Started a new SDF modeling project in MagicaCSG.

It's going to be a weird organic-shaped retro-scifi spacecraft. 🚀

After watching “Arrival” last night, I’m fixated on the idea of nonlinear memory. It must be disorienting, and incredibly strange to remember your entire life when you haven’t fully lived it yet.

"Artists are people who are not at all interested in the facts—only in the truth. You get the facts from outside. The truth you get from inside." –Ursula K. Le Guin

Somehow in the past week or so I've fallen back in love with the aesthetics and vibe of the Star Wars prequels (especially "Attack of the Clones") as well as the Old Republic games. Nothing else quite looks like them. I want to live in that world...

I had to purchase my first historic fanzine for its Clifford D. Simak interview — this volume wasn’t digitized in the various online fanzine repositories.

In my new interview with C. Stuart Hardwick, editor of "Tales Of The United States Space Force," he not only talks about assembling this sci-fi short story / science fact anthology, but also how it deals with both the real and perceived thoughts about the space agency.

I had no idea that race, politics, and the impact of the Brown vs. The Board of Education (1952) and the Southern Manifesto (1956) in the South was such a prominent theme of Pat Frank’s Alas, Babylon (1959).

Here an attempt to get “anti-South” books off the public library shelves.

Czesi stworzyli komedię s-f. Patrząc na recenzje i oceny, to jest dno. Ktoś skomentował, że w końcu w Czechach powinno się wprowadzić prawo, które pozwoli karać za tworzenie złych filmów (jestem za tym, żeby i w Polsce coś takiego wprowadzili).

No i to wszystko zamiast mnie odstraszać, wręcz prowokuje do tego, żebym obejrzał ten film :D
