Love it. Completely mad but instantly understandable.
Fun fact, the farming term for doing this used to be "broadcasting".

Künstliche Gravitation ist in der Science Fiction alltäglich. Doch wie realistisch sind diese Ansätze und wie könnte Schwerkraft im All wirklich funktionieren?

This is a bit of a mishmash, I don't really like it. If you're going to do a collage of ten different images, tie them together better?
Forgive me for being so judgemental, underpaid genre-magazine designer from 1951. I don't know your life.

I've always admired Italo Calvino, particularly his experimental novel, Invisible Cities. So much so that one of those cities inspired one of the stories in the new book!

Italo Calvino and His Invisible Cities » mark a. rayner

Please please please please have an astrophysicist or aerospace engineer review your book before publishing.
I'm reading an award-winning scifi book right now and while the writing is good and the author obviously tried to get the science details down, they also obviously didn't do much more than read wikipedia. It's getting painful to read.

"Close to the Wind" is the oldest story in my new collection, The Gates of Polished Horn. (2003) But I think it holds up pretty well.

Part of my continuing series on the "the story behind the story." This time: my ruminations on the second story in my new collection, "Serving Celebrity." What happens when we have lab-grown meat, and celebrities are on the menu?

So I've decided to serialize it, in four parts, starting today. If you're impatient to get the whole story, you can listen to my podcast of it, which I started in 2014, then stopped podcasting for four years (!) before finishing in 2018:"

Auto-publiée à l’automne 2024, il s’agit à l’origine d’un texte écrit il y a quelques années lorsque ses soeurs sont toutes les deux tombées enceintes. Dans ce court récit d’anticipation aux accents écologiques, l’autrice nous propose un univers riche et passionnant. Mais c’est aussi une histoire envoûtante et réconfortante qui parle de liens, de secrets de famille et rend hommage à la nature. C’est doux et chaleureux comme un plaid en hiver.
Et je vous en parle plus en détails sur le blog: https://yuyine.be/node/1299

It's just some long rambling article about #ScienceFiction and smartphones and it's more of just some weird obsession of mine for some reason.

Why didn’t (or did) Science Fiction Predict the Smartphone?
I’m not sure why I wrote this really. It’s been a kind of an occasional distraction for me. I’m not much of a technical person, so this is mostly written from a consumerist view, from someone who has read and watched some science fiction.Lydia Conwell (Psychic Drool)
"Reading her [Octavia E. Butler] words amidst the conservative onslaught against public libraries and education that deviates from the white, cisheteropatriarchal norm – as online platforms expected to take these spaces’ place are owned by people like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg – is an experience that’s, well, hard to put into words."

The LA Fires Aren't a Surprise If You Study History and Climate Change. So Now What?
This Teen Vogue Take connects the work of the late sci-fi writer Octavia E. Butler to the Los Angeles fires that have so far burned through 35,000 acres.Lex McMenamin (Teen Vogue)

Star Trek rejects collectivism while still avoiding lazy critiques. We are treated to the traumatic reintroduction of a Borg drone to humanity, who experiences debilitating withdrawal symptoms, missing desperately the collective’s voice in her head. It is a reminder of how authoritarianism can be dangerously attractive to the lonely, but also of how important it is to pay the price of personhood.
But Star Trek does not just offer a vision of a splendid future. Like any other practical manifesto, it offers a theory of change: of social evolution founded on solid historical materialist tenets."
