As an early leader in the development of semiconductors, he helped usher in the computer revolution. His keen interest in design and form led him to collect African art, becoming part of the first generation of Westerners to devote serious attention to the continent’s visual art traditions. In academic settings, science and art tend to dwell in separate departments, and often in different schools. But, says Last, “I don’t separate the two in my mind.” He reflected on their convergence in a memoir, African Art and Silicon Chips: A Life in Science and Art (Sierra Vista Books), published in 2015.

  • Park 1 Jane Park Professor Kathy Patterson Writing 50 14 September
    Park 1 Jane Park Professor Kathy Patterson Writing 50 14 September 2012 Teleportation and its Consequences in Light of the Transporter From Star Trek: The Next Generation One of the most captivating futuristic technologies from Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek franchise is the transporter: a teleportation machine used to “beam” people and objects from one defined point to another. The original series left the mechanics of the transporter as seemingly magical, making viewers believe that the technology is something beyond their comprehension. However, with the succeeding series, Star Trek: The Next Generation, twenty-one years later, a more sophisticated form of science fiction entertainment has arrived. The Next Generation favors scientific theories over make-believe ideas more often than its predecessor. For instance, the transporter used in The Next Generation is detailed: the series' technical advisors provide blueprints that include the transporter's parts, the parts' names, and the parts’ functions. Furthermore, the blueprint has a step-by-step description of how the machine transports individuals from point “A” to point “B.” Much of the transporter's information refers to actual terms used in physics and engineering today. This is not to say, however, that everything in The Next Generation has scientific evidence, for there are still elements of futuristic and technological magic. If the series did extrapolate all of its information from science, then perhaps today, 25 years after the premiere of the series, we would be teleporting across the world with ease. In that case, the mechanics of teleportation would become as interesting as the mechanics of an Park 2 everyday car.

  • Star Trek, Global Capitalism and Immaterial Labour
    Star Trek, global capitalism and immaterial labour Dan Hassler-Forest As one of the most expansive storyworlds in sf, Star Trek appears to offer an imaginary representation of a post-capitalist utopia. But in the context of global capitalism the franchise’s superficial post-capitalism translates all too easily into a neoliberal fantasy of post-industrial labour and hierarchical social relations. Drawing on Hardt and Negri’s theoretical work on empire and globalisation, this essay approaches Star Trek: The Next Generation as an expression of the contradictory cultural logic of global capitalism. Keywords: Star Trek, global capitalism, sf, critical theory, cultural studies ‘To boldly go where no man has gone before’. Few phrases sum up more blatantly the triumphalist mind-set of 1960s American capitalism. Simulta- neously appropriating and rewriting five centuries of colonialism, the Star Trek imaginary (US 1966–) is structured by a teleological view of history in which human development is synonymous with modernisation and techno- logical advancement, resulting in a post-capitalist technological utopia. In Star Trek ’s ‘visionary’ future, humanity has essentially progressed beyond its own dialectical nature: class struggle, warfare, poverty, famine, sexism, racism and all other aspects of human history’s struggles with itself have been eradicated. The United Federation of Planets’ flagship Enterprise with its multi-ethnic (and indeed multi-species) crew therefore represented for many a meaningful ideal of human progress, or what Raymond
