We’ve solved the technology.’ – James Cameron

”The Secret Agent’ remains the most brilliant novelistic study of terrorism as viewed from the blood-spattered outside.

‘One of the reasons why I think virtual reality, as a narrative format, is never going to go beyond the short-form immersion space is because the bedrock of visual storytelling is the reverse angle.

‘The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.’ – Marcel Proust
