Zima Blue

I mentioned Alastair Reynolds in my previous post. There’s another short story of his that was turned into a short film on Netflix called Zima Blue. I will not add any spoilers but it is a pretty remarkable little film and story.

As I think about large-scale engineering and the Meso-Space-Mountain, I’ve been re-watching a few films that show large engineering structures. Elysium is a film that certainly shows massive engineering scale but also shows the problems of ignoring human rights and points towards finding paths that enable all of our communities to thrive and not just a small elite.
