Time Aerials

A Time Travel Diversion

Beschreibung

TIME MACHINES BREAK REALITY. SEVERAL TIMES… The time aerial seizes Harry’s mind and flings him into the past—but to the wrong time. He tries to set things right, but unleashes a catastrophe. The debonair Richard arrives—but he is stalked from the future. Reality breaks—but the universe fights back. Extirpators hover. The girl in black knows more than she should. Squamaflies swarm. Rose drinks at the Bad Luck Café. And someone hides in the Mind Library. Time Aerials is a frame-story where books change, and stories mutate. Where minds leak into time, and precognition drives the evolution of consciousness. Where characters shuttle across the page and fall off the edge. An elegiac and multi-layered meditation on death and consciousness. And time. So grab the arms of your chair. Stare at the shimmering aerial. And prepare for a bumpy ride.

Autor

Russell Kightley is a scientific illustrator, writer, and fashion designer. He studied graphic design in the late 70s. In 1981 he worked in traditional hospital-based medical illustration, using pen and ink and water colour-well before computers became commonplace in design. Then came a long stint in university-based medical video production (including two years at Stanford University in the early 80's). His first award was a CINE Golden Eagle in 1984 while working at Stanford; 39 more awards followed for the videos that he worked on-35 of those were for videos that he directed, including Gold at Worldfest Houston, and Silver at the British Medical Association. He has worked for many years as a scientific illustrator. In 2016 he began creating designer scarves. He has been writing science fiction for several years.
