In a new episode of De Nieuwe Wereld, Ad Verbrugge talks to philosopher Ger Groot about his contribution to the book Thinking about film. Based on the series Westworld, Groot investigates what happens when the boundary between man and machine fades. What does the attraction of violence, freedom and appearance say about our time? And what does consciousness in a world of artificial beings mean?
