  • Anime's Apocalypse: Neon Genesis Evangelion As Millennarian Mecha
    Anime's Apocalypse: Neon Genesis Evangelion as Millennarian Mecha review essay by Mick Broderick Introduction: 1. From its startling opening credit sequence the 26-episode TV anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion (NGE), which first aired in October 1995 through to March 1996, foregrounds its overtly apocalyptic trajectory and postmodern form. For many the series remains at the zenith of Japanese television animation and it is unlikely to be surpassed any time soon due to its staggeringly complex detail and textuality; its allegory, characterisation and design. 2. Of interest here is how the program melds the sensibilities of post-war modern Japan with a post- holocaust, science fiction future.[1] It combines ideas/ideals of catastrophe, myth, mecha, agency, spectacle, kinesis, chaos and montage with a ubiquitous sense of imminence, solitude, quiescence, introspection, prophecy, teleology and predeterminism. 3. It is hardly credible to do justice to the Neon Genesis Evangelion project, designed to broadcast its cumulative ten-and-a-half hours of animation across a half-year of screen programming, in the few pages of analysis allotted here. Hence, my focus is on privileging some of the more enigmatic and subtextual lines of narrative which broach the series' concerns with the apocalyptic and its multifaceted, cross-cultural manifestations. Series Summary: 4. Neon Genesis Evangelion takes place, according to its creator, Anno Hideaki, along the following schema: The year: 2015 A world where, fifteen years before, over half the human population perished. A world that has been miraculously revived: its economy, the production, circulation, consumption of material goods, so that even the shelves of convenience stores are filled.

  • DOCTRINE of the MILLENNIUM May 26, 1987
    DOCTRINE OF THE MILLENNIUM May 26, 1987 I. Definition: it constitutes the final 1,000 years of human history before the eternal state, extending from the Second Advent to the dissolution of original creation (Rev.20:2-7; cp. 20:11ff; 21:1). II. Synonyms. A. Thousand years (6X in Rev.20:2-7). B. Summer (Mt.24:32). C. Wedding supper (Rev.19:9; cp. Mt.25:1-13; 22:1ff). D. Rest (Jer.50:34; 30:10; 46:27; Zech.1:11). E. Kingdom of God (heaven; Dan.2:44,45; 7:13,14; Mt.25:1ff; 2Tim.4:1; 1Cor.15:24). F. Times of refreshing (Act.3:19). G. Time of restoration (Act.3:21). H. Day of the Lord (2Pet.3:10). This includes the Tribulation and 1,000 years. The Age of Aquarius (circa.2000), when peace will rule the planets. III. False views. A. Amillennial: says the 1,000 year references are figurative and that the present age is the Millennium. Augustine advanced this view in his work "City of God". The popular, modified Augustinian view espoused by modern amillennialists equates the Millennium with believers reigning with Christ in heaven. The binding of Satan is figurative for Christ's triumph over him at the Cross. Their Millennium ends with the second coming. For instance, the first resurrection is the Christian soul going to heaven at death, and the second resurrection is the resurrection of all men. B. Postmillennial: believe the gospel will be triumphant in the last 1,000 years of history and, when the world is converted, Christ will return.

  • The Complete X-Files Ebook
    THE COMPLETE X-FILES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Chris Knowles,Matt Hurwitz | 224 pages | 23 Sep 2016 | Titan Books Ltd | 9781785654336 | English | London, United Kingdom The Complete X-Files PDF Book In one of the most tongue in cheek, unusual episodes of the series, Scully consults with a Truman Capote-like novelist who wants to write "non- fiction science fiction" based around an unusual x-file, giving an outsider's perspective to a case. You may not need files for most quick fixes. It's an unnerving, calculating episode, where the mere appearance of Modell onscreen spells very bad thing. There's also a lot of heart in the episode, with Boyle portraying a sensitive, gruff loner dealing with the worst of curses. The episode seems to be heavily influenced by the works of H. Essentially, the episode is about the government using television signals to drive people to madness. This not only makes filing faster but makes it much easier to find documents afterward. An FBI manhunt ensues, with agents in pursuit of an antagonist that can alter their very perceptions of reality. The beauty of customizing your filing system this way is that it can always be further subdivided and organized if you need to. This grisly, nightmare-inducing episode about an inbred family of killers was so terrifying and controversial that Fox famously decreed that it would never be aired again after its initial broadcast prompted a flood of complaints from concerned viewers. I could stop at that as a reason to watch, but there's more. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

  • Transcript of the Truth Is out There
    1 You’re listening to Imaginary Worlds, a show about how we create them and why we suspend our disbelief. I’m Eric Molinsky. There are two ways to go when extending a franchise – reboots, or revivals. I’m a sucker for the picking up where we left off – even if it doesn’t work a lot of the time because after so many years, the actors can’t relate to their characters anymore or the zeitgeist has moved on. But I just love the idea that these fictional characters are still going about their lives even while we’re not watching them. And so I will tune in with cautious optimism when The X-Files resumes for a limited run this winter. CLIP: X-FILES At its height, The X-Files averaged 20 million viewers a week – a huge number even before TV got fractured. I was so obsessed with the show, I had action figures of Mulder and Scully on my windowsill, donning little FBI badges, plastic guns and flashlights. In case you never watched the show -- Fox Mulder and Dana Scully were FBI agents assigned to paranormal cases. They were also on an epic quest to unravel a conspiracy between aliens and a small group of powerful men that were quietly preparing the human race for colonization. Mulder was believed in every supernatural phenomenon. Scully was the skeptic. But I wasn’t a fan to the end. David Duchovny left after seven seasons, and I thought they should’ve wrapped it up but they kept going with new actors.

From early newscasts of Queen Elizabeth II.’s coronation ceremony in 1952, to a collection of devastating and traumatic events such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963, the Watergate scandal (1972), the Challenger (1986) and Columbia (2003) spacecraft disasters and the cataclysmic event of 9/11 (2001), that burned themselves into the collective subconscious through television images – all those events rapidly evolved from news broadcast to what Marita Sturken has famously labeled “instant history”[1]. Coronation ceremony of Queen Elizabeth II. – and the BBC is broadcasting live! CBS News anchor Walter Cronkite reports that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. Following the Watergate scandal, U.S. president Nixon reads his resignation letter live on TV. The Columbia space shuttle disaster. Attack on World Trade Center, September 11, 2001. Views of inundated areas in New Orleans, Louisiana, following breaking of the levees surrounding the city as the result of Hurricane Katrina (2005). Moreover, television also plays with history and provides its audience with a plethora of factual and fictional accounts of our past: myriads of biographic accounts of historic figures as well as documentaries bring history closer to millions and millions of viewers.

  • Climate Changes Over the Past Millennium: ∗ Relationships with Mediterranean Climates( )
    IL NUOVO CIMENTO Vol. 29 C, N. 1 Gennaio-Febbraio 2006 DOI 10.1393/ncc/i2005-10223-1 Climate changes over the past millennium: ∗ Relationships with Mediterranean climates( ) M. E. Mann Department of Environmental Sciences, University of Virginia Charlottesville, VA, USA (ricevuto l’1 Settembre 2005) Summary. — Evidence is reviewed for climate change and its causes over the interval spanning roughly the past millennium. Particular emphasis is placed on patterns of climate change influencing Mediterranean climates of the Northern Hemi- sphere. The evidence is taken from studies using high-resolution climate “proxy” data sources, and climate modeling simulations. The available evidence suggests that forced changes in dynamical modes of variability including the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) have played a key role in the patterns of climate variability in Mediterranean regions over the past millennium. PACS 92.60.Ry – Climatology. PACS 92.70.Gt – Climate dynamics. PACS 92.60.Wc – Weather analysis and prediction. PACS 01.30.Cc – Conference proceedings. I review here evidence for climate change and its causes over the interval spanning roughly the past millennium, with a focus on patterns of climate change influencing Mediterranean climates of the Northern Hemisphere. The evidence is taken from instru- mental and high-resolution climate “proxy” data sources, and climate modeling studies. Several research groups have recently developed annually-resolved, hemispheric recon- structions of Northern Hemisphere mean temperature changes over the past 500-2000 years suggesting anomalous late 20th century warmth at hemispheric or global scales (e.g. [28, 13, 21, 30, 34, 7]). In addition, a large number of simulations of Northern Hemi- sphere mean temperature spanning the past millennium or longer have been performed over the past few years using the full hierarchy of available climate models and estimates of past natural and anthropogenic radiative forcing histories [5,14,4,17,15,10,3,11].

  • Games Workshop Appoints Former Hasbro Studios Executive to Newly Created Role As It Renews Focus on Its Content Strategy
    Games Workshop appoints former Hasbro Studios executive to newly created role as it renews focus on its content strategy 11th March 2021: Games Workshop Group PLC, the hugely successful hobby, publishing, video games and retail business, has appointed former Turner Broadcasting and Hasbro Studios executive Finn Arnesen as its first head of entertainment development. Reporting into Jon Gillard, Games Workshop’s EVP of global licensing, Arnesen is tasked with mining the extensive and multi-faceted Warhammer universe – home to thousands of novels and short stories, featuring a diverse range of engaging and extremely popular characters – to develop live-action and animated content for broadcast channels and platforms around the globe. Arnesen, who was most recently SVP global distribution & development at Hasbro Studios, brings 25 years’ experience to the role. He inherits an initial content slate that includes the previously announced live-action drama based on the best-selling Eisenhorn series of novels. Eisenhorn, a classic tale of one powerful character’s fight against external and internal threats, set in the galaxy-spanning, dark dystopia of the 41st millennium, is currently being developed with Frank Spotnitz (The Man in the High Castle, The X-Files) and his company, Big Light Productions. Jon Gillard comments: “In its almost 40-year history, Warhammer has been a leader in the field of tabletop and video gaming, growing into one of the most fully realised examples of fantasy and sci-fi world-building ever devised. The characters we’ve explored and stories we’ve told during that time, through games, books, comics and more, are crying out to be brought to the screen.
