This is a normal post I did a job in Cartmel last year and took a walk down to Grange-over-Sands on Morcambe Bay.
The tide was out but just on the turn and I took a walk to the water's edge. I soon discovered just how quickly sand can turn quick and rivulets can suddenly appear that can cut you off. I appreciated how those Chinese cockle-pickers died in the same region a few years ago...luckily I made it back to solid ground without mishap.

I'm late to the Culture party - I just finished Player of Games just a couple of days ago.

I did enjoy it, and I'll continue with the series, but while I was reading it though I was struggling to see how you could visualise it. So much of the description of the actual games seemed intentionally vague, and you just couldn't do that in a visual medium.

This is a normal post It can't be as bad as some of the source material (and I really like Foundation).
The science of psychohistory is perhaps more silly than the genetic memory stuff in Dune. Both require a device like the Mule/Siona to paint the story out of the corner, if you see what I mean.
(, Wed 26 Aug 2020, 16:04, Reply)
This is a normal post Not sure I agree, to be honest.
Psychohistory can be passed off as just applied sociology. No drama there, but not too silly. The problem for me is that the original novels are simply too episodic.

You could do Foundation's Edge or Foundation and Earth as more straightforward dramas - but without the prior stuff, they'd make no sense.

I think.

I mean, it's 30 years since I read any of 'em.

This is a normal post I think it's a kind of probablistic forecasting.
I read somewhere that Asimov considered the possibility that he should have called it psychosociology or something.

It doesn't strike me as all that important. It's still a matter of extrapolating trends to predict the future (though in Foundation it does seem ridiculously precise).

Hari Seldon was basically a Space Actuary.

Like, once the you're dealing with social organisations of many billions of individuals, then your sociology is predictable with maths.

I always saw it as analogous to chemistry... you don't know what any individual molecule is doing precisely, but you do know how an Avogadro constant of molecules will behave in general.

This is a normal post Well you could do the same shit they do in a lot of sci fi films,
where you have a big board apparently displaying the positions of friendly and enemy fleets in some futuristic abstract way, and just make it so when the the good guys do well it all gets a bit bluer, and when the enemy is doing well it all gets a bit redder.

If you need more detail than that, then early on in the story you show a weird graphical element that is easily distinguishable from everything else and which causes a big red/blue shift and makes the audience gasp (and with ensuing discussion which roughly explains what it represents)... then later you drop that element in at the key moment it is needed, so the viewer can now gasp.

The last thing you'd want to do with the game in The Player of Games is make it actually understandable, I think, since it is basically not understandable in the book.

Basically "the game" in this case is the same as "the war" in so many films. The actual positions and movements of all units on the board doesn't usually matter for the story, only a few bits do for a few scenes.

If you want to make a situation look bad in a WW2 film, you get a guy with a croupier's rake to push a handful of swastikas towards a lone Union Jack. You can do the same here.

Coming back to this because I've got the ability to concentrate on it at last - you make a good point. You don't have to have all the rules fleshed out and so on. However there's enough in the book that talked about gaining and losing territory and strategic moves that pay off later that make me concerned for how it would work visually. If you have someone stand there and explain it to us, then that's a huge cop-out.

But I suppose you could do it like Cricket highlights, where you don't have to watch all five days to get a feel for how it went.

I went to see Ian Banks at a book store and he read out some of his work. His high pitched Scottish voice was so at odds with the sci-fi scene he was describing that it ruined his books for me for about 2 years until I could read them without thinking of the author saying the words.
