[Planet](https://youtu.be/JGLoTjxd-Ss), Story's first sci-fi short is now live online! Howdy! My name is [Jason Carman](About). I'm a San Francisco-based filmmaker telling stories about science, progress, and innovation so I can make better [[sci-fi]] films — I founded [Story Company](http://www.story.inc/) for this purpose in 2024. I'm lucky to spend my time talking to the world's brightest and most ambitious minds who are working on humanity's greatest frontiers. I want to actively share my experiences, insights, links, resources here — this website will serve as **[[my field notes]]** along my journey. **Ways to connect** - [X](https://x.com/jasonjoyride), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/jasonjoyride/), [Story](https://www.story.inc/) - [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@jasoncarman99) - Subscribe [here](https://substack.com/@jasoncarman) for an email every time I publish a film. - [email protected] **Writing** [[The Most Important Tech Policy Since the Space Race]] | Saturday, November 22, 2025 [[Intel, You're Our Only Hope]] | Saturday, November 15, 2025 [[How Will We Save NASA?]] | Saturday, November 8, 2025 [[What's Really Going on in El Segundo?]] | Saturday, November 1, 2025 [[Where is Nanotech in 2025?]] | Saturday, October 25, 2025 [[Is American Science a thing?]] | Saturday, October 18, 2025 [[A $ per kg to Orbit for Longevity Research]] | Saturday, August 23, 2025 [[The Impact of A24 (on Hollywood)]] | Monday, August 4, 2025 <iframe src="https://writingtracker.replit.app/embed/48701169" width="100%" height="380" frameborder="0" style="border-radius: 8px;"></iframe>
