Completely Different Than Anything We Can Imagine
Have you ever wondered why book, movie, and TV depictions of aliens are almost always human or human-like? I have. And I wonder, if there are alien life forms, what makes us think they’d be like us? My guess is that we find it very difficult to imagine life outside of what we can perceive.…

Human x AI
Today Artificial Intelligence is a recurring theme, for obvious reasons. Its use is more and more frequent, and for this reason all discussions always end with the same question: Will AI completely replace humans in the future?

The Art of Horror
Hello, fellow scream-lovers. My name is Brian, and I’m the new kid on the block. Jack is my grandpa and Venus is my little sister and partner in crime. I used to draw when I was in school and have started to get back into it; my grandpa said that I might find a welcome…

Don’t Know Science
What do you do when you love science fiction, want to write science fiction, but don’t have a degree in any science? What do you do when you’re not the typical geek who loves nerdy stuff but never had the focus to get through college? Or struggled with a learning disability that killed that dream?…
