The interesting thing about this article is all the examples it gives. Other than that, it isn't that new of an idea or concept. I think most people can recognize that artistic mediums feed off each other. I find it interesting that he didn't really talk about the part that books play in what we watch and go see. Reading isn't a pasttime for most people like it used to be, but most movies out this year aren't original screenplays. Hollywood, Broadway, and the more ambiguous place where books come from all feed off each other.
