    IntroductionHi! My name is Louis. This is (hopefully) my second to last semester in this program. So, I am getting near the end. I live in Hollywood […]

    • Nice to meet you, Louis! Last semester, I took a class and one of my assignments was the evaluation of incorporating the Orbit Reader for patrons of the Braille Institute Library. Here’s to a good semester!

      • Nice to meet you! That sounds like an interesting project! It’s a really great library and I’m glad to hear it’s being discussed in some of these courses.

    • Greetings @Louis! I am happy to read about your experience and interest in film. I did a minor in film studies during my undergrad. I recall focusing on film noir, horror films and semiotics, and exp[erimental film making.

      Welcome to #hyperlib!

      • Oh nice! That sounds like really interesting blend. I mainly focused on European art-house and experimental film while in school, but my tastes have expanded to include noir (thanks TCM!) and a much greater appreciation for horror. The latter took me a while to come around on because when I was younger, the tension during the build up to the inevitable jump-scares worked too well for me. It was more stress than the movies were worth. While I’m still not a fan of all that, I’ve come to really enjoy the wide range of horror films that are mostly moody and weird and full of incredible images.

    • Hi Louis,

      Thanks for the link to the Wiseman Retrospective! I live in Hollywood too (just moved to Little Armenia).

      The Braille Institute Library sounds very interesting. I’ve never been there but would love to visit and learn more.

      Cheers!
