Hey all,
I was wondering if some of you TAs like SF a lot
I do so i was wondering
Plus i think it's so great to listen to trance while raeding SF, because it goes along with the story so well...and then when you hear that song again, you think about the story you read and everything is more powerful, brings back memories...=)
So ? |

| Definetly I love science fiction, I like a lot the work of Isaac Asimov and some of the books that Carl Sagan wrote (even though thay are more like science with little fiction they are mind-blowing) as for listening to Tance while reading SF? I guess I'll have ti try that out later. |

Ah, cool, someone who loves Sf :)
I love Asimov as well, aspecially the Foundation series
I'm more into hard-SF and space-opera, like books from Greg Egan, Dan Simmons, Greg Bear, Gregory Benford, Verno Vinge and Stephen Baxter
Do you know those ?
The new Stephen Baxter is out in the UK, Origin, the 3rd in the Manifold series, i suggest you (and others) to read that ! (the 2 previous ones are called Time and Space)
More SF lovers please ! :stongue: |

Yeah, I like sci-fi. I didn't used to like it but then I opened my mind a little and realized it was pretty cool. While we're on the topic of sci-fi, did anybody go see Planet of the Apes yet?
I saw it on Friday, and I thought it was pretty good. I liked it alot more than the first one, it had a much better storyline. |

Sci-fi is different than science-fiction
Sci-fi is more like..bad science-fiction to me, like cheesy shows on TV
Anyway, Planet of the Apes is SF, not sci-fi and that's cool !
I'd like to watch it, it'll be released in 3 weeks in France
Since you watched it, how is it different? Don't tell me everything, i still want to appreciate it, but tell me if there's more action or thinking ?
I hope there's not too much action...like this second half of Matrix which was stupid compared to the reflexion of the first part |

Yup I know them I haven't read much of their work but yeah I like them I dunno sometimes you think that a lot of those things can actually happen or are already in the process of happening..weird thing what do you think? |

That's right, it makes you think it's possible, especially from those hard-sf writers, since some of them are scientists
What's amazing is the way they manage to convince you it sounds possible
As long as an author is gifted to put you in this atmosphere,he'll make you believe many scientific breakthrough for example and you'll enjoy the reading and the story so much that you won't need to ask yourself : "but wait, it's whatever, how such a thing could happen in the real world that i know?"
That's the power of science-fiction =) |

| It's amazing how much science fiction turns into science fact. It sometimes can make you wonder if science fiction is forseeing the future or is it directing the future? |
