Star Trek and Beyond with Paul Levinson

A layered, colorful science-fiction illustration showing streams of glowing light and signal-like patterns flowing across space, blending abstract starfields, retro-futurist shapes, and modern network-like constellations. A sleek starship arcs through the scene while rhythmic bands of color and repeating light patterns suggest music and cultural transmission across time. The overall mood is energetic and thoughtful, evoking the evolution of science fiction, media, and music as a shared, living conversation.

A conversation with science fiction author, media scholar, and musician Paul Levinson about the history and legacy of the Star Trek franchise, including his thoughts on the latest entry to the canon, Strange New Worlds. We discuss the philosophy and technologies featured on this great series of shows, and what its ultimate legacy might be.
