Et stjerneliv

Interessant kommentar om vår narsissistiske kultur fra LA Times om hvordan et moderne publikum ikke bare kan late som om vi er stjerner men at teknologien gjør at vi nå alle kan være stjerner. En liten smakebit:
"The promise of an alternative life — the vicarious thrill of escape — has always been one of the movies' greatest blandishments. In the theater we could all imagine ourselves to be Cary Grant or Bette Davis. Now with avatars — essentially masks that one can use to represent oneself on the Internet — anyone can be Cary Grant or Bette Davis without having to imagine it. In effect, we have become our own movies."
