Tech geeks and trend spotters like us love keeping an eye on Google, so we’re keeping a look out for “Google and the World Brain”, the Sundance nominated documentary by director Ben Lewis. In 1937 HG Wells predicted the creation of the “World Brain”, a giant global library that contained all human knowledge which would lead to a new form of higher intelligence. Seventy years later the realization of that dream was underway, as Google scanned millions and millions of books for its Google Books website. But over half those books were still in copyright, and authors across the world launched a campaign to stop them, climaxing in a New York courtroom in 2011. The film is about the dreams, dilemmas and dangers of the Internet, set in spectacular locations in China, USA, Europe and Latin America. Here’s a sneak peek.
