science fiction

The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

Tight Fit - Chapter 1
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Ray Turner remembers this phrase over and over again, on loop, as he quickly gathers himself from bed to answer the Major Brigadier’s urgent 4AM distress call.

The Second Space Race
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. In fact, they’re banking on it. It was around the turn of the millennium that the second space race started. The ultra-wealthy – the moguls, the royals, the oligarchs – mainly men, competing against each other about whose rocket ship is bigger – and stronger, and faster, and better, and carbon-neutral, of course. They had already conquered the seas with their superyachts, the skies with their private jets, and society with their economic and political clout and corruption. Space was next.

Entropy's Last Dance
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Entropy dances outward, ever expanding. The grand illusion is order and form, when everything is actually descending into chaos. If they could hear, if their consciousness was really expanding, they would hear the screaming. For some of us, there is not an illusion at all. They do not hear the agony I experience as I shift from nothing into something, as form breathes out of me just to explode again into particles and light. The humans balk at something being both things simultaneously. They do not yet realize there are creatures that are not just in two places at once, but everywhere all at once, existing only to give them the illusion of order. Blinking our consciousness from place to place, we lend form and energy to their experiences at our expense.

Apollo's Heir
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Hers still echoes through his dreams. Over pitch waves and under unlit sky.

Space Oddity
No one can hear the screams in the vacuum of space, or so they say. And as I float there, screaming, I realized they were wrong.

Cerebos: The New World
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. I was among the first people to see her body. Barely warm, the color drained from her cheeks and lips made her the ghost of who my sister was. Her black hair stuck to her forehead; her brown eyes glossed over as I foolishly waited for her to cry to me. But she wouldn’t. She couldn’t.

CIRCLING CHAOS
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Althea had been told not to go off the ship, she had been warned. The consequences would be dire but she couldn’t stay away; the stairs called to her, beckoning her to have a look, that’s all—just one simple look.

Another Animal
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. A scream still travels from inside a ship and over radio waves, though. Beigna’s scream split through my snoopy cap and rattled my ear drums. The charred panel I was dislodging snapped off at my startled force and slammed into my helmet visor before tumbling along the edge of the ship until it disappeared into space.

Mirrored
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. A voice-less world, shared by nothing but solitude. A place of contemplation, a place to reflect. What better agony than the doubt of my place. All alone, voice unheard, nobody watching, existence uncertain. Tell me, am I alive because you can hear me scream?

Star Seeds
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That didn’t stop me from trying. I screamed like a piglet being taken from the teet. I screamed like a cyber metal singer at the height of their epic song. I screamed like a 12 year old at the beginning drop of a skycoaster. I screamed as I realized the seriousness of my situation.

Jove's Heart
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Aboard a nice, pressurized spacecraft like the Fulminus, however, anybody can.

ESCAPED
ESCAPED Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say, but they are wrong. I heard the screams as they were sucked into the void. I remember like it was yesterday and I don't imagine that I will ever make it back.
