MOVIES WITH MEANING: WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW!?http://www.reallivepeopleparty.com/singles-parties/event1165.htmlWHAT: MOVIES WITH MEANING SERIES: WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW!?
WHEN: Monday, August 6, 2007 at 6:30 PM
WHERE: Village Pourhouse: 64 Third Avenue at East 11th St
COST: $5.00 Pay at the Door W/RSVPWhat the Bleep Do We Know?! is art documentary, part story, part elaborate and inspiring visual effects and animations. It presents a view of the physical universe and human life within it, with purported connections to neuroscience and quantum physics.
In the fictional part, Amanda, a deaf photographer (played by Marlee Matlin) acts as the viewer's avatar as she experiences her life from startlingly new and different perspectives.
Some ideas discussed in the film are:
* The universe is best seen as constructed from thought (or ideas) rather than from substance
* What has long been considered "empty space" is anything but empty
* Our beliefs about who we are and what is real are not simply observations, but rather form ourselves and our realities
* Peptides manufactured in the brain can cause a bodily reaction to an emotion, resulting in a new perspective to old adages such as "think positively" and "be careful what you wish for."
In the documentary part of the film, a number of purported scientific experts in quantum physics, biology, medicine, psychiatry, and theology discuss the roots and meaning of Amanda's experiences. However, viewers are not told the credentials of the experts until the credits at the end of the film. The comments of the scientific experts converge on a single theme: "We all create our own reality." Authors arguing related viewpoints include Jane Roberts (the Seth books), Richard Bach (Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Illusions), the writings of Abraham-Hicks, Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, and David R. Hawkins. |
