Analog is an SF short film. Personally, it wasn’t my style, but I tend to get grumpy if a film is too experimental. For those of you who enjoy atmospheric experimental SF films that leave a lot of the story to inference, this is for you.

Mikko Kunninen’s art is awesome and yet somehow depressing in its presentation of a highly technologized existence that is completely devoid of plants and animals. That said, they are spaceships in space, so perhaps I am overthinking things.
Bryant Koshu has some very thrilling images on his portfolio on CGHub. Go look at them and appreciate them as I do.

A beautiful movie poster for the classic SF film Journey to the Seventh Planet. The imagery calls up all the classic tropes of SF – bug eyed aliens, square jawed spacemen battling them.
I am intrigued by the poster’s invitation to ‘Travel X times faster than my imagination.’ Solving for X might be a challenge.

I am a big fan of John Berkey’s paintings, though the prices are very much out of my range. The images bespeak a space-borne industrial capacity that would make our current global industry look like a craft fair. In some ways I see ventures like asteroid mining as baby steps to our grandchildren working in awesome structures like the one above.

Moebius, otherwise known as Jean Giraud, passed away last month. When I was a teenage comic collector I held one of the graphic novels he illustrated as my most prized possession (Moebius 1: Upon a Star – I still own it).
Concept Ships has a gorgeous collection of some of his artworks, well worth a visit.
