Long, Long Before I Became

If You Told Me Thirty Years Ago That People Would Be Parodying Documentary Films, I Never Would Have Believed It. It Wasn't Clear That The Films Themselves Even Had An Audience, Let Alone An Audience For Parodies Of Them.

People Think In Narratives - In Beginnings, Middles And Ends. The Danger When You Edit Something Too Severely Is That It No Longer Makes Sense; Worse Still, It Leaves People With The Disquieting Impression That Something Is Being Hidden.

If You Asked Me What Makes The World Go Round, I Would Say Self-deception. Self-deception Allows Us To Create A Consistent Narrative For Ourselves That We Actually Believe. I’m Not Saying That The Truth Doesn’t Matter. It Does. But Self-deception Is How We Survive.

When You Start Talking About The Known Knowns And The Unknown Unknowns, You're Thrown Into A Crazy Meta-level Discussion. Do I Know What I Know, Do I Know What I Don't Know, Do I Know What I Don't Know I Don't Know. It Becomes A Strange, Lewis Carroll - Like Nursery Rhyme.
