Rhee 2010 Abstract “Anthropomorphic Attachments” undertakes an examination of the human as a highly nebulous, fluid, multiple, and often contradictory concept, one that cannot be approached directly or in isolation, but only in its constitutive relationality with the world. Rather than trying to find a way outside of the dualism between human and not- human,

  • The Mutual Influence of Science Fiction and Innovation
    Nesta Working Paper No. 13/07 Better Made Up: The Mutual Influence of Science fiction and Innovation Caroline Bassett Ed Steinmueller George Voss Better Made Up: The Mutual Influence of Science fiction and Innovation Caroline Bassett Ed Steinmueller George Voss Reader in Digital Media, Professor of Information and Research Fellow, Faculty of Arts, Research Centre for Material Technology, SPRU, University University of Brighton, Visiting Digital Culture, School of of Communication Sussex Fellow at SPRU, University of Media, Film and Music, Sussex University of Sussex Nesta Working Paper 13/07 March 2013 www.nesta.org.uk/wp13-07 Abstract This report examines the relationship between SF and innovation, defined as one of mutual engagement and even co-constitution. It develops a framework for tracing the relationships between real world science and technology and innovation and science fiction/speculative fiction involving processes of transformation, central to which are questions of influence, persuasion, and desire. This is contrasted with the more commonplace assumption of direct linear transmission, SF providing the inventive seed for innovation– instances of which are the exception rather than the rule. The model of influence is developed through an investigation of the nature and evolution of genre, the various effects/appeals of different forms of expression, and the ways in which SF may be appropriated by its various audiences. This is undertaken (i) via an inter- disciplinary survey of work on SF, and a consideration the historical construction of genre and its on-going importance, (ii) through the development of a prototype database exploring transformational paths, and via more elaborated loops extracted from the database, and (iii) via experiments with the development of a web crawl tool, to understand at a different scale, using tools of digital humanities, how fictional ideas travel.

  • Download Spaceland: a Novel of the Fourth Dimension, Rudy
    Spaceland: A Novel of the Fourth Dimension, Rudy Rucker, Macmillan, 2003, 0765303671, 9780765303677, 304 pages. Joe Cube is a Silicon Valley hotshot--well, a would-be hotshot anyway--hoping that the 3-D TV project he's managing will lead to the big money IPO he's always dreamed of. On New Year's Eve, hoping to impress his wife, he sneaks home the prototype. It brings no new warmth to their cooling relationship, but it does attract someone else's attention.When Joe sees a set of lips talking to him (floating in midair) and feels the poke of a disembodied finger (inside him), it's not because of the champagne he's drunk. He has just met Momo, a woman from the All, a world of four spatial dimensions for whom our narrow world, which she calls Spaceland, is something like a rug, but one filled with motion and life. Momo has a business proposition for Joe, an offer she won't let him refuse. The upside potential becomes much clearer to him once she helps him grow a new eye (on a stalk) that can see in the fourth-dimensional directions, and he agrees. After that it's a wild ride through a million-dollar night in Las Vegas, a budding addiction to tasty purple 4-D food, a failing marriage, eye-popping excursions into the All, and encounters with Momo's foes, rubbery red critters who steal money, offer sage advice and sometimes messily explode. Joe is having the time of his life, until Momo's scheme turns out to have angles he couldn't have imagined.

  • Heuristic Futures: Reading the Digital Humanities Through Science Fiction
    Heuristic Futures: Reading the Digital Humanities through Science Fiction A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Joseph William Dargue 2015 B.A. (Hons.), Lancaster University, 2006 M.A., Royal Holloway, University of London, 2008 Committee Chair: Laura Micciche, Ph.D. Abstract This dissertation attempts to highlight the cultural relationship between the digital humanities and science fiction as fields of inquiry both engaged in the development of humanistic perspectives in increasingly global digital contexts. Through analysis of four American science fiction novels, the work is concerned with locating the genre’s pedagogical value as a media form that helps us adapt to the digital present and orient us toward a digital future. Each novel presents a different facet of digital humanities practices and/or discourses that, I argue, effectively re-evaluate the humanities (particularly traditional literary studies and pedagogy) as a set of hybrid disciplines that leverage digital technologies and the sciences. In Pat Cadigan’s Synners (1993), I explore issues of production, consumption, and collaboration, as well as the nature of embodied subjectivity, in a reality codified by the virtual. The chapters on Richard Powers’ Galatea 2.2 (1995) and Vernor Vinge’s Rainbows End (2006) are concerned with the passing of traditional humanities practices and the evolution of the institutions they are predicated on (such as the library and the composition classroom) in the wake of the digital turn.

  • Science Fiction: the Evolutionary Mythology of the Future Tom Lombardo, Ph.D
    Science Fiction: The Evolutionary Mythology of the Future Tom Lombardo, Ph.D. Center for Future Consciousness Abstract Science fiction generates holistic future consciousness. As futurist narrative, it resonates with the natural psychological disposition of giving meaning to life through stories. Science fiction encompasses the future of everything, and stimulates cosmic consciousness. Science fiction can be traced to multiple origins, one of which is ancient myth, with which, though grounded in the scientific vision of reality, it shares many features. Science fiction is mythic holistic future consciousness. Science fiction is evolutionary in that continually builds upon past ideas. The scientific theory of cosmic evolution provides the fundamental narrative framework for modern science fiction. As the evolutionary mythology of the future, science fiction facilitates the purposeful evolution of holistic future consciousness. Science Fiction as a Way of Life As a young boy growing up in the 1950s, I was drawn into the wondrous, strange, and at times frightening world of the future through the movies. At my neighborhood theatre, I watched—totally mesmerized—the classic science fiction movies, The War of the Worlds, When Worlds Collide, The Time Machine, and the best of the best, Forbidden Planet. I specifically remember, after watching The War of the Worlds, that the movie tremendously excited me; my total conscious being came alive in the cinematic experience. I was inspired to write a short story of aliens invading the Earth; I created illustrations for the story and designed costumes as well. I recruited some of my friends to play the different roles in the story. We were going to “live the future,” a future of space ships, aliens, and great battles to defend the earth.

  • Cyberpunk Mark Bould
    14 Cyberpunk Mark Bould Reflections on “Cyberpunk” The word “Cyberpunk” was coined by Bruce Bethke for the title of a story published in Amazing in 1983, but it came to prominence when Gardner Dozois appropriated it in his 1984 Washington Post article “SF in the Eighties” to describe fiction by William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Lewis Shiner, Pat Cadigan, and Greg Bear. The self- identified core Cyberpunk group consisted of Gibson, Sterling, Shiner, John Shirley, and Rudy Rucker. They were also dubbed the Movement, the “mirrorshades group” and the “outlaw technologists”; their fiction was sometimes called radical hard SF. As “Cyberpunk” circulated more widely following the success of Gibson’s debut novel Neuromancer (1984), it accreted fresh meanings and applications. To paraphrase Gibson’s famous dictum about human relationships with technology, the street (and the culture industries) found its own uses for “Cyberpunk.” It became an ever-expand- ing term for any slightly edgy artistic or cultural practice concerned with computers and/or the relationships between technology and the body, a synonym for “computer hacker,” the name of a role-playing game and even the title of a Billy Idol album. Although usually considered to refer to a movement, subgenre or an idiom, “Cyber- punk” was also an undeniably commercial label, attracting a lot of attention from readers, writers, journalists, critics, and marketing people. It spawned numerous derivative terms, including “cowpunk,” which described a revitalized western fiction (and had already been applied to the music of the Meat Puppets, whose name Gibson borrowed to describe prostitutes with neural blocks); “elfpunk,” which described post- Tolkien fantasy with attitude; and “ciderpunk,” a variety of pub rock from England’s West Country.

  • Science Fiction: the Evolutionary Mythology of the Future
    DOI:10.6531/JFS.2015.20(2).A5 ARTICLE .5 Science Fiction: The Evolutionary Mythology of the Future Tom Lombardo Center for Future Consciousness USA Abstract Science fiction is the most visible and influential form of futurist thinking in contemporary popular culture. As futurist narrative, science fiction resonates with the psychological disposition to give meaning and purpose to life through stories; it facilitates total person immersion in the future; and it stimulates all the major dimensions of future consciousness. As the “evolutionary mythology of the future,” science fiction facilitates the purposeful evolution of scientifically informed holistic future consciousness. Science fiction encompasses the future of everything and can stimulate cosmic consciousness. Though inspired by the modern scientific vision of reality, science fiction can be traced to ancient myth, with which it shares many features. The distinction between science fiction and fantasy is relative rather than absolute. Science fiction and futures studies exist on a continuum, overlapping, interactive, and mutually beneficial. Science fiction is evolutionary in that it continually builds upon past ideas within its heritage. The scientific theory of cosmic evolution provides the fundamental narrative framework for modern science fiction. Keywords: Science fiction, future consciousness, cosmic consciousness, futures narrative, mythology, evolution, futures studies, evolutionary mythology Science Fiction as a Way of Life Growing up in the 1950s, I was drawn into the wondrous, strange, and sometimes frightening world of the future through the movies. At my neighborhood theatre, I watched— totally mesmerized—the classic science fiction movies, The War of the Worlds, When Worlds Collide, The Time Machine, and Forbidden Planet.

  • Postmodernism and Science Fiction: a Confluence
    International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 8, Issue 9, 2019 Postmodernism and Science Fiction: A Confluence Munther Mohd. Habiba, aDepartment of English Language, Literature and Translation, Zarqa University, Zarqa, Jordan. There is close link between postmodernism and science fiction. Postmodernism offers a new approach for studying science fiction. Postmodernism emphasises the disappearance of boundaries between the artificial and natural, and reality and imagination, in the culture. Science fiction is a postmodern genre in which the boundary between the artificial and the natural is collapsed. Both postmodernism and science fiction concentrate on the drastic change in human life brought by the technology and media. Hyper-reality, simulation and post- industrial society are at the centre of both postmodernism and science fiction. The postmodern critics like Jean Baudrillard, Lyotard, and Donna Haraway turn to science fiction and consider it as a major form for representing the postmodern condition. Postmodernism has been discussed and defined again and again by these critics. Science fiction has an advantage over other genres of literature, in that it depicts the effect of science, technology and new economies of information technology. Postmodernism also concentrates on the influence of simulation and information technology on the world since World War II. The present research paper traces the influence of postmodernism on science fiction and the development of science fiction. Key words: Postmodernism, Science fiction, hyper-reality, simulation, information technology. Introduction The second half of the twentieth century witnessed fresh debate over past issues, arguments and debates. Technological development, growth in the use of media and computers, and progress in science are the marked features of the late twentieth century.
