Show Notes
This week, we're pulling back the curtain on the shady business dealings lurking within the world of virtual reality. We'll be diving into Brainstorm, a 1983 sci-fi thriller that explores the dark side of VR technology, and Empathy, Inc., a 2018 indie gem that reveals the sinister intentions behind a groundbreaking VR startup.
Both films shine a light on the ethical dilemmas and corporate greed that can arise when powerful new technologies are misused.
Join us as we uncover the twisted motives and dangerous secrets hidden within these virtual realities
