An Open Letter to the members of STARFLEET: On January 11th 2005, we were contacted by Chris Halliday of Argent Games, regarding possible plagiarism in articles published in the STARFLEETCommuniqué during 2002 and 2003. Immediately, we began an internal investigation researching the claims and studying the original material by Mr. Halliday and the Communiqué articles in question. Regretfully, it became painfully clear that Mr. Halliday's claims were true and that materials were taken from an in-development RPG game called Time War, which is being published this year. Substantial portions of a series of columns on Time Travel & Temporal Investigations in Communiqué issues 111, 112, 113, 114, 117, and 118 were originally written by Chris Halliday, and not by the author on the byline, Robert (Robb) Jackson. The articles in question were accepted and published in the Communiqué in good faith since the editors of the Communiqué at the time believed it to be original material. However, as the Communiqué is the official publication of STARFLEET, we are responsible for it's content. As a reminder to all of STARFLEET, only original materials are acceptable for publication in the Communiqué. If you use another's work in your article, you must cite references and give proper credit to the original author. STARFLEET will not tolerate plagiarism. On behalf of STARFLEET, the International Star Trek Fan Association, Inc., I want to apologize to Mr. Halliday and Argent Games for this incident. I also want to thank him for his cooperation in this matter. He has been very cooperative with our requests and has been wonderful in his dealings with us. I have read his materials, and they are well documented, interesting, and thought provoking. If you are a fan of RPG's and Time Travel, you may want to check out Time War - Adventures in Eternity when it is published. You can find out more information at the Argent Games website - http://www.argentgames.com/ .

    A History of the Future David J. Staley

    History and Theory,Theme Issue 41 (December 2002), 72-89 ? Wesleyan University 2002 ISSN: 0018-2656 A HISTORYOF THE FUTURE DAVIDJ. STALEY ABSTRACT Does history have to be only about the past? "History"refers to both a subject matterand a thoughtprocess. That thoughtprocess involves raising questions, marshallingevidence, discerningpatterns in the evidence, writing narratives,and critiquingthe narrativeswrit- ten by others. Whatever subject matter they study, all historians employ the thought process of historicalthinking. What if historianswere to extend the process of historicalthinking into the subjectmat- ter domain of the future?Historians would breach one of our profession's most rigid dis- ciplinarybarriers. Very few historiansventure predictions about the future, and those who do are viewed with skepticism by the profession at large. On methodological grounds, most historiansreject as either impractical,quixotic, hubristic,or dangerousany effort to examine the past as a way to make predictionsabout the future. However, where at one time thinking about the future did mean making a scientifical- ly-based prediction,futurists today arejust as likely to think in terms of scenarios.Where a predictionis a definitive statementabout what will be, scenarios are heuristicnarratives that explore alternativeplausibilities of what might be. Scenario writers, like historians, understandthat surprise,contingency, and deviations from the trend line are the rule, not the exception; among scenario writers, context matters.The thought process of the sce- nario method shares many features with historical thinking. With only minimal intellec- tual adjustment,then, most professionally trainedhistorians possess the necessary skills to write methodologicallyrigorous "historiesof the future." History, according to Kevin Reilly, is both a noun and a verb.' By this Reilly means that "history" refers to both a subject matter-a body of knowledge-and a thought process, a disciplined habit of mind.

    Fugitive Telemetry (Murderbot Diaries 06) Martha Wells No, I didn’t kill the dead human. If I had, I wouldn’t dump the body in the station mall. When Murderbot discovers a dead body on Preservation Station, it knows it is going to have to assist station security to determine who the body is (was), how they were killed (that should be relatively straightforward, at least), and why (because apparently that matters to a lot of people – who knew?) Yes, the unthinkable is about to happen: Murderbot must voluntarily speak to humans! Again! This sixth entry into the series is a standalone novella, set before All Systems Red. Love, love, love it! Cannot recommend highly enough! (If you want one, but we don’t have any in the shop – please, do order one, to stake your claim on the stock we will receive!) If you haven’t read the preceding books in Wells’ fab series – then start with All Systems Red (HC, $29.99) (see #2). Science fiction novella | HC | $29.99 All Systems Red (Murderbot Diaries 01) Martha Wells In a corporate-dominated, spacefaring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. Exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids, for their own safety. But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn’t a primary concern. On a distant planet, a team of scientists are conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ’droid – a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module, and refers to itself (though, never out loud) as ‘Murderbot’.

    The Other in Science Fiction As a Problem for Social Theory 1

    doi: 10.17323/1728-192x-2020-4-61-81 The Other in Science Fiction as a Problem for Social Theory 1 Vladimir Bystrov Doctor of Philosophical Sciences, Professor, Saint Petersburg University Address: Universitetskaya Nabereznaya, 7/9, Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation 199034 E-mail: [email protected] Vladimir Kamnev Doctor of Philosophical Sciences, Professor, Saint Petersburg University Address: Universitetskaya Nabereznaya, 7/9, Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation 199034 E-mail: [email protected] The paper discusses science fiction literature in its relation to some aspects of the socio- anthropological problem, such as the representation of the Other. Given the diversity of sci-fi genres, a researcher always deals either with the direct representation of the Other (a crea- ture different from an existing human being), or with its indirect, mediated form when the Other, in the original sense of this term, is revealed to the reader or viewer through the optics of some Other World. The article describes two modes of representing the Other by sci-fi literature, conventionally designated as scientist and anti-anthropic. Thescientist representa- tion constructs exclusively-rational premises for the relationship with the Other. Edmund Husserl’s concept of truth, which is the same for humans, non-humans, angels, and gods, can be considered as its historical and philosophical correlate. The anti-anthropic representa- tion, which is more attractive to sci-fi authors, has its origins in the experience of the “dis- enchantment” of the world characteristic of modern man, especially in the tragic feeling of incommensurability of a finite human existence and the infinity of the cosmic abysses.

(May 2012) Dana Nicole Sayre, B.A.; B.A, Fairmont State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Judith Hamera Through a combination of personal interviews and participant-observation in three field sites – the Tim Miller workshop and performance of October 2010 and the student organizations Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies – I argue that manifestations of utopian desire and performance circulate within and among marginalized groups on the Texas A&M University campus, undermining the heteronormative and monolithic utopia the university attempts to present. I participated in each night of rehearsal during the Tim Miller workshop, as well as the creation and performance of my own solo autobiographical monologue as a part of the ensemble. My participant-observation in Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies was concurrent, consisting of attendance at both weekly organizational meetings and outside events sponsored by the organizations over two years.

  • Emerging Legal and Policy Trends in Recent Robot Science Fiction

    Emerging Legal and Policy Trends in Recent Robot Science Fiction

    Emerging Legal and Policy Trends in Recent Robot Science Fiction Robin R. Murphy Computer Science and Engineering Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77845 [email protected] Introduction This paper examines popular print science fiction for the past five years (2013-2018) in which robots were essential to the fictional narrative and the plot depended on a legal or policy issue related to robots. It follows in the footsteps of other works which have examined legal and policy trends in science fiction [1] and graphic novels [2], but this paper is specific to robots. An analysis of five books and one novella identified four concerns about robots emerging in the public consciousness: enabling false identities through telepresence, granting robot rights, outlawing artificial intelligence for robots, and ineffectual or missing product liability. Methodolology for Selecting the Candidate Print Fiction While robotics is a popular topic in print science fiction, fictional treatments do not necessarily touch on legal or policy issues. Out of 44 candidate works, only six involved legal or policy issues. Candidates for consideration were identified in two ways. One, the nominees for the 2013-2018 Hugo and Nebulas awards were examined for works dealing with robots. The other was a query of science fiction robot best sellers at Amazon. A candidate work of fiction had to contain at least one robot that served either a character or contributed to the plot such that the robot could not be removed without changing the story. For example, in Raven Stratagem, robots did not appear to be more than background props throughout the book but suddenly proved pivotal to the ending of the novel.
