Description de l'ouvrage :
Widely acclaimed upon its release as a future classic, Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner 2049 is visually stunning, philosophically profound, and a provocative extension of the story in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner. Containing specially commissioned chapters by a roster of international contributors, this fascinating collection explores philosophical questions that abound in Blade Runner 2049, including:

What distinguishes the authentically "human" person?
How might natality condition one’s experience of being-in-the-world?
How might shared memories feature in the constitution of personal identities?
What happens when created beings transcend the limits intended in their design?

What (if anything) is it like to be a hologram?

Can artificial beings participate in genuinely romantic relationships?

How might developing artificial economics impact our behaviour as prosumers?
What are the implications of techno-human enhancement in an era of surveillance capitalism?

Including a foreword by Denis Villeneuve, Blade Runner 2049: A Philosophical Exploration is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, film studies, philosophy of mind, psychology, gender studies, and conceptual issues in cognitive science and artificial intelligence.

Revue de Presse :
"To think that Blade Runner 2049 sparked such conversations and stimulated such reflections about humanity and artificial intelligence sincerely deeply moves me... That is one of the reasons I love the very existence of this book." - Denis Villeneuve, Director of Blade Runner 2049
