“I sincerely enjoyed watching the premier with book author Chris Carberry and filmmaker Sam Burbank and highly recommend it!” said Greg Olsen (3rd Private Civilian in Space Soyuz TMA-6/TMA-7), who attended the premiere. “The increased population of both non-orbital and orbital flyers will make this an ongoing experiment since many of them will have no crew duties and would be free to sample a drink or two. Alcohol in Space is an interesting movie that discusses not only the possibility of it having already been used in space, but also what the effects of weightlessness might be on people who would consume it.”
Alcohol in Space is the first of many films that will examine the expansion of human culture in space. CiSP will tell the stories of the next wave of astronauts, innovators, and dreamers pushing to expand human culture into space. While rockets and spaceships are essential to get there, a viable human civilization beyond Earth will require all human culture. This includes art, labor, literature, culinary arts, friendships, families, and of course a healthy dose of ‘sex, drugs, and rock and roll.’
Culture in Space Productions is currently in preproduction for The Music of Space (The Music of Space: Scoring the Cosmos in Film and Television: Carberry, Chris: 9781476688978: Amazon.com: Books), an exploration of the music and composers who have defined the sound of space in film and television – as well as the people who have performed music in ‘real’ space.
