SCIENCE FICTION

“The man who comes back through the Door in the Wall will never be quite the same as the man who went out. He will be wiser but less sure, happier but less self-satisfied, humbler in acknowledging his ignorance yet better equipped to understand the relationship of words to things, of systematic reasoning to the unfathomable mystery which it tries, forever vainly, to comprehend”

― Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception

Science fiction in tribute 

to the Hammerhead Shark:

Kubrick and the Spinning Bone of Media and warfare

is a Marshall McLuhan meme via James Joyce.  The Monolith is Kubrick's succinct representation of the infinite container of human potential as a black mirror containing our self worth and our narcissism.  Time is absorbed by light and every extension of humanity gets its moment in The Sun.
