What if we merged cybernetic brains in our militarized, techno-capitalist hellscape? 😳
Βρισκόμαστε στο 2029, τα όρια μεταξύ της εικονικής πραγματικότητας και του υπαρκτού κόσμου σιγά σιγά χάνονται. Η τεχνητή νοημοσύνη (Artificial Intelligence) γίνεται όλο και πιο περίτεχνη και πραγματική καθώς εξελίσσεται συνεχώς. Οι περισσότεροι άνθρωποι ήδη έχουν λειτουργικά προσαρμοσμένα στον εγκέφαλο τους, επιτρέποντας τους να επικοινωνούν με τους υπολογιστές και να μαθαίνουν από αυτούς. Τους κάνει όμως και ευάλωτους στην εκμετάλλευση. Η ψυχή ενός ανθρώπου είναι κοινώς γνωστή ως “Ghost” σε αυτή τη δημιουργία του Shirow. Χάκερς ικανοί να εισβάλουν στην ψυχή ή ghost ενός ανθρώπου είναι οι πιο ικανοί και οι πιο επικίνδυνοι και αντιμετωπίζονται σκληρά αν συλληφθούν από το σύστημα.

This cyberpunk classic was a huge influence on both The Matrix (1999) and The Fifth Element (1997), whilst in itself owing no small debt to Blade Runner (1982). Ghost in the Shell is an ode to technology, identity, collective vs. individual consciousness and boobs. Hardly surprising that it blew my mind when I was sixteen.
I shamefully admit that I don’t fully understand what was going on in this, it’s philosophy concerning the relationship between our soul, or ghost if you will, and our bodies (the shell of course), being conveyed through imagery and monologue, were a bit too mind-numbing for me. On surface level though, this film is gorgeous, and proud of itself too. Halfway through the story the film even took a five minute detour to show us its Blade Runner-esque cityscape. I find it interesting that the film seems to be extremely fascinated with the human body and keeps forcing us to study it. Also noticable is the way Major Kusanagi, to be played by Scarlett Johansson in the American remake, completely disregards the well-being of her body and sees them as simply tools like a wrench or a screwdriver, (tearing her own limbs off, being naked almost all the time etc.), as if she’s in a whole new, higher platform of existence unimaginable by us mere humans.Visually, Ghost in the Shell is on par with Evangelion and Akira, but you probably already know that. The climax looks like it's straight out of Bergman's Persona, and just like Bergman's film, multiple viewings are required.
