A Scene from Infinite Jest in the Xtranormal Style

Mario can’t sleep. Hal tells a joke. Not sure how I feel about this.

  1. Yeah, that’s just weird. Great scene in the novel, but there’s something creepy about this. Also, Wallace’s dialog doesn’t work at all when spoken like this…

    1. I think it’s cool someone tried it using the xtranormal software–and I also think the scene is a pretty good one to illustrate–but it just doesn’t work. I guess I just imagine them lying down in the dark in the scene. And Mario’s not a girl. And they’re not pigs or dogs or whatever the fuck those xtranormal things are. Still, an interesting attempt.

  2. All I know is that has to be one of my favorite lines from the novel: “I have administrative bones to pick with God, Boo. I’ll say God seems to have a kind of laid-back management style I’m not crazy about. I’m pretty much anti-death. God looks by all accounts to be pro-death. I’m not seeing how we can get together on this issue, he and I, Boo.”
