[2003-11-09] Crash Landing
This afternoon I saw "The Matrix: Revolutions" for the second time in five days - I was so eager to watch this final installment in the series after the suspense created by the last one that I was there to see the movie first day, first show! I thought I might have missed out something the last time around.
[2003-09-10] "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"
The fifth book in the "Harry Potter" series by J. K. Rowling, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is so much better than the previous one (which was the worst, in my opinion) in the series "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"! It is the biggest book in the series and yet manages to keep the reader interested throughout by various turns in the plot.

Ananth and Surabhi ("Hey Mr DJ...") finally got married on the 7th of August after seven years of pursuing each other! Let us just hope a certain other couple does not have to wait that long. ;-)
[2003-07-20] Matrix Mania Mantained
I got my Animatrix DVD from amazon.com last week and I finally got around to watching it yesterday. It would be an understatement to say that I was not disappointed at all. The DVD comprises nine short movies in eight different styles of animé, a short documentary on animé, production notes on the included movies and a trailer for the "Enter the Matrix" game.

During the "Bang!inux" Linux Conference held here in Bangalore in February 2000, my friend Ananth Chandrasekharan and I managed to get RMS (Richard Matthew Stallman) to pose with us for a photograph.

[2003-03-02] The Art of Coding
I recently received my copy of MindCandy DVD, a superb collection of
PC Demos that
includes some all time classic demos like "Second
Reality" by Future Crew. This DVD is the result of an almost
two year long project
and is truly a labour of love, especially considering the technical
hurdles faced by the creators of this DVD in recording these
demos. If you ever thought you were a great coder, take a look at
some of these demos and consider the hardware they could run
on - and be humbled!
