With 490 million 5G smart phones estimated to be sold this year alone, and a worldwide push from the trillion dollar telco industry to install 5G towers across every conceivable landscape, the film raises questions about our relentless quest for ‘bigger, better, faster’.
As we catapult towards an inevitable high-tech future, is there cause to pause?
“While current generations of wireless tech have already been proven to have harmful effects on humans and the environment, 5G is an untested technology that takes things to a whole new level,” We Are Not SAM spokeswoman Rinat Strahlhofer said.
“The Gaia Code alludes to the life-altering impacts of smart devices on every aspect of our life. These include effects on our health, well-being and privacy through digital surveillance and the Internet of Bodies, where human bodies are able to transmit information via the Internet.”
The Internet of Bodies is where humans are connected to a network through devices that are implanted within or connected to the body. Data is able to be exchanged and the devices remotely tracked and controlled.
Rinat said while technology was crucial to our daily lives and gave a form of ‘connection’ we would otherwise not have, there was an underbelly that shouldn’t be ignored.
“The film inspires people to reflect deeply on the costs that come with technology – and to use it in a way that is meaningful to them,” she said.
“There is also a very specific action people can take, which is to boycott 5G phones. This action puts the power back into our hands and allows us to use our purchasing power to disable a world of artificiality and surveillance.”
Importantly, the 3-minute film offers a message of hope and empowerment at a time of enormous flux in the world. A time when momentum is building against the destructive forces of corporate greed and government overreach.
Rinat said this message was reinforced by The Gaia Code’s exquisitely beautiful locations, with the film inspired, produced and entirely shot in Byron Bay.
“We’ve called it The Gaia Code in deep reverence to Gaia, or Mother Earth, who gives us everything,” she said. “As taught by the Original Custodians of the land, when we have a deep connection with nature, and with ourselves as natural beings, our lives become richer. We become part of the sacred web of all Life.”
