Putting the U in UI

A really excellent post from Matt Jones on Robot AI.

“The ‘wily’ tactic then would be to stay far away from the valley – aim to make technology behave with empathic qualities that aren’t human at all, and let us fill in the gaps as we do so well.”

I want to remake Star Wars

So, probably every Star Wars fan, and geek has thought about it, but I have been thinking about remaking Star Wars.  Star Wars : Drone Version.

Each episode is about 7-8 hours long. Perhaps more I haven’t done the maths.

Same story, same action, but long, really long shots.

So tracking across Tatoine the landspeeder, same shot, but slow. Slug slow. a 3 minute shot tracking the Landspeeder across the desert

Image from http://www.starwarslocations.com/swarchive/wellers/randsburg1.html

Hoth, the snow, the cold - 

Long tracking shots looking for probe droids.

Not all of it will be slow. 

The cantina will be more like the opening shot of Casino, again 1 long tracking shot, around the aliens drinking.

It would give a Kubrick like feel to space.

Huge Imperial Star Cruiser docking over 12 minute sequences.

Beautiful fly bys of Tie fighters, making space feel larger, more dramatic, bigger and less like a video game.

anyway.
