Two new tech documentaries you really need to see
In this week’s Installer: Huge smart home hubs, tiny headphones, and the gadget that makes me wish I played music.
This week, I’ve been reading about venom and deadly car races and hockey phenoms, setting up the new Mac Mini I finally caved and bought, watching The Day of the Jackal(which is spectacular) and Wolfs(which is fine), devouring the Dark Matter and Say Nothing books before I watch the shows, seeing if Google’s Gemini app can replace my search engine, trying to restart my notebooking habit with MyMind, and listening to the Halt and Catch Fire soundtrack on repeat. Then watch this new doc about how this kind of thing is happening all over the world, and Farrow won’t seem so dramatic when he basically advocates hucking your phone out the window. Intense commentary about capitalism, fascism, AI, and the surveillance state, dressed up in a stylishly animated story about hackers riding motorcycles in futuristic Tokyo?
