He Came From Planet Bathos

Some might question my claim to geekhood on the grounds that I have never read Tolkein or Herbert. Frank Herbert’s Dune is frequently described as the best science fiction novel ever. Over the past few weeks I have been reading a little bit more of it every evening before going to sleep. Whatever else it [...]

Dew: a Drop of Hope or a Stark Warning of Things to Come?

Anyone who has read the exquisite Dune novels from Frank Herbert will remember the dew collectors. Pits filled with ovals of plastic, cooling in the night and condensing moisture from the air to provide basic sustenance. Coming from such a lush green place, as I did, it was hard to imagine a more alien existence. That was a fabricated world from the mind of a science fiction genius. It seems though,...

Elixir’s Flood

When writing the other day of the 1989 Fargo flood, and its terrible successor in 1997, I neglected to mention a curious detail. As the waters rose in 1989, I was working on the final chapters of Elixir, my sci-fi homage and prequel to Frank Herbert’s Dune. I had worked out the plot many months [...]

Slashdot’s Disagree Mail Comments: 227

A little history: Before ENIAC was engineered, a “computer” was a human being whose job was to do math, e.g. making ballistics tables for artillery, etc.During WWII the military employed hundreds, perhaps thousands, of human computers.Frank herbert called them “Mentats”.BTW and OT, the black on dark green on this screen is unreadable to geezers (and possibly to young people as well).

Frank Herbert and the Five-Ring Circus

I was leafing through Frank Herbert's wonderful (and, let us be honest, frequently tiresome) Dune the other day, in between heats of the swimming competition on NBC and the network's adoring description of the Chinese train to Tibet and the Three Gorges Dam. Whatever made my eyes linger on this quote? In honor of the na-Baron's nativity and to remind all Harkonnens and subjects that Feyd-Rautha was...

Dune: A Socio-Political Critique

I just finished re-reading Frank Herbert’s most famous work, Dune . A bit of a guilty pleasure that, since I am supposed to be working on a case for my International Accounting class, having to due with currency exchange translation causing a profitable enterprise to become a losing one, but I tell myself that the diversion makes my mind fresh for the academic work. Which I will do … later. Anyway,...

Berg reveals Dune vision

What's also surprising is that Berg may be trying to avoid the political subplot that the story offers, particularly in this current climate....Visit Filmstalker for...
