ONE-DAY RETREAT: SOULS AND CYBERPUNK: PLAYING GOD IN BLADERUNNER AND THE MATRIX (Apr 10, 2027)
Book now www.newnorcia.com.au
Dom Anthony Viswalingam, OSB
From the beginning, humankind has sought to become like God, on their own terms. The films of Bladerunner, Ghost in the Shell and The Matrix explore this drive to become creator in themes of cybernetics, simulation and AI. This kind of Babel-building causes us to question our reality, our humanity and our own souls. Do these laboratories unlock new fields of being, or forge new prisons?
One-day events all commence at 9:00am on Saturday, in the monastery guesthouse, and conclude at 5:00pm. Attendees may arrive earlier for a cup of coffee. Participants in one-day events may also arrange overnight accommodation through our guesthouse ([email protected]).
