From Backpacker to Sci-Fi Mastermind
Alex Garland's Journey from The Beach to Ex Machina
Alex Garland first made a name for himself with his thrilling backpacker novel, The Beach, which was later adapted into a popular film. However, after the novel's success, Garland withdrew from the limelight, making a return years later as the writer behind 28 Days Later and Dredd.
Garland's directorial debut, Ex Machina, introduced us to the uncanny world of artificial intelligence, earning critical acclaim and cementing Garland's reputation as a visionary filmmaker.
In Ex Machina, Garland explores the ethical implications of creating sentient machines, delving into the complexities of consciousness, empathy, and human-machine relationships.
