Baffling, depressing. George Miller's legacy is in part built on his commitment to practical effects, to loving attention to production, to encouraging and empowering human beings to painstakingly create items of beauty.

Now he's defending slop.

‘AI is here to stay and change things’: Mad Max director George Miller on why he is taking part in an AI film festival
The director believes AI has made film-making ‘way more egalitarian’ – and is set to lead the judges at Omni AI film festival in Australia

Review time. Thank you, Jason Nahrung ❤️
The End Times of Markusz Zielinski, by Keith Stevenson – a race to the end Novel Title: The End Times of Markusz Zielinski Author: Keith Stevenson Publisher: self-published @ https://www.keithstevenson.com/books/end-times/ In which the Australian writer and publisher turns from the enjoyable space opera of his Lenticular books to harder science fiction, portraying the mad scramble to save a last outpost of life from a collapsing universe. Once again, Stevenson provides a living culture, enough details of the factions and entities to make the world believable without bogging down in details. Indeed, there’s not much room for minutiae, as the story unfolds apace, the conflict driven by a political agenda of greed, ego and self-interest. The titular Markusz, a mathematician who may just be able to save what’s left if given the chance, has the clever foil of a ‘ghost’ of his dead wife as well as a strong supporting cast to contextualise the science clearly enough to allow the reader to follow along. And then there’s the question of the strange haven deep within the planet itself, and the mysterious connection to the force devouring the universe. It’s a blast.

Meet the cast of The End Times of Markusz Zielinski #EndTimesMZ
1/3
Markusz Zielinski Tom Hiddleston A casual observer would opine that Markusz thinks a lot of himself. It’s an observation Markusz would agree with while pointing out that such high self-regard is entirely justified as he is not only a proven (and verified) mathematical genius but was instrumental in developing the only known method of saving the universe. The same observer would also note that Markusz loves his wife Helena deeply. Markusz would again agree. She makes him a better person. Helena Murchadh Tuppence Middleton A brilliant applied mathematician, physicist and engineer, Helena rose quicky through the ranks of the M-Worlds Cooperative Sciences and Technology Organisation to become Chief Engineer for the CSTO Task Force on the Effect. Noted for her significant work in identifying the anisotropic nexus of Effect events, she also works closely with Markusz Zielinski, who she fell in love with, despite his ability to annoy the hell out of everyone else on the Task Force. She was the only one to see his potential and it was their collaboration which laid the foundations for the annulus. Sylfe Cachand Clémence Poésy Sylfe, like her younger sister Yvette, was born through parthenogenesis. Her mother told her at an early age to, ‘respect herself and not be boring’. She’s determined not to be the stereotypical head of a Paradisan company (she heads up SolEng SA, which specialises in stellar engineering for M-Worlds), or a stereotypical anything for that matter. She has a deep understanding of stellar physics, a keen head for business and anyone who crosses her will live to regret it. But other than that, anything goes. The average and normal bores her – in herself as much as in others.

What if you could save the universe? Markusz Zielinski is trying, but what with being sacked, imprisoned, freed, kidnapped and threatened with death, no-one's making it easy for him. Trapped in the middle of a factional struggle for dominance on the last planet, it's up to Markusz to save everyone despite themselves. Only problem is, he may be losing his grip on reality.

Simon Petrie is one of my favourite science fiction authors working in Australia today. A self-described ‘reformed academic’, he has a special interest in planetary and interstellar chemistry, which means his written work often includes
