Experience the Ultimate Mind-Trip When Science Meets Cinema with “MindGamers: One Thousand Minds Connected Live” in U.S. Movie Theaters on March 28 Only

Fathom Events Teams with Terra Mater Film Studios for a Special
One-Night, One-of-a-Kind Event That Will Connect Moviegoing Audiences
Live Across the Country

DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#MindGamersMovie–“MindGamers” asks the question: What if you could instantly share
the mind and skills of Stephen Hawking, Beyoncé, Lebron James or anyone
and everyone on the planet? Based on contemporary science, “MindGamers:
One Thousand Minds Connected Live
will re-imagine the
modern moviegoing experience with the very first “action film for the
mind.” This one-of-a-kind event will be shown in U.S. cinemas for one
night on Tuesday, March 28, 2017 at 9:00 p.m. ET/ 8:00 p.m. CT/ 7:00
p.m. MT/ 6:00 p.m. PT, with playback at 7:00 p.m. local time for AK/HI,
from Fathom Events and Terra Mater Film Studios.

While this live event takes place, 1,000 people from the movie theater
audience will participate in the experiment by wearing a cognition
headband. These headbands will enable scientists to capture the
cognition state of the participants simultaneously via cloud technology
and collect data in real time. The result will be a world-first image of
a mass-mind state (the likes and scale of which has never been
attempted), which could drive our research into the nature of human
cognition for years to come.

This special, live cinema event will open with introductory talks from Tim
Mullen
and Mikey Siegel, both leaders in the fields of
technology, neuroscience and the collective consciousness. The
feature “MindGamers,” billed as “the first action film for the mind”
will follow. The event will conclude with a live Q&A and
revealing of the first image of a mass-connected mind.

Tickets for “MindGamers: One Thousand Minds Connected Live” can
be purchased online beginning Friday, February 3, 2017, by visiting www.FathomEvents.com
or at participating theater box offices. Fans throughout the U.S. will
be able to enjoy the event in select movie theaters. For a complete list
of theater locations visit the Fathom Events website
(theaters and participants are subject to change).

Headlined by Sam Neill (“Jurassic Park”) and Tom Payne (The
Walking Dead
), the feature film “MindGamers” is innovative
grounded science fiction fare (Black Mirror, The OA and
Westworld
). It follows a group of brilliant young
students who create a wireless neural network with the potential to link
every mind on earth via a quantum computer. Capable of transferring
motor-skills from one brain to another, they have brought into existence
the first shareware for human motor-skills. They freely spread this
technology, believing it to be a first step towards a new equality and
intellectual freedom. But they soon discover that they themselves are
part of a much greater and more sinister experiment, as dark forces
emerge that threaten to subvert this network into a means of
mass-control.

“This is truly a new experience for cinema audiences,” Fathom Events CEO
John Rubey said. “To present live data from a collective conscious of
moviegoers will be a fascinating and incredible feat, and we are
thrilled to help bring this content to the big screen!”

“As a studio, we have taken on the challenge to create cinema that
pushes new boundaries and goes beyond the ordinary,” Walter Koehler, CEO
of Terra Mater, commented. “’MindGamers’ is the creative engine to a
world-first moment in neuroscience history, and we are proud to partner
with Fathom and bring this to our audience live.”
