    As fascinating as real-world images of #Barsoom are for my #Astronomy and #SciFi heart:
    #Elon's megalomaniacal #Longtermist visions for #Mars have spoilt the planet for me.

    Of all the dystopian novels that are being realized, #SyFy and #Amazon's series, #TheExpanse, has been coming to my mind time and again: a world dominated by multinationals and billionaires, and interplanetary warfare...

  5. A long time ago, a lived in a place where we had cable TV. We didn't actually subscribe to any channels, but once in a rare while the cable company would give us a little taste. In this particular case, it was of the #SyFy channel. My friend and I consumed all of it, which is when I was introduce to #TheStarLost - a short running, single season Canadian #scifi series from the early #70s.

    The premise is simple - our heroes run into trouble in their own little dome world, and discover that they're in fact not on a planet, but being evacuated from a dying Earth to somewhere far far away, along with numerous other isolated domes.

    There has been a bit of an accident though, so they find themselves on their own, on a strange enormous star ship, which unfortunately is on a collision course with a star.

    It's slow. 70s slow. But given that my own life is currently a little chaotic and somewhat stressful, this is the soothing oil that calms the water.

  7. Disclosure Day presenta a un Spielberg que sigue siendo Spielberg y a la vez está de vuelta de Spielberg.

    Es mi resumen.

    Y es que El día de la revelación sabe a un resumen de una de las líneas creativas principales del mítico director: su ciencia ficción alienígena.

    Este filme es eso, una línea, la desnudez de lo hizo o aquello que hacía en su chasis, la mínima expresión de su cine, y sin mimos. Una línea no en el guion, que se extiende demasiado para contar lo que cuenta (sabía que habría un buen presupuesto). Una línea quizá consecuencia de cierta desgana para vestir la película e incidir en los points que plantea. Parece -por el sucinto desarrollo, no por el generoso montaje-, que grabó el esquema o la sinopsis antes que el guion mismo, y que luego montó extras.

    Esta película es un sustancioso paseo por el marco y un esprint por el dibujo.

    Hay planos muy bonitos, muy spielbergianos, dos protas solventes que hacen lo que pueden con lo que tienen; y una decisión plausible consistente en dejar para el final la revelación y la aparición (a destacar la bonita aportación de las imágenes de archivo retro ficcionadas o la introducción de esa presentadora de informativo emocionada y shockeada), así como no esquivar asuntos morales y -no o- espirituales. Todo está y aporta, pero se queda aferrado con chinchetas... Como los puntos a tocar de un escritor de mapa o como un escritor de brújula demasiado confiado.

    Spielberg parece reconocer que esto fue un capricho porque ama rodar (y se lo puede permitir). Hacer lo que se quiere sin tener que pensar en la espada de Damocles de la taquilla es un lujo reservado a pocas personas, a indies y a gente que tiene el aval de una obra detrás y/o es una marca.

    Esto lo vimos antes y mejor, a él entre otros.

  9. Good Morning #Canada
    If you're looking for a unique #TravelCanada destination then Flin Flon has to be on your list. You may wonder why I'd recommend a mining town with a funny name. Flin Flon was named after a character in a 1905 #SyFy novel and is one of two towns in Canada that is separated by a provincial border. The town lies in a band of volcanic rock giving it a unique landscape in Manitoba.

  14. Finding balance was a major challenge when writing "MIR.EXE." How do you write speculative fiction that’s both a credible forecast of future tech and society—and a damn good story people actually want to read?

  17. I typically prefer multiple points of view when reading. Though I'll admit, I'm getting a little tired of naming your chapters just the name of the character. Feels boring to me.

  26. *The Ark* on Syfy seems to have a premiere date for its 3rd season — Wednesday, July 29th — based on summer release listings recently posted by Deadline and TVLine. No news on Syfy’s official site as yet.

    Our discussion group account is @thearkchat. Please feel welcome to request to follow if you’re interested in the show.

    I’d undertaken to organize Saturday afternoon EDT watch parties for seasons one and two before the season three premiere. Input and feedback would be very welcome.

    With just 10 weeks, until the premiere two of these holiday weekends, it would be tight to cover 24 episodes. With two episodes back-to-back and some midweek watches, it might still be workable.

    Another challenge is availability of the episodes. A number of licence agreements have run out, and the second season hasn’t been picked up in some markets.

    With NBCUniversal trying to sell Syfy, Peacock no longer carries the show in the USA - seasons 1 &2 are only available as digital purchases on Amazon and Apple.

    Canada - Crave has 2 seasons.

    Australia - Binge has 2 seasons.

    France - Universal and SFR Play have 2 seasons.

    Germany - WOW and Prime Video have 2 seasons.

    Ireland - Sky and Now have 1 season.

    Japan -

    UK - Sky and Now have 1 season.

  27. Don't know about weird but waiting at the terminal in San Antonio. A little tipsy at the gate waiting for the flight back to DC.

    Just for the heck of it, I included the poem on my FB and Instagram post. Too many characters for Mastodon.

  28. When typing, anywhere with a sprawling view behind the computer and a light breeze in the room.
    When writing by hand, a loud train/metro, a busy airport, anywhere to explore quiet thoughts in a loud world.

  29. Honestly, all I'd really need is an AI pairing to gather data and synthesize into actionable intelligence. With something well-trained, I imagine a good-ol' balisong would do the trick.
