    RESEARCH REPORt 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Cover: Aurora borealis paintings by William Crowder, National Geographic (1947). The International Geophysical Year (1957–8) transformed research on the aurora, one of nature’s most elusive and intensely beautiful phenomena. Aurorae became the center of interest for the big science of powerful rockets, complex satellites and large group efforts to understand the magnetic and charged particle environment of the earth. The auroral visoplot displayed here provided guidance for recording observations in a standardized form, translating the sublime aesthetics of pictorial depictions of aurorae into the mechanical aesthetics of numbers and symbols. Most of the portait photographs were taken by Skúli Sigurdsson RESEARCH REPORT 2010—2012 MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR WISSENSCHAFTSGESCHICHTE Max Planck Institute for the History of Science Introduction The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG) is made up of three Departments, each administered by a Director, and several Independent Research Groups, each led for five years by an outstanding junior scholar. Since its foundation in 1994 the MPIWG has investigated fundamental questions of the history of knowl- edge from the Neolithic to the present. The focus has been on the history of the natu- ral sciences, but recent projects have also integrated the history of technology and the history of the human sciences into a more panoramic view of the history of knowl- edge. Of central interest is the emergence of basic categories of scientific thinking and practice as well as their transformation over time: examples include experiment, ob- servation, normalcy, space, evidence, biodiversity or force.

  • A HISTORY of NEW ZEALAND SCIENCE FICTION and FANTASY by Simon Litten and Sean Mcmullen
    FANTASTICAL WORLDS AND FUTURES AT THE WORLD'S EDGE: A HISTORY OF NEW ZEALAND SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY by Simon Litten and Sean McMullen CHAPTER 7: ARTISTS, COMICS, CRASH COURSES AND THE FUTURE There is a lot more to science fiction, fantasy and horror than novels, stories, films and television series. Comics, artists, musicians, podcasts, audio works, live plays, radio plays, games, re-enactment societies and non-fiction books all contribute to the overall picture, and all of the foregoing are produced in New Zealand. Each of these topics could fill a separate chapter, but deadlines have forced us to provide just a few examples of artists, comics and non-fiction books here. NEW ZEALAND ARTISTS Readers really do, more often than not, judge books by their covers, and New Zealand's artists have produced some very fine work, contributing to the success of many books. This artwork has been honoured in the Sir Julius Vogel Awards in the category of Best Professional Artwork. A selection of winners and their covers follow: Emma Weakley has won the Sir Julius Vogel Award award three times, for Newton’s Sleep (Random Static, 2008) in 2009, Regeneration: Best New Zealand Speculative Fiction (Random Static, 2013) in 2014, and At the Edge (Paper Road Press, 2016) in 2017. Frank Victoria’s cover for Mary Victoria’s Tymon's Flight (Harper Collins, 2010) won the award in 2011, and the following year won again with his cover for Mary Victoria’s Oracle's Fire (Harper Collins, 2011). Les Petersen did the cover for an Australian anthology by New Zealander Simon Petrie, Light Touch Paper, Stand Clear (Peggy Bright Books, 2012), winning him a Vogel in 2013.
