Project Gutenberg 2012-12-14 Public domain in the USA. 227 Bradbury, Ray 1920 2012 Elliott, William Bradbury, Raymond Douglas Sterling, Brett Futuria Fantasia, Summer 1939 Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futuria_Fantasia Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Futuria Fantasia, Summer 1939" by Ray Bradbury is a science fiction magazine that serves as both an editorial space and a platform for contributing authors, written during the early 20th century. The publication reflects the burgeoning interest in science fiction, blending speculative ideas with commentary on contemporary societal issues, particularly in connection with the concept of Technocracy. The magazine aims to explore themes of technological advancement and its socio-economic implications while expressing a vision for the future. The inaugural issue features three main pieces. The first, an editorial by Bradbury, introduces readers to the newsletter's intentions and its focus on Technocracy, a socio-economic movement advocating for a new system driven by science and technology. The second piece is an article by Bruce Yerke, detailing the principles of Technocracy and its potential to replace the existing economic paradigm, forecasting societal collapse under current systems. Finally, Ron Reynolds' fictional story reveals characters grappling with the changes brought by Technocracy, exploring the clash between the desire for art and individualism against a backdrop of a secure and utilitarian society. Together, these writings present a mix of optimism and skepticism toward the impacts of technology on individual creativity and freedom.
