Media Brief

Date: March 13, 2006 RE: Media Brief To whom it may concern, This letter is to let you know that Jon Ra Films! is in the process of developing a new and original low-budget film to be shot primarily in the city of Tacoma. Principal photography (actual shooting time) will take 4 days, with a crew of 8. The working title of this story is: "AN ALLEGORY ABOUT SOCKS.” It is film about an insomniac's journey to find the matches to all of his missing socks, as an allegory to the existential anxieties common to man. His psychiatrist has determined that he may have not just gone over the brink; he is free falling down a bottomless chasm. Jon Ra Films! is interested in engaging the public with beautiful, thoughtful, dynamic storytelling through the medium of moving, pure independent cinema. The local media are invited to join us for “a day on the set” Friday March 17th at 4pm for about 2 hours at our second shooting location: The Western R Café, 1214 Puyallup Ave., Tacoma, WA 98421.

Although this particular publication's audience is predominantly management-level financial analysts (my company CEO for example) Baker even discusses "The Dark Side" of all of this "This industrial metamorphosis also has a dark side. The power of mathematicians to make sense of personal data and to model the behaviour of individuals will inevitably continue to erode privacy. Merchants will be in a position to track many of our most intimate purchases, (QFC "club" cards) and employers will be able to rank us no only by productivity, but my wasted minutes." For example, huge data bases like MSN.com , Blogger.com , MySpace.com or Google.com are mathematically analy
