We're headed to ICCCon! To celebrate we're exploring the ties between the two most landmark motion pictures of all time. This week we're focusing on not only 2001's influence on George Lucas in conceiving STAR WARS, but also the influence on other key members of the crew soon to be legends themselves, and the crossover of legendary artists who worked on both! Plus: Marcia is full of beans, Mayhew's magnetic meat jaws, and how to launch an astromech in a large condom. Featuring the voices of George Lucas, Mark Hamill, Steven Spielberg, Ben Burtt, Dennis Muren, Phil Tippett, Dan O'Bannon, Caleb Deschanel, Ron Howard, John Dykstra, Joe Johnston, Lorne Peterson, Brian Johnson, Stuart Freeborn, Colin Arthur, Peter Mayhew, and Neil Scanlan.

All rise! Court's in session as we the judges and you the jury examine all the evidence. The definitions of guilt, insanity, and conscience both to people and PCs. Is HAL technically a person anyway? And does premeditated murder imply the same morality for computers or is it just another move on the chessboard? Let us know your verdict @spacepodyssey on Twitter, @spacepodyssey on Facebook, or spacepodyssey2001@gmail.com Plus: heuristic learning,  farting filepaths, and digital tongues.

What's HAL's side of the story? Evidence that Clarke may be revealing more than we previously imagined about what's under the circuitry of the defendant and whether he has malevolent or melancholy machinations. How does personhood change the measure of the men, the machine, and the consequences aboard Discovery? Also, it's time to zoom in on the space pods themselves and the revolutionary sound design of these scenes. Plus: Pythagoras, pod puppets, and prohibited palace pooting.

Put on your deerstalker and join our investigation of an almost perfect murder. Help us examine the means, motive, and opportunity of our 9000 series suspect, HAL.  In space...no one can hear you. Period. Especially flailing away into infinity. Or rocketing yourself through an exploding door. Kids, never hold your breath in an airlock. Plus: grand theft starship, snail feet, and ham-and-cheese gummies!
