Glenn Kenny has a good post up, The Red Krayola with Art & Language and, briefly, Kathryn Bigelow, about the radical art collective Art & Language and its various tentacles, including Kathryn Bigelow, who later turned her tentacle into a SQUID. "But to look at stuff such as Blue Steel, Strange Days, and particularly Point Break again through a conceptual art refraction is to see, well, almost completely different films, almost literally inverted action 'blockbusters' critiquing not just commodification of culture but gender roles and capital as well." Also a fair amount of post-punk art rock geeking.

Yes, more songs about the commodification of geeking.
