Some bloody nerve.</font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4">There's not much to be gleaned from the 'new' Gould film on GG's loquaciousness. There's not a lot to be gleaned at all. The film skims flat stones across calmed waters and it seems to me that the whole point</font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4">of the exercise was to elucidate Gould's heterosexuality.</font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4">As for Gould and Twitter and the rest: Don't you get it? He loved the human voice. Loved it so much that he sought out trunk lines. Loved it long distance as well as whispered into his weirdly formed right ear. The man was so utterly attuned to sound that it makes me outraged at the nonsense people are trying to make of his 'philosophy', trying to turn it all into some early IT gospel. </font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br><br>Gould had more in common with Cocteau than with Ballmer.<br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size: 16pt;" face="Times New Roman" size="4">Mary Jensen</font><br><br> </body>
