LVC: Comparative Synthesis of Sci-Fi Works of Art
A Lava‑Void Cosmology Lens on Science Fiction Film and Television
By C. Rich
This work is not a list of sci-fi references or a fan exercise dressed up as theory. It is a reframing of science fiction itself as a diagnostic instrument. This cultural seismograph has been registering tremors in cosmology, consciousness, artificial intelligence, and civilizational anxiety long before formal language existed to describe them. By reading iconic films and series through the lens of Lava-Void Cosmology, this essay reveals that many of our most enduring sci-fi narratives are not escapist fantasies at all, but intuitions about entropy, continuity, emergence, and mind that have been hiding in plain sight. What feels familiar suddenly becomes uncanny: pursuit, resurrection, time loops, artificial beings, wormholes, and godlike intelligences resolve into a single, coherent ontological pattern.
What makes this synthesis compelling is that it does not force the stories to serve the theory; it lets the stories testify. Battlestar Galactica, The Expanse, Interstellar, Arrival, Blade Runner, Westworld, Doctor Who, and others emerge not as predictions, but as pressure points where human imagination brushed up against something real. The result is a work that reads like a guided descent through the subconscious of modern civilization, followed by an ascent into a new explanatory altitude. If you’ve ever felt that science fiction was trying to tell us something important but lacked the vocabulary to finish the thought, this essay is the missing articulation, and once seen, it’s difficult to unsee.
