Jason B. Thompson has a Kickstarter project to crowd-fund a new edition of The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath and Other Stories in comic book form…

“Here’s my plan: I want to go back to my Dream-Quest comics, retouch the art, and reprint all four stories — Dream-Quest, “Celephais,” “The White Ship” and “The Strange High House” — together in one definitive collection of HPL’s greatest dream stories. The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath will have a new cover, a map of the dreamworld, concept art of the various creatures and places, and a comic adaptation of Lovecraft’s four greatest dream stories. Altogether, it’ll be a 176-page, oversize (approximately A4 [about the same as the U.S. Letter] size) book.”

50 days left to go, and he’s currently had $5,888 pledged of the $10,000 goal.

Kindle edition of ‘Walking With Cthulhu’, coming next week

I’ve hand-coded a Kindle edition of my new book, Walking With Cthulhu: H.P. Lovecraft as psychogeographer, New York City 1924-26. The Kindle edition has a linked table-of-contents, and a fully linked “round trip” endnotes system (i.e.: from each endnote, click back to the correct point in the main text). The Kindle edition has just been accepted by Amazon, and they usually take about three or four days to make it “live” on the Amazon Kindle Store. Hopefully from early next week you should be able to look at the “free 10% sample” and/or buy it. I’ve set a U.S. price of $9.99, with the UK and German prices set to reflect the dollar.

The Center for Post-Natural History is dedicated to showing the sort of creature exhibits never likely to make it to the mainstream natural history museums…

“The PostNatural refers to living organisms that have been altered through processes such as selective breeding or genetic engineering.”

I wonder if they have any fish-frogs?

SF’s influence on science

12 Monday Sep 2011

Posted by asdjfdlkf in Historical context, Scholarly works

≈ Leave a comment

An interesting new article on a topic little-addressed outside of SF circles: “Modifiable Futures: Science Fiction at the Bench“…

“the function of science fiction […] in the history of scientific and technological innovation has often been obscured, misconstrued, or repudiated” [but] “they have a relationship of ongoing and productive mutual modification.”
