One of my earlier posts quoted the Terry Bisson “Sentient Meat” short story – well, it turns out that there’s a film short based on the story!
Great exchange:
And the ones who have been aboard our vessels, the ones you have probed? You’re sure they won’t remember?
They’ll be considered crackpots if they do. We went into their heads and smoothed out their meat so that we’re just a dream to them.
A dream to meat! How strangely appropriate, that we should be meat’s dream.
I liked the feeling of surrealism surrounding something we take for granted every day: we are thinking, loving, dreaming meat.
And yes, that IS Ben Baily of Cash Cab.
