| Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web. While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself!

WETA has released a range of District 9 collectibles, including full-scale replicas of the prawn weapon props and a 1/6th sculpture of the main Prawn characters in the film. I thought the Prawn sculpture would be relevant since the Prawns are pretty good movie aliens from a Speculative Biology standpoint, but one of those assasult rifles would definitely be a gun to hang above the fireplace... Though at upwards of 1800 Rand for the Prawn sculpture, it doesn't look like I'd be able to afford it. It's understandable though, they're really high quality stuff, not supermarket-level toys. |
