The Tranhumanist Cult Test. I put through the 8-point test to determine if it is a cult. See what you think. ewanmorrison.substack.com/p/the-tranhu...

“Welcome to the Useless Class”: @mrewanmorrison.bsky.social in conversation with @irvinewelsh.bsky.social www.huckmag.com/article/for-...

Given the sheer volume of contemporary Scottish writers who seem to be intent on not addressing the elephant(s) in the room, all I can say is, thank f*** for @mrewanmorrison.bsky.social and @irvinewelsh.bsky.social 👏 www.huckmag.com/article/for-...

"total care society": "Your life micromanaged by narrow AI systems that don’t understand your need for questions and human contact and the unknown. Your language planned, your sexual partner pre-assessed, your food and travel limited" @mrewanmorrison.bsky.social www.huckmag.com/article/for-...

Are people leaving Blue Sky or does it have a bot problem? Are you seeing these kinds of deleted accounts in your inbox too?

After they erase the truth . . . what then? 56 days until publication of FOR EMMA. (the video is 22 seconds - turn on the volume)

We are driven by technological progress, but what is driving it? Is it an evolutionary force? Is it a force independent of us, that ultimately does not care for us? Can we resist tech progress? Do we have a choice? Your thoughts appreciated. A little video, turn on the volume please.

Check out 'Detox' by @mrewanmorrison.bsky.social -- a short story about one man's attempt to quit alcohol. Conveys both the humour and pain so well -- it's writing of the highest quality. urbanpigspress.co.uk/2025/01/05/d... #shortstories #addiction #thenewyou @urbanpigspress.bsky.social

Hey Folks, Video launch. Here's the trailer for my new novel FOR EMMA. It's a techno-gothic thriller about love, loss & fighting back against the Big Tech overlords. It's published on 25 March 2025 with Leamington Books. Turn up the volume and enjoy. Love to hear your thoughts. Cheers.

Friends concerned about AI - this is the article by the dead Open AI whistleblower Suchir Balaji - explaining why the scraping of media & data by AI does not constitute “fair use”. The entire industry is based on the lie of “fair use”. Save this: suchir.net/fair_use.html

Just as @mrewanmorrison.bsky.social was ahead of the field with pandemic fiction and novels about ideological capture, so he is the pioneer of AI literature in Scotland. Terrifying, engrossing, masterful. The most inventive and original writer we have.

@ianrankin1.bsky.social old school cinematic trailer for FOR EMMA by Ewan Morrison launches on YouTube! Thank you so much for your support and early endorsement of this literary belter Ian. youtu.be/dgoa41NJkOU

Conundrum: Once Elon Musk is working in the US Govt & has access to NASA files - what if he discovers that the moon landings were staged? Would he: (1) Cancel his plans for Mars colonies? (2) Come clean to the public? (3) Hush it up & keep pushing his Mars project? Pics: Capricorn 1, 1979

An AI-based publisher that appears to have been founded by four iterations of the same attempt to create an 'annoying wanker' on Dall-E.

"Protect and Survive"(1975). All 20 short public information films on surviving nuclear attack. The series was "classified material" intended for transmission on all TV channels only if the UK government determined that nuclear attack was likely within 72 hours. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkOc...

The "Duck and Cover" animation was widely distributed to U.S. school children throughout the 1950s and was designed to educate children about atomic attack. www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5rN...

Thought for 2025: Writers and artists - if you're going to have a portrait done - go all in. Here is the great László Krasznahorkai.

"So hold me, Mom, in your long arms. In your automatic arms. Your electronic arms. In your arms. So hold me, Mom, in your long arms. Your petrochemical arms. Your military arms. In your electronic arms." "O Superman" - Laurie Anderson, 1981.

What a fine thing, to have a 24 year long collaboration between a novelist and a filmmaker. Together the Hungarians Bela Tarr and László Krasznahorkai made: Damnation, Sátántangó, Werckmeister Harmonies, The Man from London & The Turin Horse - & forged their own aesthetic.
