Igor's Darkened Corner: November 2009

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Thursday, November 12, 2009. Canine Evolution: The Best of Skinny Puppy. K-9 - Back and Forth (1984). The track firmly plants Skinny Puppy as defenders of animal rights. SMOTHERED HOPE - Remission (1984). In the film, a young woman suspects her uncle of being a serial murderer. Smothered Hope, learned helplessness, depression, nihilism. When we view our lives as being without future or meaning, there is little rhyme or reason to anything we do. Hopelessness ...Talk on t...

Igor's Darkened Corner: April 2010

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Saturday, April 24, 2010. Philosophers typically classify all knowledge into two distinct groups, a priori. The Scottish philosopher, David Hume, applied these classifications like two fronts in a war against Christianity. Hume's fork, as it is called, is an aggressive attack on the Christian belief in God. Here is how it works. Knowledge is that which is true by definition. The concept is known without previous experience. Furthermore, a priori. Examples of a priori.

Igor's Darkened Corner: Weaponization

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010/07/weaponization.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Monday, July 5, 2010. A hammer has many uses depending on the hand that wields it. It can install a shelf or it can bash in someone's head. In itself the hammer has no moral compass. Though its virtue ( arete. Is to drive in nails, that function can be easily applied to the cranium. So it is with many tools. Labels: Film and Television.

Igor's Darkened Corner: December 2009

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Thursday, December 24, 2009. Wu Wei: Doing without Doing. Minimum effort is central to Daoism. Maintaining one's mental, physical, and spiritual health relies on not over extending oneself. This makes the typical Daoist appear lazy. Fair enough, but are they stressed? Are they over worked? Are they a control freak? An excerpt from the Dao De Jing, the Classic Book of Integrity. The soft overcomes the hard;. The formless penetrates the impenetrable;. Work without action,.

Igor's Darkened Corner: Conscience of a Killer

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010/08/conscience-of-killer.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Monday, August 23, 2010. Conscience of a Killer. There is a theory regarding serial killers. Even the most gruesome murderer wants to be caught. The trademark mode of operation, the calling cards, the letters to the police and the press may not be just a few strokes of the ego. These tropes may be desperate cries to stop the cycle. Granted this is just one theory. Dostoevsky takes a similar approach. In Crime and Punishment. Even in Fritz Lang's M. Conscience of a Killer.

Igor's Darkened Corner: January 2010

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Saturday, January 30, 2010. I, too, have been drawn into nodes, or rather, into a larger community. Dark Horizons is one such node. Theresa's Silly Question of the Week allowed me to access, through hashtags and mention of @DHRadio, other listeners. By doing this, I discovered tweeps with a similar taste in music, and by extension, a similar lifestyle. Labels: Science-Fiction and Fantasy. Saturday, January 23, 2010. Even so, there is something appealing about doing thin...

Igor's Darkened Corner: Im Rhythmus Bleiben

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010/07/im-rhythmus-beliben.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Friday, July 16, 2010. Rhythm plays a vital role in music, dance, and the martial arts. It features in sport as well. Little chance has a rowing team if the stroke is off. Even the sexual act enjoys some rhythmic motions. So, what is rhythm? A waltz suggests a fluidity which is reflected in the spiraling dance sharing the name. A waltz can be smooth, and can be slow, or it can be mad. Yet, a waltz is always a waltz in the end. I needn't suggest how rhythm applies to sex...

Igor's Darkened Corner: The Green Lantern and the Monomyth

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2011/06/green-lantern-and-monomyth.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Sunday, June 19, 2011. The Green Lantern and the Monomyth. That a superhero movie follows the monomyth is no great surprise. The interest is in how each movie treats the hero's path. The new Green Lantern movie features many of the signature elements of the hero's journey. The treatment ranges from the cliched to the surprising. Labels: Film and Television. Bill D. Courtney. April 1, 2012 at 8:39 AM. Http:/ necroticcinema.blogspot.com.

Igor's Darkened Corner: February 2010

http://igorsdarkenedcorner.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

The realm of the dark philosopher. Saturday, February 27, 2010. Nature abhors a straight line. Look at the natural world. The horizon is a curve. The limbs of the trees are crooked and gnarled. The river snakes through the canyon. Natural shapes are organic. They are irregular. Why is the rectangle so common in the artificial world? Take the length and multiply the width and there you go. Ever try to stack spheres? Only if it is custom built. So what has nature against mathematical simplicity? We live as...
