The Fri-Sci Summer Movie Series is more than just spaceships and dystopian societies, although those fan favorites do make appearances. Every film in the series “asks more questions than it answers — ‘what if?’, ‘can you imagine?’ and ‘what would you do?’” This time around, the film being screened is “2001: A Space Odyssey,” an “enigmatic adaptation of a short story by revered sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke.” It explores man’s relation to artificial intelligence when a spaceship’s computer system “begins to display increasingly strange behavior, leading up to a tense showdown between man and machine that results in a mind-bending trek through space and time.”
