Head on over to the Korova Milk Bar and join us for a cup of some Milk+, thats milk mixed with velocet and a drenacrom as we get ready for a good bit of the ol' ultraviolence. Join us as we discuss Stanley Kubrick's adaption of Anthony Burgess' acclaimed and scorned "A Clockwork Orange" as we dig deep into its secrets and dissect the deeper themes of the movie and how they influence our society today. We talk a good bit about the concept of ultraviolence and compare some of the ideas in the film to motifs in modern game design and the general phenomena of deriving pleasure from the suffering of others. Take a sip and get ready, after all, "initiative comes to those who wait!"
On this week's episode we discuss:
-The language spoken in "A Clockwork Orange"
-Anthony Burgess
-The difference between the novel and the film
-Ultraviolence
-The connection between "A Clockwork Orange" and videogame kill-thrill
-Thinkers versus the inspired
