For an astounding second week in a row, the gang meets up to talk about Infinite Jest! We had planned to get to page 78 today, but we ran into an enormous endnote, so we stopped at page 68 instead.

This week's topics of discussion include:

  • Found cats
  • Hi, Grandma!
  • “Quo Vadis”
  • Imaginary technology
  • Nightmares
  • The filmography of James O. Incandenza, and his place in the 20th century experimental cinema canon
  • Nuclear fusion

    • Watch: Sidney Peterson's The Cage (1947)

    Watch: Excerpt from Takahiko Iimura's AIUEONN Six Features (1993)
    Watch: George Landow's New Improved Institutional Quality: In the Environment of Liquids and Nasals a Parasitic Vowel Sometimes Develops (1976)

    For next week, we'll read up through page 95.
