A few thoughts:

• Seeing the laser pointer in action was an emotional moment for me! Pointing at a physical object and having the screen react by “knowing” what video you want to watch is a  remarkable step forward. I want this now.

Imagine a book (like the one below, which is a real book we used for editing) showing all kinds of moments from a film, and being able to flip through this book and see the corresponding movies on a display screen. The tangibility of such an experience cannot be underestimated. The ability to navigate in cinema space (the screen) from reality (a book, printed pages) would forge fascinating connections between the ephemeral and the static. If we consider the screen/cinema to be a kind of dream space, then this interaction might be a kind of lucid dreaming.

• “Whenever you’re ready”: this is the gentleman’s way of saying “action!”
