Bringing this back for The Odyssey. Nolan shot it on IMAX, and one feature of larger physical film is that the in-focus area appears narrower than on smaller frames. When you increase the lens' image circle but keep the focal length fixed, the depth of focus appears shallower.

The "faster" a lens is, the more shallow the depth of focus/field you get and the blurrier the out of focus regions get. It allows you to film at almost any time of the day, but it also provides a certain effect that's easy to overuse because it can be novel and striking. It's surreal.

Over a year ago, a Dutch frog science magazine emailed me asking if they could include my comic in their upcoming issue about dart frogs. They were interviewing the scientist who first described the blue poison dart frog; he had seen and liked the comic. They mailed me a copy, which just arrived:

Had a dream I was a teenager and that me and a friend of mine were given ~10 cuban cigars (in a ziplock bag) that we spent the whole dream disassembling and figuring out how to re-cut/re-roll into cigarettes to sell for cash.

IMDB automatically logged me in with my Amazon account and sent me a new account signup email. I didn't do anything except visit the site, a thing I do regularly.

I wish in my heart of hearts for space bar to always function as page down, instead of "activate whatever the invisibly focused element on the page is"
