ROTWANG GIP

[prog]

I swear to god I just happened to find this image on my hard drive a minute ago. It's Rotwang, the batshit insane cyberneticist from Fritz Lang's "Metropolis", and a template for the mad-scientist visual stereotype that would develop over the 20th century. It's pronounced ROHT-VAHNG but believe me he's heard it all.

I am fixing problems with exploding filehandles. It causes me to find things like this.

I saw the movie on a big screen. But I've got Metropolis by Kraftwerk in my head. I wish I had it in my HD, too.
