Hi all ! And thanks to all who already replied and offered suggestions !

Here are some more details : it's a message we send to artists and production companies whose work we want to include in our film. It gives a non-exhaustive list of ideas for images and scenes in our film.

NANO-VISION is a 26 minute TV documentary, part of a special evening on nanotechnology, which will be aired on French-German cultural TV channel Arte .

NANO-VISION deals with the predictive and science-fiction aspects of Nanotechnology. It will be illustrated mainly with excerpts of computer graphics films, because we feel they are currently the best media for futuristic or visionary images.

These films will not necessarily deal explicitly with nanotechnology, but we find that, in the future, nanotechnology might permit and actualize certain visions presently created by computer artists and science-fiction illustrators.

For example :
- Visions of future cities and megalopolis, with extremely high buildings
and structures that seem suspended in air
- Underwater cities and undersea artificial environments

• Space architecture, artificial planets, inhabitable domes and bubbles
  - « Terra-forming » and modification of planets or asteroids
  
• Architectures with an « organic » outlook, buildings or environments that seem to grow from the soil
  - « Morphing Architectures » - buildings and environments that change and
  transform their shapes
• Morphing and self-changing furniture, clothes, objects...
• Objects and buildings decorated with moving images
• Future flying transportation vehicles, on earth or in space
• Human body modified or self-changing
• Simulations of internal exploration of the human body
• Artificial humanoid beings (androids, gynoids)
• Artificial & synthetic beings with non-human forms
• And of course anything on the « nano » scale - molecule and atom simulations, nano-machines, nano-robots, etc
