This may be slightly off-topic…or not. Inspired by Naomi’s post about her son mechanically solving a Rubik’s Cube, I thought of this famous video, of the film director Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), “solving” a Rubik’s Cube with his feet.
What Gondry is really doing, though, is presenting us, much like a detective novel, with a puzzle…
I used to be able to solve Rubik’s Cubes just by looking at them. They would become so terrified that they would solve themselves; however, they no longer respect me enough to do so…
Sigh.
