Friday Post Part 1 -Music, Art, Comics, and Other Cool.

I Have lot of great stuff to look through today so I'll have to break this into two parts.

Music
Sci Fi Songs has a cool new song "The Diamond Age"

An "electronic instrumental that was inspired by Neal Stephenson's The Diamond Age: Or, a Young Lady's Illustrated Primer . I tried to convey the novel's feeling of the "Victorian age of the future" by combining the sounds of traditonal orchestral string instruments (supplied by my software's sampler), with the more futuristic sounds of synthesizers and electronic percussion."

This is the 12th "Sci-Fi Song" which sounds like a good number to burn to a CD. Available in MP3 HERE.





Art
Golden Age Comic Book Stories has a gallery of pulp magazine covers -mostly adventure, but a few science fiction ones.

Dark Worlds interviews artist M. D. Jackson. Included are a few great examples of Jackson's fantasy artwork, most of which expand to nearly wallpaper size there.

Nostalgic G continues its Star Trek week with a guest editorial "Star Trek Enterprise: An appreciation"

Personally I think the show was a bit underrated, but was hurt by being too serial. Star Trek shows work best when they're episodic -imho.

The article is online HERE.



And SFFaudio is having its "Third Annual SFFaudio Challenge." The rules are fairly simple and fun, if you have some free time and aren't too shy about your voice.
