Someone should give James Burke a call! James Cameron --> Director and co-writer of the Terminator. Terminator ----------> Scientific specialization begat SkyNet. Due mainly to work of character Miles Dyson. Specialization -----> Modus operandi of Antz, now in theatres. Antz -------------------> Animated by Pacific Data Images, Palo Alto. Palo Alto ------------> Stanford University community and home to many evolutionary collaborations. Stanford -------------> Location of SLAC, Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, continuation of 'accelerated' scientific specialization. Los Alamos ---------> The place where the largest specialization effort in history took place; the creation of the atomic bomb. Due mainly to the work of J. R. Oppenheimer. Atomic Bomb --------> Satarized at the height of the cold war by Dr. Strangelove, directed by Stanley Kubrik. Imortalized by Slim Pickens..... Yahoooooooo... Stanley Kubrik --------> Director of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Another doomsday message of machine conciousness. Kubrik is also critically acclaimed for the very twisted cult flick, Clockwork Orange, written by James Joyce. Clockwork Orange ---> An ultra violent futuristic flick full of darkness. Strange Days ----------> A similar futuristic venue where the drug is not Ritalin laced milk, but a digital tap into the cerebral cortex. Written and produced by James Cameron. An off the cuff loop, so don't be tooo critical. I did some preliminary searching to confirm that the Amiga was created in the Los Alamos or Palo Alto region and financed by Texas dentists ( I think this is true, but couldn't confirm it). Because.... I know that Cameron's first film was also financed by dentists.
