A Girl And A Gun

This is a thoughtful meditation on a deadly serious issue.

Google And The World Brain
1 x 89’ or 1 x 60’, 2013, HD
In 2002, Google began an ambitious project to scan every book in existence. The giant global library would be available to the public, but the eventual purpose was to create a higher form of intelligence, as predicted by HG Wells in his essay, World Brain. Since more than half the books scanned were in copyright, authors launched a campaign to stop Google. But is this kind of artificial intelligence an inevitable part of our future?
