Velvet Darkness


Amidst all the financed hyperbole of the Star Wars Episode III opening this week, the long history of the Star Wars phenomenon has had ample attention. From the original movie release in May 1977 to the present, the film attracted and still maintains an extremely loyal fan base. A year and half earlier in September 1975 another film, a single film, also generated a loyal fan following persisting to this day. The story is still being told on stage in Madison.

If you apply for a position be prepared to answer the yes/no question: Are you willing to be in public in your underwear? I wonder if any “computer models” of social behavior accurately predicted this thirty year old occurrence.
