How's all in our crazy world?
I'm in NY until August 31 (then again, after =eijing, Sept. 25— Oct. 14). If you are in town, meet?
When convenient, I'd like you to =eet Peter Getzels, Closer To Truth producer/director (I've =orked with
Peter for 12 years); he would very much like to =eet you in person, describe the Radical Breakthroughs process in =etail,
get your feedback. He would come up from =C. We can always do Skype, of course, but Peter =ould appreciate to meet
in person early in the process. Breakthroughs =s a Big Project, big opportunity for impact. All are truly =xcited.
Below are highlights of =reakthroughs progress.
Attached is =atest CNN on trade war and below are links (caution: a few weeks =ld is ancient history in
Trump time).

• Research on each =f the 13 episodes is ongoing and we are moving towards creating = short list of the
top contributors per episode (with some =ontributors in multiple episodes).
• We are aggregating =he top contributors around 4 to 5 central locations, such as SF =ay Area, LA,
Chicago, Boston, New York, Santa Fe, London, =xford, and Cambridge for the main shoots.
• We are creating a =hort list of locations for the secondary shoot - i.e. the =ore observational shoots on
specific labs and =esearch facilities, such as the Music Lab at McGill, the =leep Lab at Harvard.
• We are planning a =ecce in the autumn to assess locations and meet some of the key =ontributors.
• We've brought on a =roduction manager / line producer as we develop detailed =esearch,
contributors, locations, budgets.
• Our team is =orking toward interviewing and hiring a top science-literate =ssociate producer /
dedicated research producer. We've =een coordinating with colleagues at HHMI (Howard Hughes Medical =ssociation)
as well as National Geographic for =taffing referrals, and now have a strong short list. This is = critical, long-term
position.
• We are assessing =raphics and animation companies and researching styles and graphic =deas that we
might use to communicate some of the more =omplex ideas.
• Our digital team =s researching a web extension for the www.closertotruth.com website, =eveloping
ideas for a dedicated site neighborhood for =Radical Breakthroughs." We are in discussions with several website =esign
companies, including the company that designed and =uilt our original CTT site, for ideas and bids on creating the
=xpanded site.
• By mid-October, we =xpect to begin to schedule the shoots.
