Wednesday: I'm part of an audience at UC Santa Barbara. Werner Herzog reiterates that the intent of his films is to arrive at an "ecstatic truth" of humanity.

truth: "The enigma of Casper Hauser (1812-1833): a child isolated from human contact for the first sixteen years of life.

Although he appeared completely retarded, his senses were extremely acute; he possessed unusual sensitivity toward animals, people and metals."
