{"product_id":"night_sky-mehita-iqani-9781928502920","title":"Night_sky: FicSci 02","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat is science communication? This collection proposes that it can be creative writing aimed at the heart, rather than information directed to the mind. FicSci playfully subverts the term 'science fiction' to offer an experimental process that explores the limits of imagination in relation to scientific possibility (and vice versa). FicSci is an experiment in hybridized creative practice that induces new forms of knowledge-making between the hard sciences and the social world. This collection offers writing that emerged from an encounter that brought twelve creative writers together with an astronomer. The presented science invited contemplation of scientific aspects of the night sky, in specific X-ray binary stars, extra-galactic sources, and magellanic clouds. The creative writings that emerged are attendant to the wider potentialities of scientific thought, and reveal how methodologies for storying the scientific encounter are creatively multi-form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mehita Iqani, Wamuwi Mbao\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 192850292X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781928502920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e African Minds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Mehita Iqani","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46451223363839,"sku":"9781928502920","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9fc3ce66-a898-47c7-acaf-82083a34e794.jpg?v=1735876830","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/night_sky-mehita-iqani-9781928502920","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
