The Manufactured Science series explores the boundary between realistic and imaginative portrayals of science in film. While many films hinge on science for their success, they often stretch the possibilities far beyond reality. And yet the imaginative nature of science in the movies can often serve as inspiration to future scientific endeavors. In Manufactured Science, dozens of fragments from turn-of-the century films are re-arranged to create a new narrative on weather and biological disasters that reflects how science is conveyed in the mainstream. The short film is both an ode to this era of Hollywood movies and to popular scientific ideologies of the time.
