IllusionTV Syd Mead Interview
The web site for the channel IllusionTV has posted an interview with Syd Mead, where selected questions that viewers submitted, were asked.
As you might expect, some of the questions covered TRON. Syd answered them, and provided some details about his involvement in the film that I don't think have been mentioned anywhere else before. Particularly, how he went about designing the TRON electronic world.
On a side note, the documentary on Syd called Visual Futurist: The Art & Life of Syd Mead by Director Joaquin Montalvan is now available on sale in Japan, so Japanese fans of TRON and Syd's other works can now purchase the DVD in their country.
For fans in North America and Europe, the DVD can be purchased directly from Syd Mead's web site.
You can read my review of the DVD in this previous article.
