Legendary documentary filmmaker Ron Mann (Comic Book Confidential, Grass) appeared on our show this week to discuss his latest work "Know Your Mushrooms", a fascinating and entertaining journey into the world of fungi and its comprehensive role in the planet. The movie will be a tech first as in addition to the traditional DVD release, Know Your Mushrooms will also be the first feature film in North America to be released on a USB flash drive. And not just any USB drive, but a designer, 4GB Mimobot drive. Ron Mann gave me a preview of the Special Edition USB Box, which is available for pre-order and due to launch on September 1st. Here's my pics and details:
The Special Edition USB Box sells for $59.95 USD and it includes:
A Hand-Crafted Collectible Box
A nest of goodies including a booklet with an essay by Canadian film critic Jennie Punter
A dried, Alaskan Morel Mushroom, hand-picked by Larry Evans "The Indiana Jones of Mushrooms" (Its hollow)
and the film itself formatted for Mac, PC, Apple TV, and iPod, stored on a 4GB re-useable designer Mimobot Flash drive with a special mushroom design.
