A new writing blog for a shiny new posthuman SF universe appeared yesterday in my website logs, from a long-time reader here, and I just had to tell y’all to go check it out. The site’s brand new, but there’s already some juicy content there, and if you ask me, it’ll be well worth following in the future.
Thanks Alastair.
Readers, if you’re into the same types of “hard” sci-fi technology that you see here (I swear I didn’t steal it from him) and, well, anthropormorphic animals, go and check it out.
I won’t hold it against you :p I think us transhumanist worldbuilder types must either be cast from the same mode or drinking from the same metaphorical well, since I was surprised how many ideas Alistair and I managed to derive somewhat independently myself.
I suspect that the Orion’s Arm project, or possibly GURPS Transhuman Space, codified many of the transhumanist tropes.
Guilty as charged, with a little Eclipse Phase and Deus Ex thown in as well.
Um… all of the above? Heh.
cast from the same mold
Hate it when I do that…
Funny you should mention this — I found it through TV Tropes a few days ago myself, and I’ve been meaning to take a more in-depth look when I have the time.
Perhaps I should try to plug my own little project as well one of these days, once I have a little more written for it…
