This time I had some sketches, you know... I mean I made some time in the last weeks before I jump to Noising. Before that I just jibrushed (I used this word first time today, this is the second time... it's Fun. period!) I like to plan ahead, and if I have time, I even write the whole articles... but not on Noise. Mostly, because I was discouraged by the error message, when I was pasting from my text editor my own text... so I rather just write directly. Anyways... still a lot to learn, meh situations to get used to in this space... but as #SciFriday came, I'll write some thoughts about SciFi ... I wrote a couple of times about the when I started to like #SciFi (https://noise.cash/post/13wxvnk2) and I wrote a couple of ideas ... but never follow through. I left behind consistency and I was bored quickly at the end of the day. That because I'm a human ... And as humans, we tend to let our emotions to take charge in certain moments. This is I think the crucial part of every SciFi which elevates the success of a good written story in the genre. Science often times is abstract, is too perfect for human mind... so we need a playground to play with these new steps, new knowledge, to try on and see if we can get used to this. It's like Noise... you have to engage in it, to decide wether or not you'll like this in the long run, or what obstacles will pop up as we play with it... That's why I love Science Fiction. Hard SF more specifically ... because it helps to understand a concept from different angles, different storylines, and it allows us, to explore our humanity in an unknown world... so we can focus more on our characters journey. Let's see for example the movie Interstellar (directed by Christopher Nolan, music by Hans Zimmer adds a lot to the cinema-experience but) ... the real success of the movie is the fundamental human bond, the emotions between the characters ... always a common ground in any story... Or one of my favourite novel "Return from the stars" by Stanislaw Lem (I Noised about this, remember? https://noise.cash/post/1wrn9p4j ). The struggle to be a man after spending a century in space (based on the increased time speed on Earth... exactly the main concept as in Stellaris). Maybe I'll write more about this ... what do you say ... do you find it interesting too? Do you like Hard SF? >D
