Short Synopsis: The Mindflip web series introduces the characters of a feature length science fiction/horror film of the same name, while it is in development. The webisodes and interviews explore their backstories and their world. SCIENCE SPOTLIGHT features interviews with Dr. Laurence Fine, an ethically challenged Neurobiologist, and his arch-rival, Dr. Maurice Howard. WEBISODE 1 introduces Dr. Fine’s cut and paste approach to brute force cybernetics. In WEBISODE 2, Dr. Fine and his assistant Rex discuss impediments to their work over tea, with inescapable metaphors for literature, language and reality. WEBISODE 3 finds Dr Fine feeling scorned by the scientific community. To vindicate his theories, he attempts to swap the minds of a dog and a cat. The results are not as expected. WEBISODES 4 & 5 (in Post-production) reveal the dark consequences of his experiment, and the lightning bolt at the end of the tunnel.
