If you enjoyed Time Code and are thinking about other films which 'play with form' under the cultural pressure of digital media, one area to investigate would be the Charlie Kaufman, Spike Jonze, Michel Gondry, Roman Coppola connection (films like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malcovich, Adaptation, Human Nature, Synecdoche, C.Q., Be Kind Rewind and/or the assorted music videos and short films these directors have produced). The fact that they share and form a sort of collaborative community is also important as they switch creative roles for each other's projects. Certain features of these films have also seeped into more mainstream films like the Will Ferrell feature Stranger Than Fiction or a number of Adam Sandler films like Punch-Drunk Love and specifically Click.
There are, of course, all those other generally sci-fi films which deal with digital media cultures overtly, in content. But that's a whole different story (which some of you might want to tackle).
