Pornography, calculus, cinema, metaphor

[Bryan Snyder]

WOW... I was talking to a "mathy" person and reading the wikipedia entry re:
delta-t today at work because of the whole "pornographies of flight"
discussion on here...

so i would also ask for some help with this (and if anyone knows where any
essays exist (besides the recent one floated around here that, i think,
quotes Leni) online or in any compilations - I would greatly appreciate any
direction)

Thanks.
