    Read transcriptLet's talk about Spider-Man 3, the movie where Sam Raimi looked at “menacing single antagonist” and said no thank you, I would like three, please, and also I would like Peter Parker to dance down the street like he's auditioning for a jazz-hands cult. It's a movie that tried to do everything, mostly succeeded at doing too much, and somehow still made enough money that Activision looked at it and thought: yes, this deserves not one video game, but two, spread across seven different consoles, so that literally nobody in 2007 could escape it. Ambitious! Chaotic! Extremely on brand for the source material! See, there's the fancy version, built by Treyarch for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, where you get a whole open Manhattan to swing around in and the black suit shows up only when the story deems you emotionally ready for it, very mature, very earned. And then there's the completely different budget cousin, built by Vicarious Visions for PS2, Wii, PSP, GBA, and DS, where you can slap the black suit on whenever you feel like being a jerk, the Wii Remote gets to pretend it's a web-shooter, and the DS throws the D-pad in the trash entirely so you can beat up Sandman by poking a touchscreen like it owes you money. Same cover art. Same villains. Practically strangers. Swinging in to help me sort out how many wildly different versions of one questionable movie a single franchise can generate is Harry Steele, co-host of Games on Film, the podcast where he and his brother Rory spend their days grading movies based on video games! Which means Harry has built an entire professional skillset around asking “did Hollywood mess this up,” and today, for one glorious episode, we get to point that same energy directly back at a video game and ask if it managed to mess up the movie right back. Poetic justice! Content symmetry! Whatever you want to call it, it's happening! So grab whichever suit you're feeling today, pick a console, any console, apparently they all made their own decisions, and let's find out if the Spider-Man 3 games handled three villains and seven platforms with any more finesse than the movie handled three villains and one dance number. Learn such things as: How similar do games have to be in order to have the same title? Do movie tie in games really need to care about what happened in the movie? Isn't Spidey supposed to have friends? And so much more! You can find Harry on BlueSky @onlymanwhocan and of course his podcast Games on Film.

    Es gibt so Bücher, da quält man sich. Ob man das muss, gerade als freier, unbezahlter Rezensent, aber auch als schnöder Leser von Büchern, es ist ein ewiger Streit. Ein Streit, in dem Anzahl und Vehemenz bejahender Argumente reziprok mit dem Alter des Argumentierenden korrelieren. Ok, man kann auch formulieren: Je näher man dem Grabe ist, desto weniger ist man geneigt, einen Autor langsam zur Sache kommen zu lassen. Aber das klingt grausam, oberflächlich, und Anne Findeisen setzt gerade zum “OK Boomer” an.Und es ist tatsächlich ungerecht dem Autor gegenüber, einschränkend: sobald man ihm ein Niveau zugesteht oberhalb des seit ein paar Jahren aufgrund irgendeines Marketingkurses so heftig promoteten “Deutschen Krimis mit Lokalkolorit”, ein Genre, in dem arbeitslose Redakteure von regionalen Tageblättern ihr Gehalt aufbessern, indem sie uns weiß machen wollen, dass es in Berlin-Marzahn fast genauso zur Sache ginge wie in Chicago Southside.Gehen wir also von den guten Autoren aus.Ein Autor schreibt auf leerem Blatt eine Story, und je ferner sie von der Lebenswirklichkeit des Lesers entfernt ist, desto größer des Autor-Dilemma: Erklärt er mit Begriffen, die dem Leser nahe sind, die ferne Seltsamkeit seiner Phantasie, oder lässt er es den Leser selbst herausfinden? Ersteres vergrößert die Chance auf die Bahnhofsbuchhandlung und erhöht die Anzahl der Bücher, die der Leser bis zum Grabgang, siehe oben, lesen kann, enorm, aber es ist auch potentiell langweilig, bricht die Magie, nicht zu reden von der künstlerischen Integrität des Auteur.Kann man also Regeln finden, die man anwenden kann, wenn man auf Seite 10 eines Buches noch kein Wort verstanden hat?Statt theoretisch zu salbadern, greifen wir in den Fundus der aktuellen Falschgoldschen Buchliste “in progress”. Der Punkt, dass darunter ein Buch aus Papier ist, so zum Blättern, mit Rascheln und so, macht deutlich, dass wir hier nicht von anekdotenhafter Beweisführung, sondern regelrecht von Empirie reden können, so alt ist der Rezensent, so viele Bücher las er schon. Dem Zuhörer kommen die Tränen.Das papierne Buch ist dunkelgrün, ein Paperback, und öffnet sich automatisch auf Seite 374/375 - Ein Eselsohr! Wenn man genau hinschaut, sieht man, dass der Papierschnitt, also die Außenseite des geschlossenen Buches, von dieser Stelle an bis zur Seite 1014 glatt ist, die Seiten davor uneben. Denn ich habe Ulysses von James Joyce schon so oft angefangen, und bin so oft nur bis zur Hälfte gekommen, dass ich einmal den Traum hatte, dass der Quizmaster unseres monatlichen Kneipenquiz die Frage stellt, welches Buch folgendermaßen beginnt:Erste Seite UlyssesSTATTLICH UND FEIST erschien Buck Mulligan am Treppenaustritt, ein Seifenbecken in Händen, auf dem gekreuzt ein Spiegel und ein Rasiermesser lagen. Ein gelber Schlafrock mit offenem Gürtel bauschte sich leicht hinter ihm in der milden Morgenluft. Er hielt das Becken in die Höhe und intonierte: “Introibo ad altare Dei.”Woraufhin ich meinem Kollegen beruhigend zuzwinkere “Hab ich”. Im Sinne von “die Antwort”, aber auf keinen Fall “verstanden”. Denn jetzt, auf Seite 374 sitzt Leopold Bloom immer noch am 16.6.1904 und frühstückt Leber. Sehr sympathisch, und das mit dem Frühstück ist nur ein educated guess, ein Drittel im Buch, das berühmterweise einen Tag im Leben eines Anzeigenverkäufers in Dublin beschreibt, das muss noch Frühstück sein.Ach, ich lese mal kurz rein..Dreißig Minuten später habe ich noch keine Ahnung, ob es Frühstück, Brunch oder Mittag ist, aber mehr als eine davon, warum ich das Buch immer wieder beginne: Es ist ein Rätsellabyrinth. Zusammengehalten von der Einfachheit der Prämisse: Ein Mann, ein Tag, eine Stadt, und damit unkompliziert reinzukommen, ist es fast unmöglich, wieder rauszufinden: So viele Fragen gestellt in bildlichster Sprache, man sieht sie vor sich, die verrückten Dubliner, immer etwas schmuddlig, nie unter 3,8 im Turm und dennoch gebildet, klug und rätselhaft. Wenn man weiß, dass man etwas nie ganz verstehen wird, befreit das ungemein, und wenn man weiß, dass das Literaturprofessoren so geht, nicht zu reden von Übersetzern und Rezensenten, ist das ein Argument, das Buch immer wieder zu beginnen, ohne das Ziel, es jemals zu beenden.Ein weiteres Beispiel, ein ganz anderes: Am 20.1. diesen Jahres 2020 kam der neue William Gibson raus, “Agency”, und der Vorbestellen-Knopf war schon halb gedrückt, als ich aus den Augenwinkeln das Cover sah, mh.. erinnert an etwas, und auch die “Kunden kauften sonst noch”-Zeile des bösen Onlinebuchhändlers erinnerte an Bekanntes. Genauer an Gibsons 2014er Roman “Peripherie” und daran, dass ich trotz heftigem Fanboyseins das Buch nicht nur nicht zu Ende gelesen habe, nein, dass ich kaum über Seite 30 hinweggekommen war. Was zumindest für diesen Rezensenten, der eine Buchserie von vorn bis hinten lesen muss, ohne Lücken, es unmöglich macht, den neuen Gibson zu lesen, ohne den alten Gibson gelesen zu haben. Anne Findeisen murmelt übrigens gerade wieder “Ok Boomer”, bekanntermaßen kann sie Simon Beckets David-Hunter-Serie Buch 6 lesen und Buch 5 mal eben so locker überspringen. Sie ist ein Monster.Ich bin keines, also holte ich mir “Peripherie” von William Gibson auf den E-Reader und kann berichten, ich bin sechs Jahre älter, nicht weiser. William Gibson ist ein allgemein anerkannter Visionär und Erfinder des allgegenwärtigen Begriffes “Cyberspace”, der, wie sich das gehört für unsere oberflächliche Zeit, mit dem “Cyberspace” in Gibsons Newromancer nichts, aber auch gar nichts gemein hat. Daraus scheint mir Gibson sein Lehren gezogen zu haben und erklärt nun einfach gar nichts mehr. Wir springen aus dem Wohnwagen eines Kriegsveteranen in ein Computerspiel, Fragezeichen, gespielt mit einem faltbaren, Fragezeichen, Handy als Controller und dargestellt auf mehreren, Fragezeichen, Displays, physischen, Fragezeichen. Eine Welt aus Fragezeichen, aber noch hat Gibson drei Bücher minus 30 Seiten, von denen eines noch nicht mal geschrieben ist, Zeit, uns zu erklären, wie wir bald leben werden, und schon jetzt spüre ich, dass er ziemlich weit daneben liegen wird, denn schon lange ist es nicht mehr möglich, ein Buch in der nahen Zukunft anzusiedeln, ohne von dieser bei Veröffentlichung überholt zu werden. Aber William Gibson muss gelesen werden, er ist Kanon, und kein Weg führt an der Tatsache vorbei, dass es aktuell keinen genaueren Beobachter unserer gegenwärtigen Zukunft gibt. Ich ignoriere also zunächst die Fragezeichen und werde mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit in Kürze hier an dieser Stelle berichten können, ob Gibson recht hat, ob Periphery und Agency uns helfen, uns zu verstehen.Sich zu verstehen, ist das Hauptproblem des titelgebenden Haupthelden in einem Buch, welches kaum diametraler sein könnte als die bisher angesprochenen “schwer lesbaren” Werke. “The Death and Life of Schneider Wrack” ist kein Bestseller, es spielt weder an einem Tag noch in naher Zukunft. Es ist ein Roman in einer fremden und seltsamen Welt. Geschrieben wurde er von Nate Crowley, einem Briten, den mein Lieblings-Online-Computerspielmagazin mit Namen “Rock, Paper, Shotgun” letztes Jahr eingestellt hat. Ja, Herr Falschgold liest nicht nur seit 25 Jahren Ulysses, sondern auch Computerspielmagazine. Clearly the most interesting man in the world. Gleich nach Nate Crowley muss er jedoch neidlos anerkennen. Nicht nur hat er, wie Herr Falschgold, eine Vorliebe für eine Nische im Computerspielkosmos, in der sich Games an ein Publikum wenden, das nicht reaktionsschnell das fünfhundertachtzigste x-beliebige Monster zu Brei ballern will, sondern stattdessen, das Kinn in die Hand gestützt, stundenlang virtuellen Figuren zuschaut, wie sie nur geringst von ihrem ihnen zuschauenden Gott beeinflusst ihrem Leben nachgehen. Für fantasielose Träumer von Eigentumswohnung und Minivan sind das die Sims, in dem sich realistische 3d-Instagrammodels in realistischen Mietwohnungen realistisch langweilen, für milde fantasiebegabte das aktuelle Lieblingsgame des Rezensenten namens “Rimworld”, in dem drei zufällige und meist ziemlich gestörte Raumfahrer auf einem Planeten stranden und versuchen, ohne dem Kannibalismus zu verfallen, von diesem wieder wegzukommen, dargestellt in der Draufsicht von liebevoll gezeichneten kleinen Pixelmenschen in einer Welt voller Gefahren. Nate Crowley jedoch machte auf sich aufmerksam durch das, was er aus dem Spielen des Programmes “Dwarf Fortress”, also “Zwergenburg”, machte. Ein Spiel, in dem die Personen nicht in 3d gezeigt werden oder pixelsüß animiert sind, sondern einfach nur verschiedenfarbige Buchstaben auf einem schwarzen Bildschirm, die sich blinkend von A nach B bewegen und deren Tun und Sein in Statistiken und gelegentlichen Beschreibungen aufgezeigt wird. Klingt trocken, aber mit dem fantasievollen Kopf eines Nate Crowley wurde daraus eine 23-Folgen-Fortsetzungsstory über “The Basement of Curiosity”, in dem Nate seine alphanumerischen Zwerge die wildesten, lustigsten Abenteuer bestehen lässt und darüber in solch schillernden Farben berichtete, als ginge es um den neuesten photorealistischen Blockbuster unter den Spielen und nicht um eine Textwüste in Grün auf Schwarz. Dazu hat Nate Crowley einen Twitteraccount, auf dem er Fotos seines Terrarium/Aquarium zeigt, welches statt mit den üblichen Fischen und Fröschen komplett mit Krabben, Langusten und ähnlich vielbeinigem Krustengetier bewohnt wird.Wenn man solcherlei seltsames Hobby mit derlei ausschweifender Phantasie kombiniert, muss ein Roman rauskommen. 2017 war es soweit, und es ist ein Trip. Unser Hauptheld Schneider Wrack war gerade noch Bibliothekar in einer postapokalyptischen Hafenstadt und erwacht auf einmal auf.. einem Schiff? Er weiß es nicht. Er weiß so gut wie gar nichts mehr. Er weiß noch nicht mal, ob er lebt. Er bewegt sich, er sieht und fühlt, aber.. er atmet schon mal nicht. Zumindest muss er es nicht. Um ihn herum sind ein paar hundert Menschen, die einen riesigen Wal mit Äxten und Messern traktieren und das rausgehackte Fleisch in Wagons verladen. Das Ganze passiert auf hoher See, so viel scheint klar, aber das Schiff ist so groß, dass er nicht sieht, wo es beginnt und endet. Auch sagt keiner ein Wort, zunächst noch nicht mal er selbst. Es scheint sich niemand um ihn zu kümmern, also beginnt er, auf dem Schiff zu wandern, und sieht die seltsamsten Dinge. Aufseher mit zugewachsenen Mündern, als Wachtiere begleiten sie Haie auf metallenen Beinen. Die Arbeiter haben alle Verletzungen, die auf einen gewaltsamen Tod hindeuten - und doch bewegen sie sich wie.. Zombies! In einer abgelegenen Halle finden sich in eine Ecke gestapelt so kaputte Exemplare, dass sie nicht mehr zur Arbeit zu gebrauchen sind, aber, Horror, sie bewegen sich noch. Auf Händen, so noch welche dran sind, oder sie schauen verwirrt von links nach rechts, wenn der Kopf noch dran ist, der Rest aber schon ab. Es ist eine Freakshow und nichts für schwache Gemüter. Es ist einem permanent ein bisschen schlecht. Es wimmelt von Worten, die ich nicht kenne und Wikipedia auch nicht, Fischarten vermutet man, halb-lateinisch klingend, aber auch Namen von Orten und Städten, bei denen man ob der Tatsache, dass sie so klingen, als müsste man sie kennen, Google Maps aber nichts findet, noch verwirrter ist als unser Hauptheld Schneider Wrack.Endgültig fertig macht Schneider, einige Seiten im Buch, dass er mit niemandem kommunizieren kann, sich niemand um ihn kümmert. Bis er eine Frau mit einem Loch in der Brust trifft, typische Säbelwunde, die leise vor sich hin jammert. Er tauft sie Moana und spricht leise auf sie ein. Bis sie ihm antwortet..Nate Crowley hat einen der abgefahrensten Romane in einer der abgefahrensten Settings ever geschrieben - und ich habe jetzt schon fünf Bücher von Jasper Fforde gelesen, wir erinnern uns, die Detektivin Thursday Next, die in Büchern lebt. Wir müssen unser Vorstellungsvermögen anpassen, alles ist größer als man denkt, und dann noch ein Stück. Wale so groß wie Fußballfelder werden von Kraken gefressen, so groß wie kleine Ostseeinseln. Wir bereisen den Amazonas und bemerken als Leser spätestens dann, warum Nate Crowley dazu neigt, deutsche Worte einzubauen, man sieht die Inspiration zum Buch in dem fiktiven Werk, welches Schneider Wrack, unser Protagonist, auf einmal im Körper einer Krabbe, fragt nicht, liest, es ist der Bericht einer Amazonasexpedition wie geschrieben von Alexander von Humboldt. Wir können das Buch, obwohl lange nicht explizit geschrieben, nur als Parabel auf eine Ökokatastrophe lesen und werden dazu mit moralischen Dilemmata konfrontiert - wann ist man tot und wann ist man so richtig tot? Und was passiert, wenn dann künstliche Intelligenz ins Spiel kommt. All das ist kaum zu greifen durch bestsellergewohntes eiliges Lesen. Man muss sich Zeit nehmen, man muss das Buch weglegen, schon weil einem manchmal ein bisschen übel ist. Aber man wird es immer wieder aufnehmen, man will mehr wissen von dieser fremden und seltsamen Welt des Schneider Wrack und Nate Crowley.Und das ist am Ende das Kriterium für jedes “schwere Buch”. Will man mehr wissen? Und da ist es egal, ob man mehr wissen will, weil man kaum etwas versteht, wie bei Joyces Ulysses, ob man mehr wissen will, weil man weiß, dass der Autor viel zu sagen hat, wie bei jedem Roman von Will Gibson, oder weil man einfach wissen will, ob sich Moana und Schneider, zu Beginn des Romans Zombies und zur Hälfte der eine eine Krabbe und die Andere ein Kampfroboter, am Ende doch bekommen und warum die Welt des Nate Crowley so abgefuckt ist, wie sie ist.Ja, Bücher sind manchmal schwer, inhaltlich, sprachlich, emotional, aber wir haben ein Leben Zeit, oder um es mit James Joyce zu sagen: “„Der längste Umweg ist der kürzeste nach Hause.“ - und hätte ich den Ulysses zu Ende gelesen, hätte ich vielleicht ein wirklich passendes Zitat gefunden.

    Real Life Superpowers
    E97 - Lior Pozin (Co-founder, CEO AutoDS)

    Real Life Superpowers

    Life Is a Game Lior Pozin built AutoDS into a company with more than 200 employees and over $20M ARR before its acquisition by Fiverr. Listening to him, it's hard to shake the feeling that AutoDS was never the destination. It was simply another level in the game. The kid who questioned everything Long before AutoDS, before SaaS, before startups, Lior was already looking at the world differently. His father locked his computer as punishment. He learned how to unlock it. He wanted to buy a phone online. He discovered the exact same phone was being resold for more money. So he sold it himself-without ever owning inventory. At 14, he wasn't asking what he was supposed to do. He was asking: "What's the game?" And then: "Let's just try." Gamifying life One sentence quietly explains almost every decision he makes. "I look at life as a game." It's not a motivational slogan. It's a framework. Games have rules. Rules can be learned. Sometimes they can even be bent. When eBay suspended his account, he didn't see failure. He saw another move - open another account. When people warned him something wouldn't work, he didn't hear a verdict. He heard another hypothesis to test. That mindset dramatically changes the emotional cost of entrepreneurship. Failure becomes feedback. Risk becomes calculated. And trying becomes more important than being right. The question that removes fear Throughout the conversation, Lior comes back to one exercise over and over. "What's the worst case?" Not as positive thinking. As practical thinking. What's the actual downside? Will I lose an account? Waste a year? Need another job? Once he answers that honestly, fear loses much of its power. Because most imagined catastrophes turn out to be survivable. That question became one of his most useful entrepreneurial tools. The investment that compounds the most One of the most interesting moments in the conversation has nothing to do with AutoDS. It's the way Lior treats personal development. Every week he protects time with almost religious discipline. Executive coach. Personal coach. Therapist. Reading. Meditation. Breathwork. Sports. Those hours are non-negotiable. His reasoning is remarkably simple: “If I elevate myself, the business will elevate too”. Many founders invest first in their company. Lior invests first in the founder running it. Building the founder like a product Lior recently created something unusual: A personal brand book. Not because he wants nicer colors or better social media posts. Because he believes founders deserve the same strategic clarity as companies. He wants every piece of content, every interview and eventually even his AI assistant to reflect the same person. Not an optimized version. The real one. What stays after this episode: Lior doesn't describe entrepreneurship as courage. He describes it as a way of looking at the world. A constant habit of questioning assumptions. Of asking "What's the worst that can happen?" Of refusing to believe that someone else gets to build the future simply because they started first. Maybe that's why "life is a game" resonates so strongly throughout the conversation. Not because games are easy. But because games are meant to be played. And the people who keep playing long enough eventually discover that most of the limits they believed in were rules they never had to accept in the first place.
