RELEASE NOTES

摘要

IAN WINTERS is not a replicant. Our chief photographer knows this because, to capture Ryan Gosling for our cover story on the new Blade Runner (page 76), he built a DIY Voight-Kampff machine-that Philip K. Dick invention for identifying corporate creations who are more human than human-along with all the other sets and props. He also produced the images for "Black Market" (page 106), about the heist of thousands of pounds of polysilicon, the substance used to make pretty much every microchip on the planet. Winters couldn't have done it without associate photo editor Ruby Goldberg, who called half a dozen companies in three countries to get the material for him to shoot. Eventually she struck, uh, polysilicon, when a couple of them agreed to send her 5 pounds of it.
