It's been roughly a year since I posted to this space. My last post was in re. my successful legal challenge in USA v. LAMO, preventing the FBI from taking my blood. Since that time, despite occasional Livejournal posts, I've had little to say to the world outside of a small circle of friends.
I still don't have the time or the will to provide a running narrative of my life, but I think I'll be in this space more often. Though I initially created this as a test account, Google Blog Search believes it's relevant to me, and who am I to argue in the face of that kind of authority? As such, I guess the joke's on me: It's my blog after all.
Running with that, I'm happy to be able to say that it looks like a final version of the film once known as "Untitled Hacker Documentary: The 'Homeless' Hacker Adrian Lamo", then as "Can You Hack It?", and now more definitively as "Hackers Wanted" has moved into the final stages of production.
It's been dead and alive more times than Elvis, but in the end, like the history of hacking & innovation, it has a life beyond its borders. If Hackers Wanted were a houseplant it would be dead, if it were a child any court would transfer custody from the producer to the director for intentional neglect, but the fact that it's a finished product speaks for itself. It can no longer disappear into some creative memory hole, or compete with Tiefland for its Guinness entry.
All that's left is for Trigger Street to figure out how to sell movies. How long could that take?
