Introduction

“A new epoch has dawned upon Mankind, an age where science and technology rules supreme, an era where machines have taken over the menial chores of Mankind, a period when we could no longer imagine a day cut off from the wonders of technological progress. So, let us now let loose our imagination and take a step into the Frankenstein complex”

Indeed, since the advent of the Enlightenment movement and the Industrial Revolution, technology has become an integral part of our lives. While we enjoy the higher standards of living technology has brought to us, many still have an innate mistrust or even dread of technology. This inherent fear and repulsion towards technology has always rooted in Man's psyche, manifesting in both popular culture and in our social behaviour. Our team seeks to investigate the cause of this inherent fear through cross-examination of film and contemporary sci-fi literature and analyse what they reflect about societal mindset towards technocracy and ethics in science.    


Look around the site to gain some background information and or plunge straight into our discussion of controversial issues on ethics and technocracy. Alternatively, you choose to read our fully-illustrated novella, a short story that will not only excite your senses but set you thinking.
