Now, I understand D. Kahneman speech.
His thinking is interesting. He said that our "experiencing self" and "remembering self" are sometimes different, and in this situation "remembering self" is more dominated.
I think it's a kind of true. In my opinion, the reason "remembering self" is more dominated is that when you remember some memories, you know more thing compared to when you experienced the memory.
For example, when I was a high school student, I thought my life was so difficult.
(In Korea, the competition of entering university is very strong because Korea has small land, but lots of population.)
But now, I sometimes want to return to be a high school student, because now I've experienced social life is harder than high school life. Earning money is not that easy. :) This situation is caused by I have experienced many thing after I graduated from high school.
To conclude, if I have never experienced anything after I experience one thing, my "remembering self" also recognizes same as when I experince the thing. (It'squite a messy sentence.. :( )
I mean "remembering self" is changed by our "later experiences".

After read "Beowulf"
It's too difficult to understand. I know the movie "Beowulf" showed in the past, but I actually don't know the content. I think we usually study difficult literary works like the past's writings!

2001: A Space Odyssey
It's quite difficult to understand this movie. I think the movie director probably wants to show how much our technology has been improved, and will be improved in the future.
Honestly, I saw the movie uninterestingly. It wasn't my favorite style of movie. Especially, I still don't understand the last part of movie. Nevertheless, there is a interesting point of this movie. The most interesting part for me is that the thing "Hal" said to Dave.
When Dave wonders Hal has some problem, Hal says to Dave that Hal doesn't have any problem, and he also doesn't make any mistakes. Additionally, he says if there is a problem, it's caused by human.
This part was very interesting to me because Hal already has a kind of human mind. Hal doesn't open the door because he knows Dave will disconnect him. Hal is afraid he die. It is funny for me even though Hal has a human mind, he thinks he won't make any mistakes.
The message I get from this movie is that people are controlled by technology which we have made.
At first, the people look like gorilla first use the tools. At that time, they controll the tools. However, in the spaceship, people are controlled by the technology. People are very weak in front of uncontrolled technology. I think we have to be careful about our future when we make new technology.
