[ExI] We Need a Movie, People!! Dammit!

[Natasha Vita-More]

When I was in the film industry working with Zoetrope and Fox, and making 
videos,  I really wanted to make a transhumanist film.  That was in the 
80s.  I pitched ideas to Schlöndorff , Malle and Bertolucci, and dear Paul 
Kohner; but  they weren't interested in the future.  Times have certainly 
changed.

But If anyone has a story you want me to look at, I do have the 
contacts.  It does not matter that I am hibernating in Austin and working 
on a PhD, I still have friends and supporters in the film industry.

Best wishes,
Natasha

If you draw a circle in the sand and study only what's inside the circle, 
then that is a closed-system perspective. If you study what is inside the 
circle and everything outside the circle, then that is an open system 
perspective. - Buckminster Fuller
