Progress/Production
I talked about the theme of progress and production in my review of R.U.R. Here, I unpack that theme a bit more.
Science Fiction
A Mirror & A Lens: Why I Love Science Fiction
Science fiction is a mirror and a lens that allows us to see ourselves with clarity and insight.
The Ethics of Westworld
Today I’d like to talk about my favourite new sci-fi show Westworld and some of the ethical questions it raises.
Why I Love Robots
The next story on my list is the play R.U.R by Czech writer Karl Capek. That review will come shortly, but I wanted to write a pre-post as it were about robots in general and why I’m so fascinated by them.
Utopia/Dystopia
Today I’d like to talk a little bit about the post-utopian theme found in The Time Machine (and other sci-fi stories of course).
