About this Item
Flash Forward , An Illustrated Guide to Possible (And Not So Possible) Tomorrows - Eveleth Rose *** [EN] Categories: English Language | Binding: Hardcover | An exploration of potential tomorrows from the host of the massively popular and critically acclaimed podcast Flash Forward. Flash Forward: An Illustrated Guide to Possible (And Not So Possible) Tomorrows takes readers on a journey from speculative fiction to speculative "fact." Producer and host of the podcast Flash Forward, Rose Eveleth poses provocative questions about our future, which are brought to life by 12 of the most imaginative comics and graphic artists at work, including Matt Lubchanksy, Sophie Goldstein, Ben Passmore, and Box Brown. Each artist chooses a subject close to their heart-Ignatz Award nominee Julia Gfroerer, for instance, will imagine a future in which robots make art-and presents their chosen future in their own style. Drawing on her interviews with experts in various fields of study, Eveleth will then report on what is complete fantasy and what is only just out of reach in insightful essays following the comics. This book introduces compelling visions of the future and vividly explores the human consequences of developing technologies. Flash Forward reveals how complicated, messy, incredible, frightening, and strange our future might be. *** [DE] Einband: Gebundene Ausgabe | Eine Erkundung potenzieller Zukünfte vom Moderator des äußerst beliebten und von der Kritik gefeierten Podcasts Flash Forward. Flash Forward: Ein illustrierter Leitfaden zu möglichen (und nicht so möglichen) Zukünften nimmt die Leser mit auf eine Reise von spekulativer Fiktion zu spekulativen "Fakten?. Die Produzentin und Moderatorin des Podcasts Flash Forward, Rose Eveleth, stellt provokante Fragen über unsere Zukunft, die von 12 der fantasievollsten Comic- und Grafikkünstler zum Leben erweckt werden, darunter Matt Lubchanksy, Sophie Goldstein, Ben Passmore und Box Brown. Jeder Künstler wählt ein Thema, das ihm am Herzen liegt - die für den Ignatz Award nominierte Julia Gfroerer wird zum Beispiel eine Zukunft imaginieren, in der Roboter Kunst schaffen - und präsentiert seine gewählte Zukunft in seinem eigenen Stil. Basierend auf ihren Interviews mit Experten aus verschiedenen Studienbereichen wird Eveleth dann in aufschlussreichen Essays, die den Comics folgen, berichten, was reine Fantasie ist und was nur knapp außer Reichweite liegt. Dieses Buch stellt fesselnde Visionen der Zukunft vor und erforscht lebhaft die menschlichen Konsequenzen sich entwickelnder Technologien. Flash Forward enthüllt, wie kompliziert, chaotisch, unglaublich, beängstigend und seltsam unsere Zukunft sein könnte. *** [CZ] Vazba: vazane | An exploration of potential tomorrows from the host of the massively popular and critically acclaimed podcast Flash Forward Flash Forward: An Illustrated Guide to Possible (And Not So Possible) Tomorrows takes readers on a journey from speculative fiction to speculative "fact."
