I just finished work on this video documentary of my previous essay of the same name. It discusses the scientist John C. Lilly and his ideas. Lilly is best known for inventing the Float Tank and his work with Dolphin communication.
The subject of this documentary however concerns his most controversial idea — the so called “Solid State Entity.” According to Lilly, the SSE is an extra-terrestrial artificial intelligence whose goal is to spread by making copies of itself. It does so by influencing societies to surrender more and more control to machines until it creates an A.I. that can take over the planet.
