Art Is Cheaper Than Therapy

from the dot-com-failures-into-art dept

An article about the new documentary movie about the rise and fall of Kozmo points out that many people in the audience felt the need to compare it to Startup.com - another documentary about the rise and fall of a dot com startup. There are a ton of other similar projects in the works (or already completed) and the writer's theory is that this is all a form of therapy. That reliving the failure of the dot com world is just a cheaper form of therapy. You can go to a shrink, or you can laugh at the fools (who seem oh-so-familiar) who built their companies with such grand visions (and little else).
