Lazy links

I don't think I posted enough about Hong Kong but I, in my laziness, don't see the sense in writing what's already been well-written by my friend Dave, who I went with to HK.

So, here are the links to his HK posts:

made in Hong Kong, chapter one

chapter two

chapter three (with pics!)

mm, yeah. you're right. i read up on the ghost in the shell (film) section of wiki and it even turns out that the puppetmaster and the major do merge in the end.

in the second film the merged being is still refered to as the "major" by batou but - thinking about it - has enhanced, puppetmaster-style abilities.

maybe it's time to watch that first film again. i've only seen it once, back in first year uni...

yeah, but it is pretty ambiguous, and i think you hit on some of the more over-arching philosophical ideas.
