Dead Darlings: The Prometheus and Your Technology essay
This was an essay on Prometheus‘ treatment of technology and how, in science fiction, we’ve transitioned from needing blunt futuristic images into a more organic shell. After a few edits, we were all sort of stilled on it but the core of the idea is what fascinates me so much about Prometheus. It works better as an ideal than calling it a prequel.
In a weird way, Ridley Scott rebooted the Alien universe. Anyway, a whirlwind of words follow.
