Brian Lam Talks Martial Arts on BoingBoing
June 11, 2010
Brian Lam, the proprieter and editorial director of the gadget blog Gizmodo has a great article up on BoingBoing about martial arts. If you didn’t know, Brian used to train and teach at Fairtex in San Francisco before blowing up in the gadget blog world. The article discusses Brian’s experience training there, the therapeutic qualities of practicing martial arts, and the fateful day that gym owner Alex Gong was murdered.
The article is framed with the controversy surrounding the title of Jackie Chan’s remake of “The Karate Kid”. The remake keeps the name of the original film despite the fact that it features kung fu rather than karate.
