Over subsequent decades, scientists and social scientists increasingly applied the language of interconnection to such diverse collective forms as computer webs, terrorist networks, economic systems, and disease ecologies.

  • 118 Reviews of Books Does, the Book Is a Pleasure. He Roots It in Feminist, Race, and Sf Scholarship, Just As He Grounds Butler
    118 Reviews of Books does, the book is a pleasure. He roots it in feminist, race, and sf scholarship, just as he grounds Butler in black American women’s writing traditions and sf tropes. Moreover, he stays focused on his literary argument and doesn’t get lost in the weeds of debates about agency, humanism, and the problematic legacy of the Enlightenment. Ultimately, Of Bodies, Communities, and Voices is indispensable for any Butler scholar, primarily because of the ways he connects so many of her work’s central concerns without reducing its complexity or variety. It will function more as a source of research than pedagogy, except maybe in upper-level classes centered on Butler. I recommend it not only to scholars of Butler but sf in general, especially in terms of afrofuturism, posthumanism, or any of Bast’s focal points (agency, bodies, community, voice). Biopunk SF in Liquid Modernity. Lars Schmeink. Biopunk Dystopias: Genetic Engineering, Society and Science Fiction. Liverpool: Liverpool University Press, 2016. 288 pp. ISBN 978-1-78-138376-6. £75 hc. Reviewed by D. Harlan Wilson Biopunk is among the more recent sf subgenres to emerge from the virtual citadel of 1980s cyberpunk. There have been others—most prominently steampunk, but also splatterpunk, nanopunk, dieselpunk, bugpunk, even elfpunk and monkpunk—but biopunk narratives are perhaps the first truly authentic descendant of the cyberpunks, featuring gritty dystopian settings, beat characters, corporate terrorism, techno-pathology, and body invasion. Instead of hacking computers, however, biopunks hack DNA and operate in worlds where the processes and products of genetic engineering are brought to bear by various forms of mad scientism.

At left is the Atrium section where the dealer bourse and science panels were. At right is the Tower section where most of the literary seminars were. The two are connected at their third stories by an enclosed pedestrian crossing over Bonaventure Drive.

It took place at the usual venue of the Delta South hotel on Southland Drive SE and straddling overtop Bonaventure Drive. The membership was capped at 750 plus volunteers, so the convention was like a village rather than the mob scenes of Calgary Comic Expo (90,000 paid attendees) or the Calgary anime convention Otafest (8,000 paid). As with my past reports, I’ll sort events out by theme rather than chronology.

  • 7 It Was Already Five Past Nine, but the Shop Was Dark. Sebastian Was Late. 'Damn You, Seb,' Cait Said Aloud, Unlocking
    One It was already five past nine, but the shop was dark. Sebastian was late. ‘Damn you, Seb,’ Cait said aloud, unlocking the doors and propping them open with the stone Snugglepot and Cuddlepie statues she’d bought from a Gumtree seller some years back. They were stupidly heavy and sadly battered – Cuddlepie’s nose had been bashed off somewhere along the line – but Cait was still delighted with the purchase. ‘I know they’re not exactly beating the doors down on a Saturday, but I can’t afford to be missing out on passing trade while he’s getting his act together,’ she told Snugglepot. She flicked on the lights and started hauling out the first of the two front trolleys. Made by the same carpenter who had made the rest of the shop’s fittings, each had four wheeled legs supporting a large, shallow wooden tray at waist height. Cait had filled them with rows of books standing face-forward, leaning back like slanted dominoes, for display outside. She had hand-picked every title. Impulse buys, little joke and gift books: 1001 songs to listen to in love, another 1001 for breakups, 101 countries to visit when you finally manage to get off your arse and stop wasting money on impulse buys. Et cetera. But also novels and nonfiction, teasers to hint at the vast range of stock inside. The trolley’s weight pulled it swiftly down the ramp, Cait struggling to hang on to it and not let it career across the road to the cafe opposite.

  • Feminist Post Cyberpunk Fiction : an Emerging Genre in Literary Writing
    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Feminist Post Cyberpunk Fiction : An Emerging Genre in Literary Writing Anjali Jagadeesh Former Guest Lecturer NSS College Pandalam Abstract The popularity of science fiction in the 1970s and 1980s proved there was a huge interest in reading this genre. These novels were largely read and appreciated off the women too. The authors of this science fiction novels provides a fascinating experience to readers by interestingly weaving their stories in a speculative setting of scientific premises. As against the suppression from masculine society, science fiction has a particular affinity with feminism. The continuation of this affinity can be viewed in the subgenres too. Feminist post cyberpunk fiction is also one such sub genre which has enriched the speculative fiction. In recent times considerable progress has been attained in literature in the field of feminist post cyberpunk fiction. But as they have been sufficiently explored , an attempt has been made in the present paper to sketch out the evolution of feminist post cyberpunk fiction from the science fiction. This paper attempts to throw light on the Various focal points in feminist post cyberpunk fiction and provides examples for each type. Key Words Science fiction, feminism, cyberpunk fiction, post cyberpunk fiction etc. Article The general tendency of the human nature, especially, the masculine world is to suppress women as the second sex. But by introducing new concepts and approaches, feminism, a collection of movements and ideologies, aims at defining , establishing and defending equal political, economic and social rights for women and also helping women to find a recognized place in the society which was once denied.

Notre problème de base est que nous ne maîtrisons absolument pas l’augmentation constante des volumes globaux d’extraction et de consomma- tion de ressources. Vivre en permanence dans les limites d’une seule planète n’est pas un choix; c’est une obli- gation. Depuis trop longtemps, toute notre vision du «progrès» se fonde sur le déni des limites de nos écosystèmes et de notre planète. Ensemble, la permaculture et la circularité offrent la seule voie de progrès véritable vers une économie réellement durable – une économie que j’appelle «permacirculaire». Ni la Suisse, ni l’Europe, ni le monde «développé» n’ont le mono- pole du sens de l’existence.
