LO AND BEHOLD, REVERIES OF THE CONNECTED WORLD What does it mean to be human in a world driven by machines? In his provocative new film, Werner Herzog navigates the intricate maze of the all-knowing Internet to explore technology’s societal impact. With musings from the guardians of our electronic world — from the scientific pioneers who spawned the Internet in 1969 to influential futurists with big ideas about reality — Herzog ponders whether machines feel or dream, and if the Internet’s vision will one day surpass our own. — Vicki Warren
