Cory McAbee has been sharing his singular space cowboy vision to Sundance Film Festival audiences since 1995 when his band The Billy Nayer Show performed live along with a collection of short films. He attended the 1998 Screenwriters Lab to workshop the screenplay for his first feature The American Astronaut, which went on to premiere at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival. In 2004, he presented his serialized film Stingray Sam, and most recently, he attended the 2018 festival with Deep Astronomy and the Romantic Sciences, a live science fiction lecture featuring original music, animation, artwork, and live performance.
