They guy who voices the walking stick in A Bug’s Life?

The fatalistic, depressed, now-dead novelist and reporter ( David Foster Wallace - Wikipedia ) who wrote things like this: https://harpers.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/HarpersMagazine-1996-01-0007859.pdf

It was by the same writer/director who made Gattaca, which I did not know until I looked it up.

Hmm, it’s more, coherent than Ballard. More of a conventional plot going on. Plus, Gore Vidal!
