This movie
It gets a bit weird! And we have a bit of a time summarizing it.
Storytelling
Adventure stories. Social allegory. The power of science fiction in particular to force you to reframe your perception by believably breaking your assumptions. HG Wells and Moreau. Science fiction tropes and the subversion thereof. Christopher is bad at human things.
Code Switching
Languages, dialect, and speaking to your audience. “Not having to think about it.”
Media
Mass media vs indie communities. The lowest common denominator. Kevin Kelly’s 1000 True Fans.
Milk stuff
A lament for the concentration on cow’s milk. Mare milk. Fermented milk products from cows and horses.
