New Piece- Suicide Bomber article.

Ok, I get a call from an art director over at the San Francisco Chronicle to do a piece for an article on suicide bombers.

The article is an interview with a French film director who made a documnetary exploring the reasoning behind these bombers. The filmmaker makes the argument that the suicide bombers are doing this because of their repressed sexuality. He makes some interesting arguments, some of which I agree with, some I do not.

In the article some survivors of suicide bombings told the filmmaker that the bomber had a peaceful smile as he detonated himself. It is also mentioned that bombers are a lot like flashers who are seeking to destroy ones' innocence.

I normally don't deal with articles of this nature, so I was suprised when the art director told me that he liked how I do "dark"....

This piece will run in this sunday's edition of the SF Chronicle.
