Adam Curtis Documentaries on Google Video

| | Comments (1)


Thanks to Heather, Tom, and Joe for pointing this out to me. Adam Curtis is a documentarian for the BBC whose work mostly centers around the imposition of ideologies on societies. All of his series are up on Google Video. I highly recommend watching the four part Century of the Self. Adam Curtis sez: "(The Century of the Self) is about how those in power have used Freud's theories to try and control the dangerous crowd in an age of mass democracy." Check it out! The other one I made it through was The Trap, which is about the use of game theory applied to the ordering of society.
