Episode notes
2001: A Space Odyssey - Listener Feedback
- Tamler and David discuss listener feedback on their previous episode about 2001: A Space Odyssey.
- Listeners corrected their interpretations by referencing Arthur C. Clarke's novel, which answers questions left open in the film.
Multiple Interpretations of Art
- Artistic works based on a common story, like 2001 or Twin Peaks, can have multiple interpretations.
- These interpretations, like ancient Greek retellings of myths, may differ and fill in details uniquely.
Authorial Intent and Interpretation
- David believes even Kubrick's own beliefs about the film's meaning don't necessarily limit interpretation.
- Works of art can communicate things the artist might not even be consciously aware of.
