sci-fi master joe haldeman was in sansar in his avatar embodiment, based on a sketch drawn by himself [not only does he write and draw – joe also plays the bass-clarinet and the tenor sax in a variety of scenarios including dixieland!!]

a fabulous conversation about war, hemingway, time travel and heinlein. oh yes and we touch on movies too! enjoy:

and now – as per usual – more to read/watch/contemplate on this and other subjects:

• the unedited livestream with joe from sansar:

• joe haldeman’s “the forever war” has an important place in my bookshelf alongside authors such as remarque and heller …

• “the forever war” is available as a graphic novel [in case we need to wait another 40 + years for the movie version …]

• i have never seen robotjox – directed by stuart gordon & written by joe haldeman – but damn the trailer looks awesome:

• my fave haldeman? “the hemingway hoax” no doubt!

• on a different note = alumnus of #draxtorreads, tim maughan, has stepped into his own book and i had to reply with a clip from his recent visit [full show >>> https://draxfiles.com/2019/11/18/show-236-infinite-detail/]

• checking in with other things in sansar: i am glad our friend loki eliot distills our #114harvest weekly fieldtrips to one less than 60 sec clip essence:
