  • Beyond Westworld
    “We Don’t Know Exactly How They Work”: Making Sense of Technophobia in 1973 Westworld, Futureworld, and Beyond Westworld Stefano Bigliardi Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane - Morocco Abstract This article scrutinizes Michael Crichton’s movie Westworld (1973), its sequel Futureworld (1976), and the spin-off series Beyond Westworld (1980), as well as the critical literature that deals with them. I examine whether Crichton’s movie, its sequel, and the 1980s series contain and convey a consistent technophobic message according to the definition of “technophobia” advanced in Daniel Dinello’s 2005 monograph. I advance a proposal to develop further the concept of technophobia in order to offer a more satisfactory and unified interpretation of the narratives at stake. I connect technophobia and what I call de-theologized, epistemic hubris: the conclusion is that fearing technology is philosophically meaningful if one realizes that the limitations of technology are the consequence of its creation and usage on behalf of epistemically limited humanity (or artificial minds). Keywords: Westworld, Futureworld, Beyond Westworld, Michael Crichton, androids, technology, technophobia, Daniel Dinello, hubris. 1. Introduction The 2016 and 2018 HBO series Westworld by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy has spawned renewed interest in the 1973 movie with the same title by Michael Crichton (1942-2008), its 1976 sequel Futureworld by Richard T. Heffron (1930-2007), and the short-lived 1980 MGM TV series Beyond Westworld. The movies and the series deal with androids used for recreational purposes and raise questions about technology and its risks. I aim at an as-yet unattempted comparative analysis taking the narratives at stake as technophobic tales: each one conveys a feeling of threat and fear related to technological beings and environments.

  • Michael Crichton
    Michael Crichton Genre: Science fiction/Thrillers/Adventure Remember that huge movie years ago called Jurassic Park? Did you know that was based off of Michael Crichton’s book of the same name? Michael Crichton’s books can extremely detailed and involve science, adventure, political and thriller elements. While most famous for Jurassic Park and it’s sequel, The Lost World, he has written many other books tackling a wide range of subjects. The Great Train Robbery is his foray into historical fiction, and Rising Sun is a suspense story with political elements. Read-a-likes Greg Bear If you the science fiction aspect of Crichton, try Greg Bear. The Forge of God is disaster science fiction where two sets of aliens visit Earth and set in motion humanity’s demise. Darwin’s Radio tackles human evolution, where as Blood Music deals with nanotechnology. Philip Kerr Like Crichton, Kerr’s books are in a wide variety of genres. His Bernie Gunther novels, starting with March Violets, start a detective during the World War II period. The Second Angel and The Grid are science fiction thrillers, much like Crichton’s. Dark Matter: The Private Life of Sir Isaac Newton: A Novel is Kerr’s stab at historical mystery. John Darnton A scientific thriller writer, Darnton’s novels explore human cloning, evolution, and the soul. His book Mind Catcher deals with whether souls can be transferred to a computer chip. Two scientists get caught up in a conspiracy when they discover ancient ancestors of human in Neanderthal. Steven Alten If you have a taste for science fiction thrillers that are on the weird side, try Alten’s books.

  • Next 'Star Wars' Film to Score in Los Angeles for the First Time in Franchise History
    American Federation of Musicians Local 47 AFL-CIO/CLC ` Press Contact: Linda A. Rapka FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 323.993.3162 [email protected] Next ‘Star Wars’ Film to Score in Los Angeles for the First Time in Franchise History LOS ANGELES, CA (MARCH 24, 2015) — The Force is with Los Angeles musicians: For the first time in the film saga’s history, the musical score to “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” will be recorded in Los Angeles by members of the American Federation of Musicians Local 47. Composer John Williams—himself a Life Member of Local 47—is currently at work writing the music for this seventh installment in the “Star Wars” franchise. Williams has composed the music for every film in the series since its 1977 debut. While previous films were scored at Abbey Road with the London Symphony Orchestra, “The Force Awakens” marks the first time a “Star Wars” score will be recorded in the United States. This project will generate millions in wages, benefits, and other production spending for the Hollywood film scoring community, which has suffered from an increase in offshoring of work during the past several years. Scoring sessions for “The Force Awakens” will take place over the span of several months beginning in April by freelance members of the Los Angeles musicians union Local 47, also known as the Hollywood Studio Orchestra. The orchestra will be put together by music contractor Sandy De Crescent, whose work with Williams began in the early 1970s with Los Angeles orchestras contracted for “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” “Jaws,” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” Over the years they have collaborated on several dozen films including Los-Angeles scored films “Superman,” “Jurassic Park,” “Schindler’s List,” “Memoirs of a Geisha,” “War Horse,” “The Adventures of Tintin,” and most recently “The Book Thief,” which won the Grammy for Best Instrumental Album and was nominated for Oscar, BAFTA and Golden Globe awards.
