Heart-Shaped Box: Indie Films, Love & Frankensteining

September 16, 2015

It’s a big month for South African independent film!
In this episode, the crew gets deep with director Jenna Bass about her improvised indie heart-and-mind-bender, Love the One You Love
http://lovetheoneyoulove.club/, releasing Friday 18th September.
It goes deeper than just film-talk. We also chat to Lauren Smith from 'Violin in a Void' about simulation and sexuality in Alex Garland’s 'Ex Machina' – Artificial intelligence, artificial empathy and human nature.

In the round up: New methods for transporting organs, curing motion sickness through electrocution and creating a monster. Also, Martian spoons, and the movie, 'The Martian'.
Sex, love and robots. Love, humanity and beyond. Big questions.
