  • Every Thursday we're traveling through a DUST wormhole to bring back some our channel's classics.
    Stuck right in the middle of chaos with no explanation. But no explanation is needed. Liam Murphy's No-A communicates everything we need to know about its main characters through wordless action. The end result is an empathetic and poignant short fueled by a robot’s love for its creator and its willingness to pay the ultimate sacrifice to save this girl from harm.
    'No-A' by Liam Murphy
    More About No-A:
    An extraordinary display of compelling characters who grow on you in monumental strides in the span of a few minutes. No-A is a fragmented story filled with uncertainty, but there is one thing you can be sure of: you will finish this short wanting more.

    Yes. I agree to wish this story was longer or introducing a series. Yet the protagonist was utterly inhuman - a congnizant mechanoid - and perfectly inhuman again - a bull ape, gorilla comes to mind. They and chipanzees, bonobos are our closet cousin great apes.
    All the emotions we feel, they do and equally as strongly... I see the story as if an trusted elder man, a warrior was given of parents to protect a young woman, a teen daughter and nothing would stop him from doing so.
    But he wasn't a man at all. He had the mind of an educated and trained Silverback gorilla built on a robotic scale that would deeply disturb quite a few transformers.
    I have watched the short tale a few times now and am about to watch it again and grin at the final charge.
    Well done, people.
    Peace out; live long and prosper - later.

    Three things that bug me in this video, which unfortunately is a common trope in sci-fi videos: 1) the 'head' of a robot doesn't have to have the 'brain' -- why not in the center of the torso? 2) to make it feel 'week', it has human-like movements after the 'event', and 3) why do all the guns do no damage to him except the one shot? Contrived events and actions to elicit human emotion. Kind of like the uncanny valley. close, but the inconsistencies make problems like these stand out even more.
