Science Fiction is the Realism of Our Time - Kim Stanley Robinson

[@Eckendenker]

He must be one of the most inspiring authors I have ever read

I just got done reading Red Moon, fantastic book. This guy is an exceptional author.

It's so interesting that there is almost no mention of space or a moon base etc in Ministry for the future. The total absence of space exploration and asteroid extraction is very loud and a message in and of itself.

Excellent interview- very evocative locale for the video.

A gravel quarry... even in TMftF they needed gravel. : )))))

Ironic how even this pristine landscape which Kim is being interviewed in we can’t seem to escape the world - even in the distance you can make out smokestacks and factory buildings.

Cool to see Stan outside :)

KSR wasn't looking for new mountains in Denmark, was he? Given this vid's 'front' picture. : )))))))
