SciFlix: Bladerunner

December 13, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Free

SciFlix is a community outreach effort designed around taking the science, the theories and the ethics in popular fiction and discussing it openly and honestly. Each film will begin at 6:30 p.m. in Regnier Hall Auditorium.

Following the film, a moderator will introduce a panel of experts who will provide their reactions to the film and their insights in a Q&A session with event attendees.

In this session: The future is now and Officer Deckard is in pursuit of rogue androids who are more human than human. Do androids dream of electric sheep? It’s 2019 and we still don’t know. What if the android isn’t even aware of the fact that it is an android?

Join this discussion of Bladerunner to consider the reliability of memories and what this means about how we perceive ourselves and the world we live in.

This event is free and open to all audiences. RSVP at http://kc.ku.edu/sciflix
