for all the events that took place since 1945, and there were a huge number of them, the theme of the great patriotic war is somewhat erased from memory, but you took up this, why? well, for me it doesn’t get erased , for me it exists emotionally, i remember my deceased grandfather, my whole family fought, my grandmother and my little mother crossed the line...

bomber and light night 7 588 fighter aircraft, bombers , you chose 586, this is a regiment of fighter pilots who worked on machines yak-1b, then there was the yak-3, yak-7, but why was this fighter regiment taken as the basis for the plot of the film, well, you know, well, firstly, that’s how the script turned out, and secondly, about night witches, we had there were beautiful pictures , we all know it, we’ve seen everything, thirdly, the yak itself is a legendary plane, absolutely, and the plane is also the hero of the film in its own way, so in connection with the plane, in my opinion, there are insufficiently told stories about ...

air battles, where there is physics, where there is gravity, but also how to make a film, as it were emotional, so that he, so that he would not let the viewer go, and at the same time it was not empty, only when we found the history, when we found the technology, then we agreed very slowly, we started working, we spent a very long time restoring, building airplanes, because we don’t have any living yak-1b, we have one...

which with alterations at that time, now , in my opinion, another one was restored and we built 12b, because we recreated the airfields, recreated this regiment very close to the original, as far as it was possible and that it was like a whole, whole life that we lived, i was completely dumbfounded by your preparatory period, how long it lasted, well, quite a long time, i think, probably years... to look for planes flying on the wing, we began to come up with filming technology already in detail , we began to design how we would build these aircraft models, we looked at a lot of russian regions about where we would film, we were looking for actors for a long time, because in addition to being in the film, it’s wonderful.

white and skin of some incredible beauty, it seems to me that this is , well, not very, not very, not very good, and then we looked all over the country for artists for small roles, for one of the main roles, we found the wonderful christina in omsk , that’s generally why there was a long, long, long preparation, i mean the kiss. i was

completely dumbfounded by what you built, i'm not convinced that anything like this exists anywhere in the world, this screen is the size of a four-story building, as far as i can.

fit with what's happening on the screen. yes, it was a whole, whole thing, we had a lot of attempts, we filmed real ones from real planes, naturally, in different regions of russia in different weather conditions, from different cameras, in order to get the feeling of flying on the screen, we had emergency landings , icing, well, actually , all the joys, i can imagine how you felt during these evolutions, but... in this sense, the director helped, there was no need to invent anything, fantasize, make any efforts that were not required in in general, it really helped when your wing is on fire, everything is screwed up, oil in your face

, also smoke, there are fasts, yes, of course, but there were moments when i think those who are here didn’t really like you...

the contents of this boxes, my grandfather vananerbe was engaged exclusively in archaeology, this is really the same place, a cache in a cache, there are secrets that have no statute of limitations, german, from monday after

the program time, old barrel cognac, a product of the stellar group. we are now with you, dear friends, present on the podcast, everyone wants fly, which is on channel one, and we are talking about the film air, which fortunately i saw, and you will see on january 18, i assure you, this film is a must watch, and i envy in advance those who have not seen it yet, because you will get that mood, those feelings that i have already experienced, today we have here the director of the film alexey.

that you didn’t have a spark, so that someone would lift you into the air, oh, you know, it might not work very well, we considered the option of flying to exactly, yes, yes , it was artists, it was artists to imprison, we studied, we studied the experience and came to the conclusion that there are more disadvantages in production, why?

will burst, and at the same time i understand that i can lower this structure , the artist can rest, and we can repeat the same story again, probably the most difficult thing was to make sure that all these air battles were photorealistic, so that there was no feeling of computer graphics , we have a lot, including footage of airplanes. real ones, and excuse me, are we generally against computer graphics? you know, and i spent

it on the history of aerial filming, there several years of life and analysis, i came to an amazing result , which is that graphics are more expensive than filming high-quality aircraft models, than filming real airplanes, and so on, and not only that... former air force pilots, this is all, all this was done in yak 52, at maximum

speed, so to speak, in line with the behavior of the pilots of the great patriotic war, then in their place, one on one, we inserted 3d models of airplanes, so that there would be no feeling when the plane was walking on rails, but it’s not walking on rails, yes, as if it exists, exists turbulently. there is , as it were, inertia, there is a tangible weight of the plane, it is almost impossible to catch, but the problem with many films, including, unfortunately, ours, when computer graphics are made, is that latently we do not feel the weight, and accordingly, so we went, went like this in this way, this is a very multi-component picture, plus, when we have bombings, we... launched the yak 52, which were then slightly modified by computer, but when

filming is going on and the artists are, conditionally, in the trench or somewhere else, above you low a real plane is passing by, yeah, then you behave more authentically, because firstly, it’s more scary, just scary, and secondly, you don’t need to depict this, here we’ll let the painted plane not... here he, he comes at you, he rushes at you, at the same time something explodes, and this gives some kind of authenticity, and if this is an amazing thing that i discovered for myself, simply from the point of view of economics, production, launch real planes multiple cheaper than painting the same thing, just multiple cheaper, i understand what it is profession, but nevertheless, you would never regret taking it up. i’m now asking about this block that you rolled, well, i had moments, and not

that i was afraid, but you know, sometimes you come to filming, you were flooded there or something else, and sometimes you think that here... they end when you push it, you see, we chose the most idiotically difficult way to shoot this picture, we recreated all the costumes. again lena okopnaya, costume designer too, she, we first created threads, then yarn, from this we made yarn, fabric, from this fabric using those technologies, we restored tunics one by one, we sewed flight suits, but about the same weight as they were,

because they were quite heavy and not very satisfying, but what wasn't this in the selection? you know, minimally, unfortunately, this is the legacy of the wonderful soviet cinema, for example, the film torpedo bombers, yes, nothing of this remains, because in troubled times it all disappeared somewhere, somewhere, so some few remained, or there was a new one left, this new one was visible, and this one suggested, well, of course, the new one. so when all this, well, it was very very difficult at times, then of course then of course i cursed everything, of course everything, you know, i immediately want to shoot a picture somewhere you know in the warmth , so to speak, not without without leaving without going far on the one hand on the other hand the challenge is big in this of course was such a good drive

to try to make a film when you. no, you know, we often watch our modern war films, and you you quietly swear when, in what’s conventionally called at the end of forty-one, they appear in fashionable or american pilots, who even then, well, of course, a jacket, which did not exist then, or airplanes of the wrong modification, or i watched, recently watched one film where about some fictitious blue soviet secret plane, or when you...

accordingly, if there was an option to choose the most, not necessarily the most expensive, but nevertheless, choose the most monstrously difficult decision, then we choose, but well, which leads to this, so that a person does not feel false, we chose this monstrously difficult decision, at some moments, of course, we repented of it, we thought, oh well, why do we need to build so many models, if only we had drawn it with a computer, no, we didn’t, for various reasons, we built the models correctly , they did everything right. we are friends in rostov the great, and even if you have never been to this city, you were still here, i want to feel like a hero of a film, when they are making a film, it is unclear why they are going there, real russian winter fun on reels dogs, and two teams, you sit down

, we’ll have a race, victory will be ours, what is this exhibit for, it’s definitely not a spear? this is not a spear, a fish, since, unfortunately , it is not there, the ice is also not suitable, it turns out that there is no such ice cream anywhere else in the world, yes, people come specifically to try herring ice cream, let me try it in 15 minutes, let’s see how you, let's go, the premiere, tomorrow on the first, we are now on the first channel in the podcast, everyone wants to fly, in the analysis zone... flights, we have the director of the film air, alexey german, me the performer of one of the main roles, elena lyadova, and i, the presenter, leonid yakubovich, the preparatory period was about 3 years, yes, you told us somewhere, no, well, we, well, how to count, from the date, as if, as we

began to work before the script, during the script, i think that, if... to recreate yakta, the first plane was made with an error, it was just shorter, ilena dug in the artist of the picture, she saw it, here's what's next we... specially unfolded it so that it would not be visible, placed it on the farthest edge airfield, which means that then we put

aircraft production on stream, then we spent a very long time fine-tuning them, technological holes, hatches, texture, airflow, scratches on the propeller, and it was as if endless. endless, endless story , so to speak, the screws were there from that time, so that the screws that sometimes fastened something were not visible, and to this day i see two or three screws in the picture that i missed, i understand that no one sees them, i understand that they are small, little samarisks, only i know that they are there, but i every time i reproach myself that here i am...

two words, you mentioned in passing, an amazing artist on the film, this is lena okopnaya, in fact, both the costume designer and the production designer, well, they really did, they did a colossal job in all details, in everything, starting from the creation of a reliable trench, and a reliable costume , and... and in all its dirt of what really happened, and the world, it was difficult for us to lie there; it was simple, you know,

it’s amazing how much in me the topic you touched on hurts, well, not only do i crazy, i'm in love with the sky once and for all , that's for sure, but when we were filming a film about the girls of the 588th regiment, however, this one... the plan of the legendary aircraft designer nikolai polikarpov was not intended for combat operations. an open cabin without armored backs, with a low-power engine. what did they call him, the corn maker, the whatnot? who would have thought that he would be indispensable in battle, and his disadvantages would turn into an advantage. i flew on it for three days. as you know, the maximum number of sorties per shift they had was about 18, about twenty. i was completely exhausted on the sixth , in the summer, open cockpit, oncoming jet from the engine, from the propeller, i was freezing, and at -25 and

the absence of any communication at all and a walkie-talkie about mechanics about technology, you can’t do anything with bare hands in gloves with the door, that means it’s to fly in, jump out of the cabin, take a sip of tea and... then there’s air, in the transition period, when there’s no air, when there’s nothing to sit on, well, i was so stunned by my feelings that i realized that they were all heroes of the soviet union, every single one of them in general, that’s why when i looked at the bass, it’s all like that in me it shook me, you, in such a great way, conveyed this feeling of human existence in a non-human way... conditions that i just had a lump in my throat, thank you very much, because i believed it, but you also took on incredible work, you started filming in the winter, lena won’t let you put it together, we wanted to make

an ice airfield, since the film is connected with the siege of leningrad and healthy life as well, but we built a sleigh, which means we were prepared for the road of life, developed heating points, which means it would be huge. decoration work, developed the airfield and this year the ice didn’t stop at all, we built a nashrom on the shore then and monstrous storms began in winter, all our planes were blown away, and we built a runway, it was flooded, not only do we not only have yaks, but we also have in the film, in addition to the shmits, there are two, there are pieces of us... 2 there is also an i16 and a huge three-ton model - that means ila-2 , its wings were torn off and the guys were lying.

which i saw, footage of the filming period, when you shouted very loudly: stop, it’s filmed, the shift is over, joyful, cheerful faces frostbitten people wandering through a snowy field. colleagues , thank you all for today, the shooting is over, it was epic, friends, lunch is announced, and at the same time their

eyes are shining, from this i concluded that the relationships in the group were probably wonderful, everyone just wanted to star in this film , but it seems to me that everyone somehow partially understood that they were some kind of link... paint in some very important matter and despite the cold, some possibly uncomfortable conditions, well, as for actors, it was important to picture took place, it was important for everyone, for us, what is ahead, well, now, so to speak, it seems that we should start with the first channel according to

konstantinovi’s wonderful idea. watch this film, because god knows , it’s worth it, once again, we are on the first that i am filled with the desire to wish all the channel in the podcast everyone wants to fly with the director of the film air alexei german with one of the main performers elena lyadova. bratsa, thank you very much for coming, secondly, and firstly, for

that you gave me the opportunity. spend a very good hour and a half there, i watched it with pleasure, well , maybe because for me, i repeat once again, like for you, the sore subject is war, plus everything that happens to with the air in general, i enjoyed it and i sincerely tell you guys, thank you, i, here it sits here, i’ll probably watch it again. all the best, thank you very much for being with us on the podcast, everyone wants to fly, i hope you get exactly the same pleasure, like me, from watching the film air, although any recommendations in all likelihood are not worth a penny lumonny, but nevertheless i recommend that you go to the cinema.

hello, this is the schrödinger's cat podcast, and i am its host, grigory tarasevich, editor-in-chief of a popular science magazine, which is also called schrödinger's cat. and our guest today is andrey sebrand, one of the first activists.

i hammered this word into him, i really hammered it everywhere in the press, from computer screens, television screens, from mobile phone screens, yes, in in this sense, yes, is it necessary to explain to a wide audience now what neuroscience is and how it works? it seems to me that no , oddly enough, because we all use those same mobile phones and to begin to explain now, what is called from adam, there is such a big science, quantum solid state physics, thanks to it semiconductors arose, thanks to the advent of semiconductors , the fact that previously, with the help of large electric lamps, radio lamps, it was possible to assemble electronics that fit there in cabinets, it turned out to be possible to miniaturize

to the level of a device in a pocket and at the same time there are transistors there, unlike lamps, there can be billions, well, who really cares about this, people don’t yet have radio waves, they still don’t have radio waves.

intelligence, it’s about the fact that we taught computers, there are smart speakers, it doesn’t matter, we taught some devices around us to solve those tasks that traditionally belonged to human intellectual activity, but for some reason, while everyone is talking about tasks, these are intellectual tasks, there, starting with, i don’t know, chess, chess, writing an essay, it’s all an intellectual activity, taking over the world is not an intellectual activity, it’s goal setting? all these things are not about some kind of intellectual actions, they are about other characteristics of the human personality,

this shift that is sometimes made, well, for example, in fiction, and this is correct, the terminator is not just an intellectual, very powerful mechanical a robot, he’s also a very unique personality, so he wants to take revenge on someone, who...

in another city altogether, a miracle, a miracle, at that time, of course, there were a lot of forecasts, and how many forecasts were at the turn of the century, here is the time of 2000, because all of humanity , here we are... there were also a lot of forecasts, and people drew

what life would look like in the 20th century, they drew from there from the 1800s of some nineties, but a lot is being fulfilled, they recently threw it at me, remember, there was such a foday bulgarin from the time of pushkin, but much less talented, less popular, he had such fantastic works of the early 19th century, where he also described the machine. and they foresaw correctly and indeed the industrial revolution led to

the fact that the industrialization of the household happened, only it happened differently, that’s the whole story about the fact that there will be electricity, that electricity will not just be a steam stove in every house, that there is a steam engine it’s still heating up, but no, it will be centralized energy generation, it will be power plants, it will be wires, this was not even remotely foreseen, but maybe this happen that 5 years will pass. and people would say, well, it’s not russia, well, yes, it can do something, well, it does essays well, well, it translates text, but what else can it do, then it will occupy its niche , something else will appear, completely new, no less amazing, well, i think yes, maybe not in five, maybe in a few more years, we saw this again with the example of those very smartphones that we now have in every pocket, because when they just started appear, there really was such a... aura, here is the control panel

reality, i can do anything, i can call my grandmother from the forest, i can watch my favorite tv show while sitting on the train, and it was perceived as a miracle, but it’s normal that we stop perceiving all these things as a miracle literally after a few years, and a miracle is something new that we haven’t thought about before, so i think that if it’s in the twenty- third year, don’t spread the word.

as a writer, in all previous years i hired someone

to transcribe interviews; as of this year, this profession is closed to me because the neural network does it no worse, i’m worse for you, i’ll give you an example, just this year, and like many previous years, i took part in the preparation of a large international conference, which is mainly online, which is important, still important, in this year for the first time, unlike... all previous years, we did not have an expense line for synchronized speakers, we had, as in previous years, international speakers, but now we could afford... we

will probably also remain unemployed, and you know, who is left unemployed, it's true not so that there is such a very official labor market, but all over the world there is a huge, i do n’t know, gray shadow market, this is the writing of various essays to order, coursework, well, listen, well, we still know that there is a certain number of people, which they are all over the world, who study just to get this piece of paper from them, it’s true.
