'Looker' (1981)

[rachel]

This is the 1981 film 'Looker', it is somewhat dated, but it is an interesting with regards to the company, 'Digital Matrix' and its computer generated actors. From over 40 years ago.

@napoleon, that was a good review.
I agree, Albert Finney is a class act. I also always liked James Coburn.

a speculum or small balck stone was used as a device to mark the stars or celestial gods movements constellations etc ,i have searched all over for this information ,and for the life of me i can’t find it ,it was very close to a negative of some celestial bodies from different parts of the world ,collect them all free binder with part 1 !

i never made that up ,and it’s dissappeared

heres the closest thing i found
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speculum…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speculum%E2%80%A6

Speculum maius (greater Mirror) was a major encyclopedia of the Middle Ages, written by Vincent de Beauvais in the 13th century. It was a great compendium of all knowledge of the time. The work seems to have consisted of three parts: the Speculum Naturale, Speculum Doctrinale and Speculum Historiale. However, all the printed editions include a fourth part, the Speculum Morale, added in the 14th century and mainly compiled from Thomas Aquinas, Stephen de Bourbon, and a few other contemporary writers.[1][2]

anyway the idea of a hand held monolith with the secrets of the universe on it doesnt seem far fetched

just incase any knows what i am chatting about,like i say i didnt make this up ,it seemed to be the earliest form of a monolith used as a way to observe the stars,

but alas i can't find the source material ,it had some heritage with sheeba ,if i find it i will post

What about this: I sometimes wonder if we are not just living in a feedback loop... So in "LOOKER", the company 'Digital Matrix' is developing "mind control via computer animation", they are testing the technology in television adverts and that is the company's front, but it is hinted the real goal is to brainwash American voters when it comes to Elections. An offshoot of the technology is a light gun that kind of puts people in a daze and blinds them, and that's the most fun aspect of the film. Grabs below:

So I see today...

What is a puke ray?
https://www.andymatthewsphotography.com ... -puke-ray/

Government-funded researchers are building a flashlight that makes people puke on command. The LED Incapacitator uses a range-finder to measure the distance to a target’s eyes, Threat Level notes.

How does the vomit gun work?

According to the United States Department of Homeland Security, the weapon works: “By simultaneously overwhelming the subject both physiologically (temporarily blinding him) and psychophysically (disorienting him). A built-in range finder measures the distance to the nearest pair of eyeballs.

Is the sick stick a real thing?

Vomit Gun. If you have seen Minority Report or Kick-Ass 2, you will be familiar with the “sick stick”. In a brief description, the stick essentially causes anyone to throw up when they touch it. Believe it or not, a gun with the same premise has been invented with the intent to make the receiver vomit when shot at.

Can light be used as weapon?
Light is basically moving energy. A laser produces very intense energy that can travel over very long distances. That’s why a laser can become a weapon while the light from an incandescent bulb typically can’t. To do this, a laser has to produce light in a nonconventional way...

That grab is from this video, I think he's a bit of a sensationalist myself, so I'd need to see the receipts before I believe a fair bit of what he's suggesting. But I thought the above grab was interesting. From around 22:50 mins.

Supermodels to Be Replaced By Digital AI Creations

The Digi-models come with names like Joy, Nina, Noah and Theo

First, it came for art and college essays, now AI is set to take the place of supermodels by creating digital humans.

A German company has launched a system that sees state-of-the-art ‘digital humans’ pose for campaigns.

ColorDigital claims that their DMIx StudioAvatars have a ‘never seen before’ photorealistic quality.

This enables brands ‘to build up their own completely unique team of digital models to use in sales and marketing’.

The Digi-models – who come with names including Joy, Nina, Noah and Theo – can be customised and individualised to a brand’s preference.

In partnership with Verce, the studio that specialises in creating realistic virtual models, ‘it brings together a high-quality end-to-end virtual model workflow for fashion brands including a virtual 3D photo studio’.

The end-to-end digitalisation of workflows is set to have a major impact on the fashion industry, by reducing the need for prototypes and physical samples.

‘Factoring in travelling and the production of shoots, brands can save costs and time as well as reduce environmental impact,’ said ColorDigital.

The creators also added that digi-models would improve diversity and representation in the fashion industry...

YAWN...but remember this...

Just caught this, though it is apparently from June:

President Volodymyr Zelensky appears as hologram in Paris
https://www.wionews.com/world/to-seek-s ... ris-489027

Now, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has appeared in the form of hologram at a conference in Paris. The leader talked about 'Star Wars' and World War II while seeking aid from big tech firms on Thursday (June 16), media reports said. At the VivaTech trade show, Zelensky told the gathering that Ukraine is offering a unique chance to the technology firms to help rebuild the country as a complete digital democracy. The president seeks help on the terms of lend-lease. It is the way in which the US helped the Allies during World War II. In it, the aid was offered without payment on the understanding that the hardware would be returned.

While referring to the Russian forces as the bad guys in the ‘Star Wars’ franchise, Zelensky said, "It's unusual for presidents or heads of government to use a hologram to address people but this is not the only aspect of Star Wars that we are putting into practice. We will defeat the empire too."

The Ukraine’s government will also come up with the specifics of the plan to create a digital government at a conference in Switzerland in the near future, the leader said.

"No other country in the world will offer you such a chance to use the most advanced technologies at a state level. It's an experiment and a digital revolution, and the modernisation of the current system all at the same time," Zelensky said.

This from August, so he's apparently on the touring circuit with his hard-sell, in the footsteps of Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Professor Brian Cox, Elon Musk, etc, etc...

Western Audience Gushes Over Zelensky’s Latest Hologram Appearance

It is not science fiction that artificial intelligence is as smart as humans.

Ha, right.... Do you get the feeling the fake-alien-invasion is one step closer? Because what I think he's selling is showcased on Zelensky's usual plain green T-shirt.





I wasn't actually thinking about the "COME TO THE DARK SIDE" text, I've just noticed that now. I'd suggest that's to obfuscate what they are actually demonstrating. We cannot tell how good the 3D is, but what we can see is he has been taken out of this original background and apparently put in a box, with shadows that work as if he was in the box. His outline appears crisp and defined and he is wearing GREEN and BLUE, and I think that is the actual point of the T-shirt design.

To remove a background seamlessly you need to choose a single-colour screen, usually green or blue which then can be made invisible. This colour then becomes illegal to use in any part of the foreground. As both colours are seen on Zelensky's T-shirt we can surmise green-screen is not being used to produce the result, and we see as much in the first picture's detail. Zelensky's shadows appear to put him inside the box, to they must be being generated in real time. But actually, it might be the Zelensky we are seeing is in fact completely AI driven and not Zelensky at all.

[Unreal]

The creators also added that digi-models would improve diversity and representation in the fashion industry...

They can't help themselves but to slap on some leftist woke DEI agenda* of course,,,

Completely agree - the Elite always keep something hidden, why else talk about this subject openly? Its not as if they want to inform us about anything freely. This is staging, they are setting up their trick*.

* DEI - diversity, equity, and inclusion just like in Hollywood
* oh, and the "Alien Invasion" is not anything that will ever be rolled out, its just a placeholder tinfoil topic. We will be "invaded" way before, if not already, just as you @rachel propose hereover
