I did talk to two guys while at a restaurant in Westwood[In LA , near UCLA,
it's the core of Hollywood]. I explained to them AR and it storyline, ideas
and the Hollywood movie Dark City simularities to some of it and it's
differences[i.e. things I think they did wrong in that movie that made it a
bomb in the box office]. They listened intently, and one of them remarked to
me (as they smiled to each other) was that "ideas can't be copyrighted".
Matrix came out a few years later, I very much doubt they were the two
brothers who came up with Matrix, but it made me wonder after Matrix came
out.
Technically the idea of being deceived into thinking one's environment is
one thing, when it is actually another has been expressed in Science Fiction
for decades before I used that core concept. Those books by great Science
Fiction authors probably is where I got my kernel of an idea.
