George talks to the filmmaker Rodney Ascher, whose latest doc is A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX.
We’ve had Ascher on the show before to discuss his inventive genre-bending docs Room 237 and The Nightmare.
A Glitch in the Matrix is a look at the increasingly popular simulation theory using Ascher's hyper-referential editing style, CGI animated first-person accounts, Philip K. Dick lectures, and the Matrix trilogy. Other interviews include Chris Ware, Nick Bostrom, Erik Davis, and Emily Pothast.
The soundtrack score by composer Jonathan Snipes just came out on vinyl from Deathbomb Arc.
You can rent the film or watch it on Hulu.
