Electric Dreams

 

My wife & I recently finished the series "Electric Dreams" based on the works of sci-fi author Philip K. Dick.

It was really enjoyable and interesting, and some of the episodes were really mind-bending. There were few where we jut looked at each other afterward & were like, "WTF???"

Some of the topics covered are virtual reality • the security state • space travel • life extension •  the nature of consciousness • aliens • corporate power • & artificial intelligence - just to name a few.

 

I would highly recommend this series to anyone who like science fiction, especially the work of Philip K. Dick. Some of the themes were exciting and inspiring, some were disturbing & downright frightening. The possibilities for both in our future are endless.

The stories were generally thought-provoking and engaging, and I hope they come out with another season at some point.
