I wonder if what's streaking across the sky toward us is something beyond truth. In a post-truth A.I. world where art can be deployed and manufactured by virtually anybody to deceive, sell, contrive and co-opt any idea or aesthetic -- I wonder if what we so desire in our heart of hearts, is something truer than true -- realer than real. We want to KNOW that what we're seeing or hearing is 'The Real Thing.'
So if something like that is streaking toward us that is beyond truth and is unco-optable, unstealable, impossible to twist and deceive (which would definitely make us non-dependent and artist-first filmmakers) the question would be, 'How does an indie filmmaker get there?'
I get lost in what you say. I got some financing for my film, feel sure it can get it made. $1.3 m budget about. It's a big thing for me. I give up equity to do it. What you say, at the end, about a whole new way... i got ideas on it, but I'm afraid to talk with the industry people and lose my green light. I'm not brave enough. I can see what you're saying, somewhat, but I worked so hard to get here. So the money will own it. The distribution, once it's made, maybe I can offer a new idea as to where "we" want it to go. I feel a bit stuck in the deal, but I'll take the green light even if I can see something more beautiful n' better up ahead.

Would LOVE to collaborate with you some day, Ted. :)
