Date: 2013-05-20 01:14 pm (UTC)The show does a great job, in the early parts at least, of representing Skynet as having completely non-anthropic senses and ambitions and needs. It was fascinating to focus on that part of the show, to stop making it about people vs. Terminators and to look at the macro effects guiding the more globally significant narratives. And Koyaanisqatsi was perfect for that.
