  • Abstract
    The Sloan Foundation and the Museum of the Moving Image have teamed up to showcase the work of several moviemakers who have intelligently incorporated science and technology into their productions. With the goal of reaching a far wider audience, they maintain a Web site that focuses on science in film. Called Sloan Cinematheque, it is intended for users who have broadband Internet connections, hosts short movies, trailers for full-length movies, interviews, and articles on related topics. The site not just opens the door to substantive dialogue between the worlds of science, technology, and film, but also for making the fruits of that dialogue easily accessible.
