Look at the Real Life Section

...Okay.

I guess one could say I am working on a universe, a project, that is heavily based off of reality...and mythology...
Goals would be:
1) Depict a mix of natural order and natural possibility. Where yes, horror happens, there is a random chance you are devoured by Giant Purple People Eaters, but no matter the situation, there is always further exploration to be had. A world that is governed by quantum mechanics, evolution, nuclear chemistry, and relativity...tested. Which leads us to:
2) Test the limits of science/mathematics/reason...against fantasy/ritual/creativity. What mutations could be explored to relate to creatures of myth? How much can science and magic mix? What is the real difference between the two?

And...no such witty transition here...

3) Display inventions/designs/techniques that while, yes, I know few came to fruition, could be akin to "Steampunk" for the 19th century...and depict (as background) different leaderships and issues with them.

4) Retell some of the more forgotten stories, and put twists on more common ones.

5) Encourage the reader to look up and do research, to get involved in the subjects broached.

6) (Possible - just realized while thinking on this): Most of my tales (Ideas/small snippets...need to focus on one and get it done) could occur in the same universe, just in vastly different times...

Anyway, that was me rambling about my goals/ideas with writing. I'm adding a section on Gibb's research on Aviator's Cone of Vision. Then, Imma passing out for a good 3-4 hours.


In pre-scientific times, all of the modern sciences, all forms of industry, and the very laws of nature itself were considered to be magic.
