He was 65. His most famous role was that of Bronson in the TV drama Grange Hill, but we fans remember him best as Admiral Ozzel in The Empire Strikes Back. He also appeared in episodes of Doctor Who and Blake’s 7. His other films included Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade, one of several appearances as Hitler. He wrote three memoirs of his life on stage and screen. At Con*Cept, he was a warm and friendly guest. Always cheerful, he lit up any room he entered, and left his fans with a lot of happy memories.

It was born out of the recognition that scientific discovery and the creation of plausible fictional scenarios are often two sides of the same coin. Each relies on an understanding of the way the world works, coupled with the imaginative ability to invent new or alternative explanations—and even other worlds. Authored by practicing scientists as well as writers of hard science fiction, these books explore and exploit the borderlands between accepted science and its fictional counterpart. Uncovering mutual influences, promoting fruitful interaction, narrating and analyzing fictional scenarios, together they serve as a reaction vessel for inspired new ideas in science, technology, and beyond. Whether fiction, fact, or forever undecidable: the Springer Series “Science and Fiction” intends to go where no one has gone before! Its largely non-technical books take several different approaches. Journey with their authors as they • Indulge in science speculation—describing intriguing, plausible yet unproven ideas; • Exploit science fiction for educational purposes and as a means of promoting critical thinking; • Explore the interplay of science and science fiction—throughout the history of the genre and looking ahead; • Delve into related topics including, but not limited to: science as a creative process, the limits of science, interplay of literature and knowledge; • Tell fictional short stories built around well-defined scientific ideas, with a supplement summarizing the science underlying the plot.

  • NVS 3-1-5 M-Perschon
    Steam Wars Mike Perschon (Grant MacEwan University/University of Alberta, Canada) Abstract: While steampunk continues to defy definition, this article seeks to identify a coherent understanding of steampunk as an aesthetic. By comparing and contrasting well-known cultural icons of George Lucas’s Star Wars with their steampunk counterparts, insightful features of the steampunk aesthetic are suggested. This article engages in a close reading of individual artworks by digital artists who took part in a challenge issued on the forums of CGSociety (Computer Graphics Society) to apply a steampunk style to the Star Wars universe. The article focuses on three aspects of the steampunk aesthetic as revealed by this evidentiary approach: technofantasy, a nostalgic interpretation of imagined history, and a willingness to break nineteenth century gender roles and allow women to act as steampunk heroes. Keywords: CGSociety (Computer Graphics Society), digital art, gender roles, George Lucas, Orientalism, Star Wars , steampunk, technofantasy, visual aesthetic ***** It has been over twenty years since K.W. Jeter inadvertently coined the term ‘steampunk’ in a letter to Locus magazine in 1987. Jeter jokingly qualified the neo-Victorian writings he, James P. Blaylock, and Tim Powers were producing with the ‘-punk’ appendix, playing off the 1980s popularity of cyberpunk. Ironically the term stuck, both as descriptor for nearly every neo-Victorian work of speculative fiction since Jeter’s Infernal Devices (1987), while retroactively subsuming works such as Keith Roberts’s Pavane (1968), Michael Moorcock’s The Warlord of the Air (1971) , the 1960s television series Wild, Wild West (1965-1969, created by Michael Garrison), and even the writings of H.G.

  • Mayorga 1 Daniel Mayorga Dear Professor Belli, I Learned a Lot
    Mayorga 1 Daniel Mayorga Dear Professor Belli, I learned a lot throughout the process of this research project. Not because of all the research done, but in the sense of actually putting time and effort into the writing. I first began with the idea of exotic weapons as the first choice as a proposal, but I found out later on that what interested me the most is the weapons in general. So when I finally got this research topic approved, I began researching about several weapons that are very common within the works of Science Fiction. In addition, at one point during the research process, I found a Science Fiction sub-genre that definitely helped keep my thoughts very much focused on one particular aspect. Which are parallels between Science Fiction and real-world military weapons. The drafting and writing process was a very extensive, yet confusing one. First of all, there were many sources to choose from and it was very difficult to drop some of the other sources I had nonetheless. Once I did finish the first draft it was a tremendous relief, as I had all of my thoughts put into the form of a draft. The way how I had the claims and the supporting details were very informative, as I used details from sources that were rich with information. The revising process led me to include more information in terms of moral values that are discussed with weapons. Not only are ethical issues a problem that revolve around weapons all of the time, but they are also one of the most discussed topics today.
