PKD Festival - A Brief History of Time Travel Documentary with Dr. Ron Mallett

Details

The Philip K Dick Film Festival takes place this week at The Museum of the Moving Image, from Wednesday, March 4 until Sunday, March 8. Details and program are available at: https://www.thephilipkdickfilmfestival.com/ . This year they have a very interesting selection of films and shorts with definite interest for Futurists.

On Saturday, the festival will be showing "A Brief History of Time Travel", taking you on a journey through the evolution of time travel, from its origins and influence in science fiction to the exciting possibilities technology could yet uncover. Through interviews with experts across a variety of fields: theoretical physicists, game designers, spiritual leaders to futurist authors, to name a few - A Brief History of Time Travel explores a breadth of unique perspectives that travel far beyond quantum mechanics.

After the screening will be a Q+A with the director and Dr. Ron Mallett: Professor at the University of Connecticut, and theoretical physicist who believes building a time machine is possible in our near-distant future.

Here is the trailer for the film: https://youtu.be/5RzlZzyuZ9k
