Builds a networked forum that becomes Edge/Reality Club and an annual world question archive of thousands of hours of interviews and filmed conversations. Innovates filming practices for talks using a dozen cameras and a five-panel split-screen format. Shoots a secret sci‑fi feature with Christopher Doyle and Ai Weiwei during Beijing smog measured at pollution index 800, completed but tightly restricted.
