Programs include the launch of a new Augmented Reality project by Nancy Baker Cahill, who recently participated in the Desert X biennial, a performance from Jennifer Moon, who explores revolutionary liberation with humor and candor, and a screening by Julie Weitz, whose "My Golem" character fights the patriarchy with campy semitic schtick.

Snow Golem, a simple guy who spends his time collecting pears and acorns, meets a small Fire Wolf pup and, though the pair are literally fire and water, forms a tender bond with the creature, eventually helping the wolf make its way back to its pack at the risk of being melted.

Peter and Bobby Farrelly: The sibling directors are helming a suicide comedy called "The Now," starring Dave Franco, Bill Murray, Daryl Hannah and O'Shea Jackson, Jr. Jon Favreau: His company Golem Creations is executive producing "Micro Mayhem," a series devoted to stop-motion animated toy car chases, along with Seth Green's company, Stoopid Buddy Stoodios.

You'd think that if someone could solve the locomotion problem, it'd be the designer who's had so much to do with the way players locomote through games today, but I've played Golem, and while it may be a fine game when it's released, I don't think that this is how we'll play VR games.

When a reactionary she-golem like Phyllis Schlafly hymns the old days of all-white, Americans-only baseball, she's not really talking about baseball at all—she's talking about a world in which people like Phyllis Schlafly had a bigger share of everything, and what looked at the time like the exclusive rights to the future.

Like her Chicago Imagist cohort (Gladys Nilsson, Jim Nutt, Roger Brown, Barbara Rossi, Karl Wirsum, and Ed Paschke), Murray never sanctified her surface with flatness or opticality, but instead adulterated it into a theater of saucy grotesques — a space she would eventually blow up and reconfigure into a character in itself, a golem molded from the painting's ground.

If Dougie really was "manufactured" — like a golem or a robot or something — then his identity as a normal guy and family man is similarly manufactured, presumably so that he could escape notice (and also, hopefully, so that he could be married to a woman played by Naomi Watts, whose presence in a Lynch project is always welcome).

There are the unstoppable mops of Disney's Fantasia (borrowed from the 18th century German poem "The Sorcerer's Apprentice"), the golem of Jewish folklore, and even the contemporary field of AI safety research has the fable of the Paperclip Maximizer: the clever but dumb AI that's told to make paperclips but ends up consuming all of the world's resources to do so.

In Huma Bhabha's spare, striking installation on the roof of the Met—a pair of monumental figures, one prostrate, either in prayer or in fear, and the other a battle-scarred, five-faced warrior-golem—she similarly flips the script on conventions of beauty, while injecting figurative traditions (Eastern and Western, ancient and modern) with a dose of pulp science fiction.

The best thing about dropping Thor into this jarring new world is that it gives Waititi the freedom to fill it with his signature humor by cramming in a host of new characters, including the fantastic Caesar Flickerman-inspired Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum), the hard-drinking mystery enigma that is Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), and a dry rock golem named Korg (Waititi).

And this is just one of the wild plot devices "Be the Penny" cooks up, with others including Penny possessing a golem to try to communicate with his friends and getting into a fight with an actual ghost, in hopes of disrupting the ghost's routine just enough that he can get it to say his name (thus alerting his friends to his presence).

These are not exceptionally discerning minds, of course, but even if they remain stuck on describing the shape of what the candidates do instead of addressing what they propose, they surely can see the difference between the bloated marzipan golem who currently lords over a lawless archipelago of concentration camps for immigrants and the most reliably left-wing figure in Congress over the last three decades.

But it's easy to suspend your disbelief in sheer enjoyment at Pavone's use of language, not to mention a James Bond-worthy itinerary that takes the otherwise ink-stained wretch from Brooklyn to Paris by way of Dublin, a Russian billionaire's yacht and a remote village in Iceland, as he evades a variety of secret-service types, enforcers and that even more frightening contemporary golem, the megalomaniac businessman.

Working with Epic Games, the studio behind the Unreal Engine (aka the thing that powers Fortnite), along with Bluff at ILM and cinematographer Greig Fraser, who had done a lot of work shooting LED screens on Rogue One, and other tech companies like video card maker Nvidia, Favreau and his team at Golem Creations developed a new virtual production platform that allows filmmakers to generate digital backdrops in real time, right in front of the camera.

A violin cradling a naked woman beneath a tree growing out of its curves leads to Headley's "The Orange Tree," a story about an 11th-century female golem with a stringed instrument in her belly who resists her creator's abusive programming; Kiernan's "Objects in the Mirror" — a story of doubleness and doppelgängers partially written as a screenplay set in a therapist's office — is preceded by an image of a stylized head containing a person cringing from the eyepiece of a telescope, as if afraid to be seen.

The job, which he winds up taking, throws Shadow into the middle of a battle, an oncoming battle, between all of the old gods, all of the things that people who have come to America over the years have brought with them and abandoned, whether it's leprechauns, or the Golem, or things that people have believed in, come to America, as all of the people who are in America are the descendants of people who came here, or are people who came here, and also the new gods.
