aspiring filmmaker, Dillon (Barry Finnegan), who chronicles the hysteria and stumbles upon the mystery behind LIFE TRACKER Limited, the company behind the device. With the help of his friends, Scott (Matt Dallas) and Bell (Rebecca Marshall), they embark on a journey to find the real story behind the science, testing their friendship and faith along the way. Are the predictions true? Is a person’s lifespan ingrained in one’s DNA? The race is on to uncover the truth. I’m so effing in! Can’t wait until this gets a release date. [via i09, “Just how much about your future could someone tell from your DNA?”]...

Please show this to your daughter as soon as she gets her first period. The bad news is that there are still ridiculous period myths floating around about periods, like that you can lose your virginity by using a tampon. The good news is that they’re way less ridiculous than what women used to believe back in the day, like if a menustrating woman looked at a horse, it would be struck dead. So, progress?

In a strange coincidence, a bunch of movies based on books I’ve actually read are coming out this winter, and it’s BOOK WEEK II. So yeah, my job is pretty easy this week. First up, WORLD WAR Z, which I read this summer off a recommendation from CH. I was wondering how the movie would capture the global nature of the plot or its documentary like narrative. The answer is that it totally won’t, if the trailer is any indication. It could easily be called, “Brad Pitt and His Family Are the Only Ones We Should Care About in Zombie Crisis.” Check it out...

People make fun of me for carrying either a book or e-reader everywhere I go, even if I’m only leaving for a short while.

I found this Dutch video hauntingly beautiful and would love to see an American remake. I also loved the commentary by the filmmaker “Filmersblog:” In October 2011 I started documenting people in the city of Amsterdam, approaching them in the street and asking them to say their age in front of the camera. My aim was to ‘collect’ a group of 100 people, from age 0 to 100. At first my collection grew fast but slowed down when it got down to the very young and very old. The young because of sensivity around filming or photographing children and the very old because they don’t get out of the house much. I found my very old ‘models’ in care homes and it was a privilege to document these -often vulnerable- people for this project. I had particular problems finding a 99 year-old. (Apparently 100 year-olds enjoy notoriety, but a 99 year-old is a rare species…) And when I finally did find one, she refused to state her age. She simply denied being 99 years old! But finally, some 4 months after I recorded my first ‘age’, I was able to capture the ‘missing link’ and conclude this project. Enjoy. (By the way: together these people have lived 5050 years…)   ‘100’ (from 0 to 100 years in 150 seconds) from Filmersblog on...
