"I’ve been thinking about religion and science, and how too often we get caught up in pitting one against the other, as if they are natural enemies, or as if one is totally false and the other is a virtuous savior. Really that’s all bollocks." Image: Science fish by Steve Rainwater

Hi. B.T. Lowry here, fantasy author and videographer. Welcome to the first story developed from the scene-of-the-week series. The scene which got the most votes was the short film, “Ghosts from 500 Years ago,” so I went right ahead and developed it further. I added more footage and brought in a ghost-king from ancient India and some deep thoughts. If the first part seems familiar, jes' keep watching. I've uploaded just the audio here, but to get the full effect, one must watch the video.. Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DaED8WPl5Y My special thanks go out to Erothyme, with Biomigrant and Emma Staarbird. Their excellent music is featured in the latter part of the film, the song "Pines and Leaves," from the album, "Sound in the Living Current.” The whole album--and all their work, really--is excellent. You can find out more about them at these sites: http://www.erothyme.com http://facebook.com/biomigrant http://biomigrant.bandcamp.com http://soundcloud.com/biomigrant Also, thanks to unnamed temple mu

We're taking a break from the scene-of-the-week series to take do a little retrospection.
