snowynightPencil and paper rpg games fans love their games, and a number of them love to hack and adapt the rules. The original rule set often serves as a spring board for creativity. A lot of people have house rules for their games and some claim that they can never run a game without them. The hobby of rpg games largely depend on enthusiastic participants to engage with the text and produce transformative work. It sounds like fanfic-writing fandom, right? And these hobbies face the same problems: copyright issues. Posting your twist and changed rules on the internet can lead to a Cease & Desist letter. The open gaming movement is a response to it and encourages the game producers to release game under creative commons license. Seeing the convergence of my two hobbies makes me happy.
Anyway, old movies review.
Ghost in the Shell (1995) - As a movie produced ten years ago, the technology and society still seems up-to-dated, speaking of the tremendous research behind. I love that the city depicted is diversified, complex, rather than sterilized and unified. The information flow of the film is rapid and huge, just like the society the film reflects. The discussion of transhumanism, humanity and consciousness is inspiring.
