Director : Jason Silva : The Immortalists
-What was the motivation/inspiration behind creating “The Immortalists”? I wanted the film to be a love letter to scientific boldness: to the idea of rising up against an indifferent universe where everyone dies and say 'this is unnacceptable". People rationalize death as a good thing in a poetic sense because there's been no other option, (and we're clever creatures). We have an ability to take even the most absurd tragedies and make poetry out of them. But perhaps now that science is knocking on our door with potential freedom from our most palpable limitations; we should seize the opportunity. My film ...

Director/Visual Artist : Jean Paul Frenay
ARTIFICIAL PARADISE,INC. from Jp Frenay on Vimeo. Your film Artificial Paradise, Inc. is very interesting. I really enjoy not only films but stories in general that bring you into a new world. The info given on the film states that it’s experimental. Can you elaborate on the film and what inspired it? Artificial Paradise, Inc was born from a desire I had to move away from the commercial work and bring some of my friends together around a project like Sandro Paoli, the director of the 3D cell at Condor, which immediately agreed to help me with its team and Seal Phüric, ...
Photographer : Cameron Smith (Q&A)
-What inspires your work? Life. Specifically my everyday life. I think artists try to express what they find fascinating about their own lives to other people through a medium. I was always awful at drawing and painting so I used photography as my expression of what I find beautiful in life which is usually everything. -How long have you been doing photography? My uncle used to let me mess around with his Polaroid camera when I was younger. The instantaneous nature of this camera was crazy to me. That this camera could capture a moment that could never be seen again is ...
Director : David Madry : Boharg II (Q&A)
-What inspired the film "Boharg II"? I made Boharg I in 2007, it was the second Film I ever directed. It is pretty much the same as Boharg II, but much worse. When I stumbled across that beautiful location in fall 2008, I instantly knew that I wanted to shoot a sequel to Boharg there. I knew that it would be a spontaneus project so I didn’t even bother to find an actor. I know my acting sucks but that’s part of the whole Boharg-thing. -Whats the concept behind the film? We started shooting without a concept at all. I was just walking ...
