Writer-director Peter Bogdanovich wrote She’s Funny That Way for John Ritter a decade ago. Here’s how it was reborn.
Peter Bogdanovich’s last theatrical feature was The Cat’s Meow, which came out in 2001, but he’s quick to tell you that he hasn’t been on any kind of hiatus—self-imposed or otherwise—these past 14 years.
The show’s co-creators embraced the freedom of not being tied to the comic.
Drawing on the comic book series of the same name, The Walking Dead has told five seasons worth of scary, compelling stories. However Robert Kirkman, the mastermind behind the comic and the television series, was convinced that there was even more story to be told about the zombie apocalypse, and he wanted to create another outlet on television to do so. Seeking a creative partner who shared his vision, Kirkman invited Dave Erickson on board the project as co-creator and showrunner of Fear the Walking Dead. Erickson was up for the challenge and impressed that Kirkman wanted to press the concept further.

Jim Henson had a vision of digital puppetry in the 1980s that is finally coming to fruition.
When you sit your kids down in front of Netflix to watch Word Party, an animated series debuting in 2017, the last thing they’re going be thinking about is the intricacies of how it was made. And that’s good: That means that the team of puppeteers, artists, and producers behind the scenes are doing their jobs. In fact, even the most perceptive of grown-ups wouldn’t guess that many of the characters are actually digital puppets controlled by real live people—or just how dramatically this unique approach to animation has changed in recent years.
Learning for the sake of learning sounds nice but doesn’t pay.

A new exhibition by Richard Vijgen reveals the invisible architecture of radio waves, all around us.
The invisible world around us pulses with radio waves, an electromagnetic tide that washes over everything. If you could see it, everything around us would ripple with information, like dropping a tab of acid after watching The Matrix.
