Description: A play by Charles Dickens. The Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland. A hologram of a famous dead pop singer. They’re all connected by a simple magic trick called Pepper’s Ghost. What’s most remarkable about this illusion is that it hasn’t changed much in over 160 years. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
Description: Our culture is going through a Gothic Revival, partly thanks to the influence of Tim Burton. Gothic literature may have thrived in the 19th century but a lot of contemporary writers are returning to the tradition, creating stories that reimagine the past or look at the present through a Gothic lens. Fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
Description: Who wouldn’t want a fairy godmother to solve our problems with the flick of a magic wand? We know that’s not a healthy fantasy and yet, fairy godmothers aren’t going away. In fact, they’ve been proliferating in contemporary fantasy novels and reinterpretations of Cinderella. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
Description: Over three decades ago, Doug Naylor co-created a sitcom called Red Dwarf about the last human left alive in the far future. But the character is not alone. The rest of the crew aboard the ship Red Dwarf includes an annoying hologram, a very helpful android, a very unhelpful A.I. and a cat-person with a great sense of style. The show was considered a huge gamble back then. Sci-fi and comedy were not supposed to mix. But Red Dwarf was a hit. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.

Description: Magic: The Gathering has a deep mythology about an infinite number of parallel worlds. As Magic celebrates its 25th anniversary, we look at why this handheld card game has survived the onslaught of competition from digital games, and how the designers at Wizards of the Coast create a sense of story and worldbuilding within a non-sequential card game. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
Description: Imagine you're a New Yorker in the mid 22nd century. You have to deal with all sorts of headaches like traffic jams on the East River or brownstones collapsing into the canals. People think you're crazy to live in this Super Venice, but you wouldn't want to be anywhere else. That's the world Kim Stanley Robinson imagines in his latest novel New York 2140. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
Description: EVE Online is a massive multi-player online role playing game, a galaxy where you build space ships, form alliances and go to war. The war stories of EVE players are remarkable, like the Bloodbath of B-R5RB, where over $350,000 worth of digital spaceships were destroyed in a single day. Episode fan art by Sean C. Jackson.
