Bookmarked to read tonight, thanks for this -- the site is gorgeous.


there's limited mention of satyajit ray and his feud with spielberg a la Aliens. would have been fun to read about it-- https://harpercollins.co.in/product/embark-on-an-intergalact...


Seems like it's the first article of this magazine. I'd be excited to see what else they work on but I don't see any links to an rss feed :(


here's a list of future articles we are looking to commission btw: https://altermag.com/pitch-us

Wow, that's awesome! Thanks for getting back on this and thanks for the awesome work


What a beautiful site.


Very interesting visual effect in the first sections of the article


What a beautifully designed and insightful piece!


it wouldn't be a thread about India without a massive brigading / bot campaign!


Gorgeous essay. Less a story and more a museum tour of Indian Sci-Fi. Enjoyed it!


Heyo, Great article. Gautam Bhatia is a great science fiction writer himself.


All the hard work put into this piece really shows! It’s just fascinating.


Loved the article!


this looks like India's answer to Works In Progress


They reference Works in Progress in their "pitch us" page: https://altermag.com/pitch-us

Though I wouldn't say "India's answer to..." that's just lazy hyperbole. Give the magazine's makers credit, not some arbitrary national identity.

Works In Progress is a Stripe production. Alter Magazine is a production by a parent company "Alt Carbon". That's the similarity.


what an enlightening and inspiring deep-dive that celebrates the bold emergence and evolution of Indian science fiction.


Should we not start with Ramayana and Mahabartham? Although they are religious texts they had a lot of science fiction storylines.


More mythological than science fiction.
