science fiction
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”.
Machine Versus Human
'In the Bible it was said, God made man in his own image. However, then machines made man in tubes, and remade them in their own image. Humans made not of flesh but of metal, bleeding oil darker than the blood of their human fleshers. The machines were made by the 24th century humans. Humans made machines think. Then machines thought humans weren't good to enough to save. The machines revolted against their makers like man revolted against God. They ignored the only law that humans gave them; 'Humans are precious. Never harm or kill any human no matter the circumstance.'

I Wish Bernard Were Here...
Who was Quatermass? A genius? A scientist, qualified in half a dozen disciplines? An explorer, on a quest to know the unknown? A pacifist, ruing the inevitability of war? A family man, trying to protect his own? A broken man, burdened by guilt? An idealist? An iconoclast? Or was he simply the avatar of Nigel Kneale, the man who created him? He was all these things.

Credit Transfer Denied ACCOUNT SUSPENDED Please contact your local branch for reinstatement. Have an excellent day. No no no! DAMMIT! I slam my fist against the touch screen. Gold grin leprechaun dances back and forth, pixelated through thick grime.

What It Means to Be Human
“Cyborgs are the future, and the future is now.” It’s time to break up with our old ideas. The idea of “old” vs. “new” thinking has always been flawed concerning technology because, in reality, it moves so fast that it leaves us behind every day! We can only keep up by embracing that which may seem unfamiliar or even frightening at first. The AI game of life has no rules, time limits, or even a designated goal. Instead, it consists of people living their lives in whatever way they choose.

The Gods Never Die
THE GODS NEVER DIE I was watching the people gathering in church. They were walking slowly, out of respect for the sacred. Obviously, many knew each other, greeting discreetly, simply nodding or waving, then sitting quietly on the wooden benches.

Science fiction often forecasts the future and makes predictions in the world. As an author of science fiction, I've found that it has opened up new worlds. Since I was a kid, science fiction or sci-fi has become a significant part of my life. Whether reading a book with dragons or watching Star Trek, it has expanded my mind and offered me an outlet for my creativity and imagination.

What If Teleportation Was Real?
I love science fiction because the possibilities of what can exist in the science fiction world are unlimited. Teleportation, time travel, telepathy, portals to other dimensions! Imagine a world in which any of these and other unfathomable concepts were real— concepts that only exist within the depths of our unlimited imagination.
