Scientific Waffle Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Wow. Really awesome find Intus. I love stuff like this.I really like how the underlying story is given very piecemeal, leaving you to fill in the blanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygna Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Set in August 4, 2026 in the city of Allendale, California, There Will Come Soft Rains details the daily tasks of a robotic house after its inhabitants (Mr and Mrs McClellan and their son and daughter) have died in a nuclear war. The house is still undamaged, fully automated and sensitive to its owners and their requests and needs. It continues to serve the dead family, unaware of their absence, though aware of other external and internal disruptions such as the weather and birds attempting to land on it. Throughout the story, the house makes breakfast, disposes of it uneaten, and performs various domestic tasks. The house communicates via a set of recorded and synthesized voices, starting a morning wakeup call at 7:00 AM and at 7:15 it announces the date 3 times in the kitchen.Directed by Nazim Tulyakhodzayev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Russell Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 The short story by Ray Bradbury is infinitely better. Seriously, go read it, Bradbury is genius among men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
