SEASON 2 AI DOUBLE FEATURE FINALE, MOVIE 1 OF 2. Andrew and special guest, Greg Jolley, discuss the meaning of Alex Garland's masterful and exquisite 2014 sci-Fi drama/thriller, Ex Machina. Oscar-winning for its incredible special effects utilized for subtle yet comprehensive narrative significance, this dazzling and cerebral experience explores the territory of artificial intelligence so effectively and intensely that you may have to completely rethink what is truly "artificial" and what isn't!
Andrew and Greg explore such topics as the interesting title, how the film conveys consciousness, the vast meaning of the opening image and sequence, the complicated ethics of the three lead characters, speculation about the motives and psychology of Nathan (Oscar Isaac), philosophical ideas conjured by the Ava character (Alicia Vikander), and much more!
LET'S FIND THE MEANING IN THE MACHINATIONS!!!
