Rewired: The Psychology of Technology

Thanks, Dr. Larry, for this review!

My head is still spinning from "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" (books + movies + buzz) - sort of related to "psychology today", no? :-)

Last night I watched the Golden Globes and got a sense of the Holiday-Season spread. (Screenplay went to Woody Allen for Midnight in Paris - also "psychology" a la classic neurosis and nostalgia.) And of course the legends of movie-dom shined bright.

I've recently attended the NY Film Festival and my selection for "psychologically provocative" would go to Almovodar's "In My Skin" - capturing culture, craziness, and lots of fantasy. And of course, "A Dangerous Method" (circa Victorian times, Freud & Jung).

Wait a minute... wrong channel! Technology? I have enjoyed a few discussions on "media psychology" lately, so... imagine finding you *here*! Thanks again for sharing your inside scoop!

Hi Dr. Mike, thanks for your nice comments. Yes, Almodovar's "In My Skin" is fascinating and definitely not for the squeamish. "Midnight in Paris" was my favorite movie of the year and Owen Wilson was nothing short of spectacular in the role. And, yes, I do think that I am allowed to talk about nearly anything as a form of tech including media. That's half the fun of writing for Psychology Today. Everything is psychological and everything these days is connected to us via media.
