and genre fiction. some people look down on genre fiction, better than any writers on this planet since jon, who was another one of my favorites. we're going to talk wide-ranging about a lot of things these men have written about in think about. but i am going to start with the issue of genre, because we're not exactly all crime pays at the same time and in the same way, the same category. i'm going to start with my dear friend rick patterson, notice richard north to many of you. i would like you to talk about what you started to write actually rick, scott and i are all lawyers first and then became writers. rick is not writing crime fiction. i love to be called a crime writer. he would shoot me if i said here's a crime novelist. so why don't you open this with by telling us what you do now and your book swap fever is in the bookstore down the road. >> i'm now concluded after the election of 2016, taking is redundant.

fiction. and of course now we know bill cosby, bill: cosby's own life has underscored the separation between the televisual reality and how things are in the world. so whether he's talking about the cosby show or road warrior, or hip-hop, pop culture becomes a way of filtering out the world and going through the motions and that i guess i had to exaggerate the story to make it interesting, because it's my family which was a proud family of movie watching folks .. it was so rare that the black press would tell you when you would be on tv. >> host: we have talked for an hour with colson whitehead. we have had a lot of people. >> guest: are you kicking me off? >> host: there kicking me off! more poorly we are getting american involved. we have a phone call >> we will begin with a phone call from charles albuquerque new mexico. >> caller: you don't have to thank me for my patients i really enjoy listening to the show but colton whitehead thank you for opening up to let us have a view into that mag

i'm always happy when someone describes my fiction generates. the form i use which makes disparate stories and picking up areas the reader might have dismissed or might not have insight it reminds us other people have whether we want to do this or not. i always hear myself quoting my mother who like many others found occasions to remind me you're not the only pillow on the beach. [laughter] it's sorit sort of sounds diffeo me now. when i was little of course i would say i know that but now i think we never really know and it is fiction's job to remind us that sustains everything but its basic equipment. we needed this at this moment as we resist the tribalism and self-serving viciousness that is all around us, so this is a great night for me and i thank you all.

typically historical fiction is you go to a real place with fictional characters. all quiet on the western front, the red badge of courage. it's an accurate historical section but the people are made up. that's a little different form what i do because i take you tothese places with a lot of the real people . significant historical figures, names you know. george washington, blackjack purging, dwight eisenhower but it's fiction by definition because i'm putting words in their mouth. my job is to tell you a story and a way to do that is not just do it like a textbook would, names, places, facts and figures that put you into the heads of the characters and tell you the story the way they would tell it. by definition that has to be called fiction. your hearing dialogue, your hearing words in their mouths and part of that is drawn from historical record but then you have to fill in the blanks and that's my job is to fill in the blanks by definition that has to be called fiction. if i've done my research , the history is absolutely accurate and that's my job, to tell yo

and non—fiction and plays, so what do you see yourself as, an actor or a writer? i quite like the fact that i do both, and in fact i'm an artist as well, i paint and draw. a lot of the illustrations are in the books. it's sort of because i have quite a restless personality and i'm a workaholic. so just one of those things wouldn't be quite enough to feed my habit. it's good to be able to keep going between the three. does the writing and painting and acting, do they complement each other? yes, well, the drawing and sketching, i do when i'm developing a character to try and work out how they might look or even how they might feel. and the writing, well, in the theatre journals, it is a diary adapted from my diary, and ifind doing a diary every day very cathartic. you offload all the stuff that might be troubling you or indeed exciting you about the work, so they do weave into one another. so here you are, keeping this diary as you embark on what you yourself say is one of the most challenging roles you have ever played. for people who don't know king lear that well

science—fiction films have predicted in the future we would have intelligent robots.was robby. good night, doctor smith. and robots in lost in space. how close are we to having something like them now? meet the soccer playing robots of the university of texas. they are not being operated by remote control. instead they're making fast moving decisions as a team on their own. that's because they've been programmed with artificial intelligence. they're able to learn from their mistakes and improve their game each time they play. they are honing their skills for the robot world cup, this one from two years ago in leipzig. football is far harder for computers than chess or other boardgames. rather than turn—taking, everybody‘s moving at the same time. if you take too long to think about what you're going to do when you're going to pass the ball the opponents can come and take the ball away from you. it's also continuous, there's not discreet places people can be, but always moving through air, space, continuous space, so there's really many challenges in contrast to some o

see, this might get to your fiction/nonfiction. if you see this propaganda for different reasons by different emperors, it might explain a lot of the fiction/nonfiction aspects. >> host: thank you, sir. >> guest: yeah, it's a good question, and the truth is that according to evidence we have a lot of gaps in the record. there's a lot of things we just can't know. but there's a lot of ideas that we can discuss. so, you know, the writings themselves will, you know, talk as if sort of, you know, contemporaneous history. until we get to the dead sea scrolls, we really don't find those writings, specific evidence. those are our earliest evidence for the writings, so we have to extrapolate back about what can we know, what can't we know. so it's complicated. and certainly, different people are going to have different ideas. you have jews that are going to take early dating in the hebrew bible as well as late dating. both of the new testament, early dating, late dating, also the old testament, so it's a very complicated topic. and i think

pulp fiction had to make do with a single oscar for best original screenplay. remember oscar so white the half tank starred in protest out of the twenty sixteen oscars highlighted the long history of discrimination and exclusion of minorities from the academy awards the campaign. the academy its membership now is much more diverse as are the oscar nominees but way back in one thousand nine hundred the academy had the chance to do the right thing and author a groundbreaking film from an african american director but they blew it. director spike lee plays movies like pizza delivery boy in this blistering masterpiece about racism in the united states. going to. we're going to work back to the man oh all right all right dr. always do the right thing. that's it that's it i got it i'm got. smart and funny the snap approach to editing the film starts out like a comedy. but is this hot summer in new york tensions are on the rise in movies boss south finally loses his cool the result is carnage. it's not clear if anyone does the right thing but this was the right film a

what exactly is historical fiction? >> well, i've actually had this conversation with other authors. typically, historical fiction, you go to a real place with fictitious characters. for example, all quiet on the western front. it is an accurate historical setting but the people are totally made up. that is a little bit different from what i do. because i take you to these places with a lot of the real people. the plsignificant historical figures. many that you know where there is george washington, robert e lee -- but it is fiction because i am putting words in your mouth. my job as a tell you a story. the way to do that is not just like a textbook or names, dates, and figures. it is to put you into the heads of the characters and tell you the story the way they would tell it. by definition it has to be called fiction. this is dialogue, words in their mouths and part of that is drawn from historical record but then you have to fill in the blanks. that is my job. to fill in the blanks. by definition it has to be called

in science fiction films scientists breathe life into machines. you want to meet. many neuroscientists researches and robotics experts today are on a quest to create an artificial brain modeled on the human brain they believe it's within the realm of possibility that the information inside our brains can be extracted and transferred to a machine that will then replace us. the brain is a kind of machine and machines are things that you can analyze and understand and represent in mathematics and recreate you can build other versions of it. we are white a program our soul use our program in a hundred years we will know how to upload peoples minds into computers because scientists really on cost to one locking the mysteries of the human brain in a way that will enable them to build one just like it one day. our journey begins anew circa inside one man's imagination she roshi ishiguro was a science fiction fan and robotics expert who's exploring what it takes to be human . he started replication himself by building an android that will live forever. christian body is no

the legal fiction of military necessity and the legal fiction of temporality.as far as military necessity is concerned, the idea is that it is taking the land in order to create military encampments and all of the civilian presence is temporary. obviously that's a contradiction on its face because you don't face civilians and military contentment otherwise you're using your own civilians as human shields. or it is, in fact, per minute. that is, the first legal fiction. the second legal fiction of temporality is what the military adjutant general and then chief justice for the israeli high court produced two decades described as temporality. it's a temporary presence of the civilians but it is not which is indefinite, which is the opposite of permanent, meaning that it is not permanent but we do not have to declare and into it and that is the opposite of permanency. and, therefore, can be temporary. that is a legal fiction. but these legal fictions survive because the law in and of itself, and especially international law, lacking a hierarchical adjudication sys

added a series on food studies and science fiction. it is healthy and imaginative. and the most serious problem was the most rapid consolidation of publishing industry which accepted every part of our work from acquisition of books and journals through production, distribution and sales. and commercial publishers of academic journals, making big promises to journal editors, promises that ended up doubling and tripling the prices for subscribers. most of them library facing challenges of their own. our general managers far off the competition successfully, very successfully and built the illinois journal program in the best in the country. in the 1990s, barnes & noble and borders drove the smaller bookstores out of business. they had to fend off an even larger competitor, amazon, the world's largest bookstore. amazon became the largest customer, amazon to the weight around like a giant it is making demands about shipping, billing and discounts that demanded close attention. libraries consolidated, small and midsized libraries ceased to buy copies of our book that rel

back to fiction. the fort also played an important role in popular fiction at the time. what the fortne was to charles dickens. it was love a steel --la bastille and the tale of two cities. there is an italian writer who wrote a book in which a young officer is posted to a on the upon a miss -0 eoponymous frontier, and he spends his time waiting for the moment when he can gloriously defend the stronghold. when the attack finally comes, he is too old to answer the call. i imagine also the honeycomb casemate's we see at fort knox. they remind me artistically of the italian engraver. this idea that these structures are prisons resonates because -- aan was a common on commandent of two different p.o.w. prisons. one can only imagine the effects this had on the diffident, sensitive, down easter. it was certainly not a duty he relished. in 1864, eastman took command of ,ort mifflin on the delaware below philadelphia. open as anow as public park and is under constant restoration and improvement. it is impossible to see this the area wheree he stood is now overgrown. but he would
