LohikäärmeradioJakso 44 - Täyteläiset, elinvoimaiset ja hieman rusahtavat - Mytologiat fantasiakirjallisuudessaKunnianhimoisina fantasiakirjallisuuden asiantuntijoina otimme jakson aiheeksi jotain mahdollisimman laajaa ja kaikenkattavaa: muinaiset ja nykyiset mytologiat ja kansantarut! Miten ne näkyvät fantasiakirjallisuudessa ja kuinka niitä kerrotaan uudestaan ja uudestaan?
Valitettavasti elinaikamme rajallisuus iski vastaan ja jouduimme karsimaan mytologioiden joukosta muutaman mantereen ja 99.9% eri uskonnoista. Mukaan mahtui siitä huolimatta huomattavan paljon kuunneltavaa, josta osa ei liity aiheeseen mitenkään. Jakso sopii siis kaikille uskontokannasta riippumatta ja on erittäin opettavainen, vaikka välillä harhaudummekin kaikenlaisiin kaninkoloihin ja erikoisille sivuraiteille.

(Robert A. Heinlein) Many landscape designers know their plants and paving and might creatively layout a patio, visualize a landform or know the soil, but how can one really sense the true “spirit” within the landscape? Thinking about this, I have been drawn to researching the myriad cryptic arts, ancient beliefs about plant systems and mysterious philosophies that can inform and open up our thinking about what landscape designers do. We have built a number of award winning garden exhibits for the NW Flower & Garden Show centered upon ideas such as these, from...2022-08-1812 min

Design TomorrowThe Future vs. The FutureEvery vision of the future is a better index of the present from which it came than whatever time it imagines. So today, let's look back at some of the things we believed would serve as landmarks of the future. Not to point out how quaint they are or to dunk on the blind spots of the past. But so that we can better understand why — no matter what shiny new objects we make and use — we never quite feel like we've gotten to the future.

Imaginary WorldsFaith in FantasyScience fiction has not always been compatible with religion -- in fact many futuristic settings imagine no religion at all.
