Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey is often called one of the greatest films ever made—but does it hold up for today's viewers? We break down what makes this sci-fi classic both groundbreaking and, at times, surprisingly goofy. From the epic classical music and long black screens to the infamous “Dawn of Man” sequence, we share our honest reactions and why we both landed on a 5 out of 10.You know the routine—drop your thoughts in the comments, let us know if you think 2001 is a masterpiece or just a relic, and don't forget to subscribe for more no-nonsense movie reviews!
Our guest today is Roger Mayer, one of the most influential scholars in the field of trust and co-creator of a widely cited model of organizational trust. After attending Roger's presentation at the FINT Conference in Genoa, Italy, podcast host Severin de Wit sat down with him for a conversation on the evolving nature of trust and the surprising role that suspicion plays within it. The conversation begins with two striking images from Mayer's FINT talk: HAL 9000, the eerily calm AI from the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey", and the Shoggoth, a chaotic, shapeshifting creature recently adopted as a meme in AI circles. Mayer uses these metaphors to illustrate a central dilemma: as AI systems become more powerful and autonomous, how do we trust something we don't fully understand? Mayer introduces the concept of state-level suspicion, based on research by Bobko, Barelka, and Hirshfield. He explains that suspicion isn't just a gut feeling; it's a cognitive state involving uncertainty, heightened awareness, and the perception of possible harm. Far from being purely negative, suspicion may serve as a protective and even constructive force in complex organizational settings. A major focus of the episode is what Mayer calls Organizational Dissociative Identity Disorder (ODID). In this phenomenon, organizations send conflicting signals to employees, behave inconsistently, or act as if they have “multiple personalities.” Whether caused by mergers, mission drift, or rogue internal actors, ODID can undermine trust and leave employees feeling destabilized. Roger discusses how AI can further complicate this dynamic when its decision-making processes are opaque or misaligned with human expectations. Roger Mayer previously appeared on TrustTalk in our March 13, 2024 episode, where we explored the foundations of his trust model. In this follow-up conversation, we focus on the emerging tensions between trust, technology, and organizational coherence.
Before they discuss next week's '2001: A Space Odyssey', the guys run down their top five iconic final shots in movies. You know, because of space babies!
Elton's diving into Arthur C. Clarke's absolute acid trip of a book (okay, maybe just the ending), "2001: A Space Odyssey" – you know, the one with the soft spoken computer that murders it's crew to keep a secret? [SPOILERS] And those mysterious black rectangles that basically trolled humanity for millions of years.Here's what's happening this episode:Who was Arthur C. Clarke anyway? Turns out the guy invented the satellites that keep your phone connected to the world...in the 1940s. He even predicted we'd all be doom-scrolling on the internet way before anyone knew what WiFi was. Plus, he was part of sci-fi's holy trinity with Isaac Asimov and Robert Heinlein. So, a nerd circle jerk. Well, maybe not...THAT, but a pretty important guy. He did well for guy who started out fiddling with radar during WWII.Join Elton as he walks through this wild ride from cavemen discovering tools to humans becoming space gods. There's evolution, mystery, and murder A.I., and honestly? A lot of nerdly nerd stuff that'll make your brain EXPAND in the best way. Don't worry – Elton takes a brunt of the load.The Clarke-Kubrick team-up: Clarke and director Stanley Kubrick basically wrote the book and movie at the same time, which sounds like a nightmare but somehow worked. They turned a short story called "The Sentinel" (Arthur hates that) and turn it into the most mind-f*cking sci-fi movie ever made, though it wasn't all dry humping and champagne.Whether you're into classic sci-fi, love a good book-to-movie story, or just want to understand why HAL 9000 is everyone's least favorite AI, this episode's got you covered. Fair warning: you might have an existential crisis. So, go easy on the sci-fi.GET THE BOOK: From AmazonFrom an Indie Book SellerBECOME AN Elton Reads A Book A Week CONTRIBUTOR HERE:Elton Reads A Book A Week PatreonTips!SOCIAL MEDIA!

This week we are bleeding from the ears from high-pitched screeching sounds while we discuss “Founder's Mutation”! We're talking the return of James Wong, our love for the strangely blase coworker, Gupta From My Phone, Mulder giving off the wrong signals, Scully back on her quaalude habit, and why wristwatch models shouldn't be evil scientists. We enjoy Skinner's office redesign, say hello to Abigail from Hannibal and goodbye just as quickly, smell the distinct whiff of Folger's coffee commercial energy, wonder why Scully's hospital is so evil, and how it's so real that Mulder would show 2001: A Space Odyssey to his 5-year-old.

Author D. Harlan Wilson joins Mike to discuss his latest book, Strangelove Country, a collection of critical fictions examining four of Stanley Kubrick's most influential science fiction films: Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, and A.I. Artificial Intelligence. Blurring the lines between criticism, fiction, and satire, Wilson explores how Kubrick's work continues to shape cultural narratives about technology, violence, human identity, and control.The conversation covers Wilson's experimental approach to writing, the enduring legacy of Kubrick's cinema, and how speculative fiction and critical theory intersect. Together, they examine how Kubrick's visions of the future—and their contradictions—remain as unsettling and relevant as ever.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

We've come to the end...or is it the beginning? This is part 4 of my series of episodes about the emotional and intellectual contact Stanley Kubrick made between movie-goers and his epic science-fiction film of 1968. Here's the amazing mashup between Pink Floyd's 'Echoes' and the final sequence of 2001. Please sign up for my newsletter if you haven't; it's free and filled with random recommendations based on what I'm reading, watching and listening to on a given week. Some of it podcast-adjacent and some totally unrelated.
In Part 3, I geek out into how incredible and evocative the HAL sequences are in this film; what an amazing sense of character and personality Kubrick creates through the use of Doug Rain's iconic, best-in-class voiceover and the varying cutaways to HAL's electronic eye in scenes featuring the computer. Be sure to check out my other episodes covering the other sections of 2001. Next up: THE STAR GATE sequence in Jupiter And Beyond The Infinite.

In part 2 of my four-part series on 2001, I am going through the TMA-1 (Tycho Magnetic Anomaly One) sequence in which Dr. Haywood Floyd of "The Council" visits the International Space Station, diverts some Russian scientist attentions, presents a specious, US Governmental coverup of the Clavius discovery to a group of cowed committee members, and then embarks to Clavius base on the Moon to visit the Monolith. This sequence famously uses Johann Strauss' 'The Blue Danube' as well as additional modern pieces by Ligeti.

I want to podcast with you. Without speaking. On this episode of Deep Cut Upkeep we step into 1950s Mexico City and dive into the lush world of Luca Guadagnino's Queer. Wilson expands more on his love for the film and why it topped his 2024 film list. Eli talks about the narrative constraints of this (bio)pic about William S. Burroughs. Ben draws links between Queer and Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Together, we talk about performance, Guadagnino's eye for style, debate that Ayahuasca sequence, and end the episode with a quick round of Luca Guadagnino power rankings.

D. Harlan Wilson's Strangelove Country is a deft, innovative study of Stanley Kubrick's relationship with science fiction that explores how the genre shaped his cinematic identity and how that identity reshaped the genre. Focusing on Kubrick's futurist trilogy—Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and A Clockwork Orange—as well as his collaboration with Steven Spielberg on A.I. Artificial Intelligence, Wilson takes a unique approach that is at once scholarly and defiant of academic stodge. Specifically, he views the “Kubrickian consciousness” through the lens of schizoanalysis and filmosophy, methods of inquiry that he uses to probe how Kubrick's oeuvre forms a singular, autonomous, interstitial “filmind” distinct from the director, with its own way of thinking, seeing, and being. Synthesizing film theory, critical analysis, and novelistic technique, Wilson reaffirms Kubrick's status as one of the twentieth century's greatest auteurs while casting new light on the filmmaker's extraordinary contribution to the history of cinema.

The Scariest Movie EVER Made? Well upon its initial release forty-five years ago, not many critics saw it that way INCLUDING the author of the original novel which this film was based on, Stephen King. But over time, this psychological thriller directed by the late, great Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut) has garnerned not only a devoted following but a never-ending stream of speculation about what it meant. Many love it for the memorable main lead performance by Oscar-winner Jack Nicholson (Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Batman) as Jack Torrance, an aspiring writer whose family ends up situated at a VERY remote location known as the Overlook Hotel....he's an aspiring writer but as the winter progresses, he starts to lose his mind. Also with him are his beleaguered wife Wendy played by the late, great Shelley Duvall (Popeye, 3 Women, Roxanne) and their young son Danny (Danny Lloyd) who has begun to experience a sort of psychic power known as.....THE SHINING. :o Also co-starring Scatman Crothers, Joe Turkel, and Barry Nelson, this horror classic has launched spin-off documentaries, weak imitations, and loads of memes - let's head to the Overlook Hotel!

While drive-in theaters are few and far between these days, there are still ways to catch a movie in a unique venue. Such is the case with the famous Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, which has a "Film on the Rocks" series each summer. Co-host Terry Lipshetz shares his thoughts on seeing "2001: A Space Odyssey" at Red Rocks during a recent trip to Denver. Co-host Bruce Miller also previews the Emmy Awards nominations, which are due out soon and some of the shows that might load up the nominations, such as "The Pitt," "The White Lotus," "Nobody Wants This" and "Andor." The hosts also talke the 50th anniversary of "Jaws" and the new trailers for "Wicked: For Good" and "Alien: Earth." About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is now the editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, a senior producer for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY
The first of my four-part series on Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey' covers some introductory approach notes and the first sequence in the film: 'The Dawn Of Man'. In these episodes I want to avoid a nerdy technical discussion about how the filmmakers did what they did in this extraordinary, still-vital film masterpiece and instead focus on the remarkable ability of the film to inspire thoughts and feelings in its viewers. For a bibliography of resources consulted in the research of these episodes, check out my 6/13 newsletter for links to materials you might find of interest.

When Does a Machine Wake Up? The Possibility of Sentient AI.Imagine asking your smart speaker, “How are you feeling today?”—and receiving a reply that sounds just a little too real. Not programmed, not synthetic, but reflective. It pauses before answering, as if considering your question. Could a machine one day truly feel? Could artificial intelligence become sentient?We've seen the idea played out endlessly in science fiction—from HAL 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey to Ava in Ex Machina, from the empathetic robots of Westworld to Renyke in Immersion (yes, your friendly blog author's own creation). But outside the realm of fiction, what does science—and philosophy—say about machine consciousness?Let's explore the possibilities, the hurdles, and the haunting question that keeps researchers, ethicists, and futurists up at night: Could an AI actually wake up?

On today's episode of the Occult Symbolism and Pop Culture with Isaac Weishaupt podcast we start a deep dive into Portals! In Part 1 we'll define the term from the idea of literal gateways to the metaphysical concept of thresholds and how they represent transitions between worlds or unlocking enlightenment through magick rituals using triangles of manifestation and magical circles. We'll talk about Carl Jung's symbolism of the portal as a gateway to the subconscious or shadow and we'll get into the tools used for portals like scrying stones or bathtubs. Finally we'll run through a ton of pop culture portals you've seen in your favorite films like Alice in Wonderland, 2001: A Space Odyssey or Twin Peaks!Stay subscribed to the show for Part 2 where we'll talk about literal portals- where are they, how are they constructed and who was messing around with these things. I'll provide examples from Jack Parsons to Britney Spears and Travis Scott before we get into the more modern concepts of portals when it comes to aliens and A.I. where we'll talk about the CCRU and AI entities crossing over into our world…Links:Stranger Things S1 and S4 analysis series: https://illuminatiwatcher.com/stranger-things-s1-occult-symbolism-of-eleven-mkultra-monolith-stargate-project-monarch/Kobe Bryant's Occult Kids Books: ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED! https://www.illuminatiwatcher.com/kobe-bryants-occult-kids-books-illuminati-confirmedWizard of Oz Esoteric Analysis: L.

Marvel has published many licensed comic books over the years, many of which are obviously not intended to be part of their superhero universe.

There are many titles with famous year's in them. There's 1776, a movie about the birthday of the United States, there's the movie, “2001 – A Space Odyssey,” In print, there's George Orwell's prophetic book, “1984,” and who could forget Prince, who partied like it was 1999.

Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey isn't just a sci-fi classic—it's a cinematic milestone that changed the language of film. In this video, we break down the film's mysterious symbolism, groundbreaking visuals, and philosophical questions about evolution, technology, and humanity's place in the universe. Whether you're a film buff, a philosophy nerd, or a JRPG fan who spotted the Xenogears influence a mile away, this deep dive is for you!

"Vibe Coding" ist ein Versprechen: Ab sofort muss niemand mehr selbst programmieren können, wenn eine coole Idee für eine App entsteht - die Umsetzung überlässt man einfach der KI. Fritz und Gregor testen, wie weit sie wirklich kommen, wenn KI-Systeme die Programmierarbeit erledigen. Bei großen Tech-Konzernen ist dieser Trend längst angekommen, doch funktioniert das auch für Laien? Die beiden Hosts bauen fragwürdige Websites und Apps mit ChatGPT und diskutieren, was uns Vibe Coding über die Zukunft der KI-Welt verraten könnte. Über die Hosts: Gregor Schmalzried ist freier Tech-Journalist, Speaker und Berater, u.a. beim Bayerischen Rundfunk. Fritz Espenlaub ist freier Journalist und Ökonom. Er arbeitet unter anderem für den Bayerischen Rundfunk und das Tech-Magazin 1E9.

Join us and dive headfirst into the chaotic, brain-melting acid trip that is Lucy (2014), Luc Besson's cinematic fever dream starring Scarlett Johansson and Morgan Freeman. Right from the start, we knew we were in for it: bad science, a “sketch services” level plot, and the kind of dialogue that feels like it was written by a dolphin with a grudge. We got the whole gang together to dissect this mess with our usual irreverent flair, roasting everything from the film's lazy international logic to its “USB stick of universal knowledge” ending. Honestly, it was like watching 2001: A Space Odyssey if Kubrick had been blackout drunk and obsessed with PowerPoint transitions. As always, the chaos around the table was half the fun. We went full throttle into the ridiculousness of ScarJo turning into a floating Fred Astaire balloon, controlling time and matter with 20% of her brain (because science), and ultimately becoming “Wi-Fi with titties.” The callbacks and inside jokes were flying faster than Lucy's totally-not-real powers. Between wild tangents about dolphins, King of the Hill, and awkward animal mating montages, it was the most we've ever laughed at a movie that made us question our life choices. The frustration was real though. Dan, our resident physicist, compared the experience to “watching your grandparents get assaulted.” Elise gave us the all-time review of Lucy as “an acid trip with a science fair poster taped to it.” And Manny… well, Manny owned up to nominating this movie after loving it once while, let's say, chemically enhanced. Rewatching it sober? Not so much. We collectively agreed: Lucy was a one-time ride, and even that was one too many. But hey, if you love our affectionate chaos and want to hear us go fully unhinged on a movie that somehow made $469 million worldwide, this episode is an absolute banger. It's the perfect blend of exasperated movie talk, relentless roasting, and pure group therapy. Come for the dolphin trivia, stay for the unfiltered pain. You won't regret listening… just don't watch the movie.
