  • 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.

I also dedicate this book to my ancestors from my mother’s side, who for centuries were able to move from Spain to Mexico and loved both countries in their hearts. This lesson remains for future generations. My father, of Spanish Sephardic origin, helped me so much, encouraging me in every intellectual pursuit. I hope that contemporary researchers share their knowledge and open their minds and hearts, valuing what other researchers do whatever their language or nation, as some academics have done for me.

However, this major research paper (MRP) focuses on developing an understanding of the function of the narrative within a film trailer and how this impacts its marketability.

  • 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.

  • Universal's Islands of Adventure®
    PAGE 1 1-DAY P ARK PLAN Universal’s Islands of Adventure® Harry Potter™ fans and families with teenagers will love Universal’s Islands of Adventure®. There are an abundance of thrill rides, including serious coasters in Incredible Hulk Coaster® and Dragon Challenge™, and the incredibly well- done The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man®. For families with younger children, there is still plenty to see and experience within the park, especially the water rides Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls® and Popeye & Bluto’s Bilge Rat Barges®. For toddlers, Seuss Landing™ is a Dr. Seuss book come to life in color and landscape, with the very best play area of any theme park we’ve encountered in If I Ran the Zoo™, and a number of tot-friendly attractions. Universal’s Islands of Adventure typically opens about half an hour ahead of the official opening, and we recommend you take advantage of this by arriving at least 45 minutes ahead of time. You’ll begin your journey inside the Port of Entry® and then hop around the various “islands” scattered about the lagoon. We recommend staying on-site at one of the Universal Orlando® Resort hotels and begin your journey in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade™, since it’s easily the most crowded area of Universal’s Islands of Adventure®. Potter fans will want to spend time soaking up the magic, having the perfect wand claim them at Ollivanders™, sampling a cauldron cake at Honeydukes™ or enjoying a pint of Butterbeer™ at Three Broomsticks™. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™ is the park’s headliner, a spectacular journey in which guests board an “enchanted bench” that takes them on a flight through Hogwarts™ castle and beyond.
