Fiction, 14 min., dir. PIERRE ZANDROWICZ, France, Okio Studio&Arte, 3D

In early 2005, David Hanson, an American robotics, is developing its first android human. His name is Phil and it is simply the copy of the famous science fiction author Philip K. Dick. In a few weeks Phil became famous on the Web and in the author’s fan circles. It is presented in several conferences around the world. In late 2005, the head of the android disappeared during a flight America West Airlines between Dallas and Las Vegas. Through the memories of the android and those of the author, the film offers an interpretation of Phil’s life.

“I, Philip” is a work, which immediately grabs your attention and sets you in the right place of the story. No wonder it was screened all over the world. However, I would say that the best way to watch it would be with ARTE 360 app for GearVR as it would have the best resolution available.

All of us, VR360 content producers, have to appreciate the technique and quality of this work, which sets some kind of a level that should not be decreased. This work shows, how “new technology” has to be show
