All a testimony to the regard in which he was held.Įlsewhere on this site, this 2019 summer edition, we have a tribute article on Graham's life in science, science fiction and space. Bearing in mind that Graham had been in chronic ill health, and largely housebound, the past decade, the gathering was pleasantly well-attended with family, close friends, some first generation PSIFAns, core SF² Concatenation team members and a good number of former work colleagues present. First off, as we were posting last season's edition, we said our farewells to our founding co-editor Graham. See also what the novel Dune has to offer on current world politics in the short video linked at the end of the film section below.Īnother rollercoaster season of ups and, sadly, downs for us. The Chinese have a curse: 'may you live in interesting times'.
Zelenskyi/Holoborod’ko is arguably more sane than Trump/Brexit. And then he won the election with a landslide victory! But things turned when the joke was accepted widely in country and the electorate decided to genuinely nominate Zelenskyi (or rather the beloved Holoborod’ko) for President. It was quite a joke of Zelenskyi to take part in the election campaign. It is in fact a political satire on the current reality of Ukraine. (Largely because he made an emotional speech recorded and posted to internet.) The show is very popular in Ukraine and the third season is on air right now.

Volodymyr Zelenskyi created a TV show called Public Servant about an ordinary school teacher, Holoborod’ko, who somehow ended up being nominated for the president of Ukraine.

Volodymyr Zelenskyi (Vladimir Zelensky in Russian transcription) is a very successful comic actor and show producer who created many popular shows including the recent Science Fiction series Starnauts. In addition to part of it being invaded by Russia, its domestic politics have itself taken something of an SFnal turn with the post-modern subversion of its political system by a fictional character. Having said that our eastern European team members are amazed at goings on in the Ukraine. (The only exception being a single item on how book publishers are preparing for Brexit.) Fortunately for us, and possibly you, the below news page is a largely Brexit-free summation of the season's SF and science news. It is arguably fair to say that regarding the public, whichever side folk are on, everyone agrees that the politicians simply do not have grip on matters and are failing the people.
Meanwhile in the real world here in Blighty Brexit has turned the news into some weird, Kafkaesque monster born of Orwell's Ministry of Truth. (It is also more substantive that the one already existing at the .) Having said that, we arguably own an apology to the Science Fiction Encyclopaedia as it was actually a few years ago one of their staff members requested information on Concatenation and this has only now just been provided… The entry can be found at /entry/science_fact_and_science_fiction_concatenation. This surely is something of a coming-of-age moment for little old 32-year old SF² Concatenation. SF² Concatenation now has an entry in the Science Fiction Encyclopaedia.
