The Matrix as Metaphysics

Has anyone seen or heard Dave Chalmers' lecture on "The Matrix as Metaphysics"? He worked as a philosophical consultant on the movies, and this talk is about the metaphysical views presented in them. He mentions Dr. Wolfram and CA, and uses them to describe the underlying nature of reality. It's quite a good lecture actually. Very light, though--I mean, it is philosophy, so don't expect much hard math or science. But it's a nice lark into NKS as metaphysics. It's posted here if you want to check it out.
