Interesting description but the documentary is too boring to watch for very long.

well said donjonvon! the post-er seems to lack the aesthetic creative installation of space as less than puttin on a suit and tie to climb some ladder of success so you can have a bunch of money to sit around with when you are old.
josh lived in the present. that party and all the creativity generated are less likely to happen in retirement age. i admire josh and stand up for him as a genius.

What this man is doing is what our federal government has been doing in the last 10 years......using technology to manipulate and control people. This is just another example of fascism. Josh Harris has no soul and I wouldn't be surprised if he's a Satanist.

What a fascinating story of a mad man genius and the slice of reality this documentary captures is brilliant. I was truly surprised in the end when he ends up half way across the world. Where in the world is JH now?

A cautionary tale!

I finally had a laugh near the end when the founder of MySpace said “I’ve never heard of Josh Harris…” Sweet justice frankly because I saw nothing genius about this man. He seemed to be an aggressive, angry, manipulative, vindictive ass-hole. I’ve known plenty of creative people in my life that had none of those qualities.

The reason I think this film works so well is because it was captured by an insider who at the beginning was probably not thinking in terms of a film at all. That insider has turned into one of the most successful documentary filmmakers today.
Congrats Ondi.
