  • Between Technophobia and Futuristic Dreams. Visions of the Possible Technological Development in Black Mirror and Westworld Series
    Agnieszka Kiejziewicz Between technophobia and futuristic dreams. Visions of the possible technological development in Black Mirror and Westworld series Jagiellonian University Introduction The dualism in perceiving the technology on the Western ground, not only as a blessing connected with the rapid development of the civilization but also as a possible reason for the future fall of the humanity, can be dated back to the literary works such as Frankenstein (1818) by Marry Shelley, dystopian Brave New World (1932) by Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)1 or Fritz Lang’s filmMetropolis (1927). However, it was no sooner than in the late 1950s when the discourse about the influence of technology on the society appeared in numerous forms of art. The writers such as William Burroughs (1914–1997)2, Phillip K. Dick (1928–1982)3 or the techno-prophet Marshall McLuhan (1918–1980)4 observed that to extend their perception, sensations and abilities, people cling to technology represented by various devices, what brings the humanity closer to the apocalypse the overused technology is to cause. The inspiration of the findings provided by the theorists in 1 See: Bloom, Harold, ed. Aldous Huxley. New York: Bloom’s Literary Criticism, 2010. 2 See: Hibbard, Allen. Conversations with William S. Burroughs. Jackson: University Press of Missis- sippi, 1999. W. Burroughs, alongside Jack Kerouack and Allen Ginsberg was a distinctive figure of the Beat Generation. He was the author of the novels as, later filmed by David Cronenberg,Naked Lunch (1959) or The Nova Trilogy (1961-1967), many short stories and non-fictional contributions. 3 See: Palmer, Christopher.

  • Kong: Skull Island Announced
    News release February 2017 MADAME TUSSAUDS LONDON GOES APE OVER KONG: SKULL ISLAND DELIVERY Iconic attractions in London and New York get set to welcome Kong: Skull Island experience 21st February 2017. Today, Madame Tussauds London signed for a monstrous delivery that is set to be a roaring success at the iconic attraction, with the arrival of a larger than life Kong: Skull Island experience. In partnership with Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, Madame Tussauds London and Madame Tussauds New York will bring the experience to life with an eight-foot, multi-sensory animatronic head of the gigantic ape that will wow and terrify visitors in equal measure. Guests can expect to embark on an adventure deep into the tropical environment of the infamous Skull Island, where they will be challenged to evade the traps of colossal petrifying spiders and uncover artifacts from the film. As they journey through the secluded bamboo jungle, they will be joined by a new wax figure of Captain James Conrad, played by British actor Tom Hiddleston in the upcoming film, before coming face to face with the enormous breathing, blinking, snarling and roaring mystical monster himself. The enormous animatronic Kong head, made from 64 square metres of specialist faux hair, took 72 days to build and create by 33 team members. Each movement of the head uses state of the art pneumatic controls which was designed specifically for Kong. The system precisely controls the pressure and flow of air to recreate life like facial movements, grunts, snorts and roars made by the ferocious beast.

  • LAMORINDA WEEKLY | 'Jurassic World'
    LAMORINDA WEEKLY | 'Jurassic World' Published June 17th, 2015 'Jurassic World' By Derek Zemrak Oakland native Colin Trevorrow directed "Jurassic World," the fourth film in the Jurassic Park franchise. Trevorrow previously directed the highly acclaimed independent film "Safety Not Guaranteed" in 2012, which was awarded an Independent Spirit Award for Best First Feature. It was because of this movie that Steven Spielberg offered Trevorrow the opportunity to direct "Jurassic World," and resurrect what is quickly becoming a failing franchise. We all would agree the first film, "Jurassic Park," was an instant classic. It was new, fresh and it took filmmaking to a new level but since then the two sequels just didn't take us there. I would have to say that Trevorrow, who also co-wrote the script, makes a solid attempt at reviving the Jurassic Park magic. This time the dinosaur amusement park is the biggest attraction in the world, with over 20,000 dinosaur lovers a day visiting its location in Costa Rica. Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard, "The Help") and her two nephews, Gray (Ty Simpkins, "Insidious") and Zach (Nick Robinson, "The Kings of Summer") run the park. Gary loves dinosaurs and he is in heaven in the Sea World--like amusement park, which even has a Shamu type exhibit. To keep the park going, Claire's team creates a "super-predator" called Indominus Rex. Claire realizes that Indominus Rex will bring in more corporate sponsorship and keep the money rolling in. It is the greed of creating bigger and stronger Image provided dinosaurs that creates destruction in the park and on the island.

  • Hbo Premieres Original Drama Film the Normal Heart
    HBO PREMIERES ORIGINAL DRAMA FILM “THE NORMAL HEART” Broadway run, and directed by Emmy® winner Ryan Murphy, the powerful film tells the story of the rise of the HIV-AIDS crisis in New York in the early 80’s. It takes an unflinching look at the nation’s sexual politics as gay activists and their allies in the medical community fought to expose the truth about the burgeoning epidemic to a city and nation in denial. The Normal Heart brings together a cast of talented actors, including Mark Ruffalo as Ned Weeks, a gay writer looking for answers as he witnesses how the mysterious illness begins to take a heavy toll on the gay community; Matt Bomer as Felix Turner, a reporter who becomes Ned’s lover; Taylor Kitsch as Bruce Niles, a closeted investment banker who becomes a prominent AIDS activist; Emmy® winner Jim Parsons as activist Tommy Boatwright, the same role he played on the Broadway version in 2011; and for the first time in an HBO production, Julia Roberts as Dr. Emma Brookner, a childhood survivor of polio who treats many of the early victims of HIV-AIDS. The drama also stars Alfred Molina in the role of Ben, a successful attorney and Ned’s older brother; Tony® winner Joe Mantello as Mickey Marcus; Jonathan Groff (HBO’s “Looking”) as Craig; Denis O’Hare (HBO’s “True Blood”) as Hiram Keebler; Stephen Spinella as Sanford; Corey Stoll as John Bower; Finn Wittrock as Albert; and BD Wong (HBO’s “Oz”) as Buzzy. The Normal Heart was directed by Ryan Murphy (“Eat, Pray, Love” and “Glee”); written by Larry Kramer; executive produced by Murphy, Dante Di Loreto, Jason Blum, Brad Pitt and Dede Gardner; co-executive produced by Ruffalo; and produced by Scott Ferguson (HBO’s “Temple Grandin”).

    TRANSMEDIA Edited by Sean Guynes and Dan Hassler-Forest STAR WARS and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.
