Interesting. I seem to be surfing too much these days. But darn it, there's some fascinating stuff out there. I just read a sweet interview with an artist who also programs. It rambles into discussing postmodernism, and links to a talk titled

Perl, the first postmodern computer language, by Larry Wall. (Try the Google cache if that link doesn't work.) Wow. I can't recommend it highly enough, especially if you're a geek. Good stuff.
