This series of short art/poetry films was an original design idea for the Kindle. Unfortunately, Amazon.com went with another idea ~ to make the Kindle look and feel like a book (something it can never achieve) instead of playing to its strength (that it is an electronic device with a screen for visuals). The Sony Reader is equally as dull. Both Amazon.com and Sony (and all publishers of e-books) are creating what amounts to a pdf document for your computer terminal. Is reading on your computer terminal the same kind of experience as reading a book? No! This is why these films were created. The production quality may be poor and the design flawed but the effect is delightful and the result is much more interesting than anything on the Kindle. And the poetry is great!
