  • Defining Humanity Through an Examination of Asimovian Robots By
    A Robot By Any Other Name Could Be A Human: defining humanity through an examination of Asimovian robots by Abigail Bernasconi A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health (Honors Associate) Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in German (Honors Associate) Presented May 27, 2021 Commencement June 2021 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Abigail Bernasconi for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health and Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in German presented on May 27, 2021. Title: A Robot By Any Other Name Could Be A Human: defining humanity through an examination of Asimovian robots. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Diana Rohlman Being human is often portrayed as desirable in fiction. Many fictional beings, particularly robots and androids, seek out being human as a goal. Although current robotics is not advanced enough for robots and androids to be deemed sentient, the world of fiction is quickly becoming reality. With the integration of robots into society, we are confronted not only with how society views robots, but how, through the eyes of fictional robots, society and humanity are defined. This thesis seeks to explore the definition of humanity and what it means to be human. The fictional works of the Star Trek universe and those of Isaac Asimov suggest that relationships, those of friendship and antagonism, and mortality, may also define humanity. Understanding what makes us human better prepares us for the eventual integration of intelligent robots into humanity as well as to imagine what their place in our society will look like.

Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

[end bumper] [audio of LeVar Burton] It was really difficult on a weekly basis for the audience to see what Geordi saw. In fact, we never really successfully did it, in the seven years that we did Next Generation. In fact, the audience has never seen it in any of the movies, the audience has never seen what Geordi sees. Geordi sees all of the electromagnetic spectrum. That means he sees everything from infrared to x- ray. Geordi sees sound, ok? [end audio clip] JARRAH: Hi and welcome to Women at Warp. Join us as our crew of four women Star Trek fans boldly go on our bi-weekly mission to explore our favourite franchise. My name is Jarrah. Thanks for tuning in. Today, with us we have crewmembers Andi−− ANDI: Hello JARRAH: And Sue. SUE: Hi, everybody. JARRAH: We also have a very special guest, Kari. And I’m going to get you to introduce yourself and maybe tell us a bit about how you first got into Star Trek. KARI: Yeah, sure. So as you mentioned, my name is Kari. I’ve loved Star Trek since early high school. I started with Voyager because I was particularly inspired by the strong female role models. I loved Janeway. I’m also planning to get my PhD in sociology. So because of that and my analytical nature, Star Trek has always been a very deep well for me to dig into, in terms of having interesting things to analyze.

  • Data's First Christmas
    DATA'S FIRST CHRISTMAS RON STEIN DATA'S FIRST CHRISTMAS "Geordie, can you explain the concept of "Christmas Spirit" to me?" Geordie LaForge looked up from his snack, and smiled at the innocent, quizzical look on the face of his android friend Data. "Here we go again!" he thought. The two of them were sitting in their favorite booth in Ten-Forward, the crew lounge of the Federation Starship Enterprise. The two met like this just after their watch ended nearly every day. Geordie would grab a quick snack, and then they'd spend time chatting with friends, or just people watching. Ten-Forward was an ideal spot for this, with its near constant hum of activity. It was the cultural heart of the ship. For Geordie, people watching served the same purpose that it had for young men since time began. For Data, it was an education. "Why do you ask, Data? I mean, what brought this up?" "It is something I have noticed in the past, and I am observing it again here on board the Enterprise: as the Christmas anniversary approaches, beings of many races and faiths become kinder toward one another, and they seem happier. This is called "The Christmas Spirit". I do not understand." Geordie wondered briefly how an android managed to look perplexed, then asked "Data, how much do you know about Christmas?" Knowing Data's proclivity for detail, he quickly added "Just a summary, please. I've already read the Bible." "Of course, I too have read the Bible, as well as many other works associated with Christianity and the legend of Christ.

  • Trekonderoga 2018
    Special Guests Karl Urban Original Star Trek series fan and New Zealand-born actor Karl Urban actively pursued and won the role of Dr. Leonard McCoy on 2009’s motion picture named, appropriately enough, Star Trek. In his portrayal, Karl evoked many of the subtle mannerisms and vocalisms made famous by one DeForest Kelley of an earlier era – one could consider his performance as an ultimate fan tribute. Karl was interested in acting from a very early age, debuting at age 8 in the New Zealand television series Pioneer Woman. Internationally he appeared in both Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and its spin-off Xena: Warrior Princess, playing recurring roles in both American/New Zealand series. He eventually started working on Hollywood productions and in relatively no time was in big productions such as The Lord of the Rings, The Bourne Supremacy, The Chronicles of Riddick, and Doom. Hollywood press has speculated that he could have landed the role of “James Bond” had not previous film commitments gotten in the way (the role went to Daniel Craig). Other films he appeared in include Red, Dredd, The Loft, Pete’s Dragon, while Karl most recently appeared as “Skurge” in 2016’s Thor: Ragnarok. Karl is active on the convention circuit and makes his first bombshell appearance at this year’s edition of Trekonderoga! Be sure not to miss your opportunity to meet Karl onboard the original Enterprise – where else but in Sickbay, naturally – in a time-defying trip back to the original series sets with today’s Dr. McCoy! Appears Saturday & Sunday only Gates McFadden Not many Enterprise-D characters could call their Captain by his first name, but Doctor Beverly Crusher, memorably played by Gates McFadden, certainly could – and did.

  • The History of Star Trek
    The History of Star Trek The original Star Trek was the brainchild of Gene Roddenberry (1921-1991), a US TV producer and scriptwriter. His idea was to make a TV series that combined the futuristic possibilities of science fiction with the drama and excitement of TV westerns (his original title for the series was ‘Wagon Train to the Stars’). Star Trek was first aired on American TV in 1966, and ran for three series. Each episode was a self-contained adventure/mystery, but they were all linked together by the premise of a gigantic spaceship, crewed by a diverse range of people, travelling about the galaxy on a five-year mission ‘to explore new life and new civilisations, to boldly go where no man has gone before’. Although not especially successful it attracted a loyal fan-base, partly male fans that liked the technological and special effects elements of the show. But the show also attracted a large number of female fans, many of whom were drawn to the complex interaction and dynamic between the three main characters, the charismatic but impetuous Captain Kirk (William Shatner), the crotchety old doctor McCoy (DeForest Kelley) and the coldly logical Vulcan science officer Spock (Leonard Nimoy). After the show was cancelled in 1969 the fans conducted a lengthy and ultimately successful campaign to resurrect the franchise. Roddenberry enjoyed success with several motion pictures, including Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979); action-thriller Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982); Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) and the more comic Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986).

  • 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.

  • Sibling Communication In" Star Trek: the Next Generation": Conflicts
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 364 932 CS 508 412 AUTHOR Fuss-Reineck, Marilyn TITLE Sibling Communication in "Star Trek: The Next Generation": Conflicts between Brothers. PUB DATE Nov 93 NOTE 23p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Speech Communication Association (79th, Miami, FL, November 18-21, 1993). PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Class Activities; Conflict; *Conflict Resolution; Cultural Influences; Higher Education; *Intercultural Communication; *Interpersonal Communication; *Sibling Relationship; Siblings IDENTIFIERS *Communication Behavior; Family Communication; *Star Trek (The Next Generation) ABSTRACT "Star Trek: The Next Generation" depicts sibling relationships between Data and Lore (android), Worf and Kurn (Klingon) and Jean-Luc and Robert (human) that illustrate conflictual communication and suggest teaching applications. The most disturbing empirical communication research on conflict between brothers reports that male sibling pairs are consistently more violent than female sibling pairs. The relationship between Data and Lore is introduced in "Datalore," further developed in "Brothers," and concluded in "Descent II." Despite the almost identical "genetic" similarities between the brothers and the fact that they share the same parent and home, their values are dissimilar. Worf and Kurn's relationship is introduced in "Sins of the Father" and continued in "Redemption I and II." Even though the Klingon culture is violent, arguments between brother are not settled by physical attack because the hierarchy contributes to smooth functioning. In the episode "Family," captain Jean-Luc is able to reveal his frailties to his brother Robert, who is placed in his once familiar role of giving advice and protecting his younger brother.
