The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.
What Will Happen to Earth in the Next Billion Years?
In the vast expanse of time, a billion years holds a myriad of possibilities for Earth's evolution. While predicting with absolute certainty is challenging, scientific theories and models offer insights into the potential transformations our planet may undergo. From geological shifts to astronomical phenomena, here's an exploration of what could happen to Earth in the next billion years.
Star Trek - "The Squire of Gothos"
Greetings and felicitations! "The Squire of Gothos" is an extraterrestrial Liberace (redundant?) who sits at an old-fashioned Eighteenth-century harpsichord and kidnaps the Trekkers so he can reap hallucinatory mind control hijinks on them, in much the same manner as "Next Generation"'s "Q" (actor John de Lancie, who puts one in the mind of a cross between Howie Mandel and Jello Biafra) would do, decades later, long before anyone even THOUGHT about having a "Star Trek" spinoff series.
Star Trek - "The Enemy Within"
I thought I better stop and write about "The Enemy Within," the fifth episode of Season One, TOS, while it was still fresh in my memory. Of course, I'd seen it before, many, many years ago, and it always sticks out in my mind because it's referenced in the liner notes of G.G. Allin's Roir cassette compilation Hated in the Nation, which I'm sure most other "Star Trek" fans are unaware of and, even if they were, would not be proud of. The liner notes, by Mykel Board, use the metaphor of the Evil Kirk (the putative "enemy within"), who is a violent, tantrum-throwing uglification of Captain Jimmy T., pitted against the meandering Milquetoast Kirk, who is a weak sister who can't make up his mind on any pressing concern. Board suggests Allin is (was), "the enemy within," as well.

Livingstone MlonziPublished 6 days ago in FuturismThe Outer Limits: "The Special One"
My special affinity for "The Outer Limits" is virtually supernatural; I like it almost as much as "Friday the Thirteenth: The Series" (which I haven't written nearly as much about), which isn't nearly as smart (but which does have Louise Robey, which makes it somewhat superior).
The Impact of Futurism on Technology and Innovation
Futurism, as an artistic and social movement, emerged in the early 20th century, focusing on the dynamism, speed, energy, and power of modern technology and its impact on society. However, the concept of futurism extends beyond art and literature; it also influences technological advancements and innovations. This article explores the profound impact of futurism on technology and innovation, shaping the way we live, work, and interact with the world around us.
