SFFaudio News

The Anti-Gravity RoomHere’s a complete episode of YTV’s The Anti-Gravity Room from the second season (episode 11 of season 2), titled The Global Village.

This episode includes a discussion of what anime is, a substantial look at the then new “anime sensation” called Ghost in the Shell as well as interviews with Carl Macek, a pair of South African cartoonists, and a young Garth Ennis in Belfast!

Ennis’s comments about the internet, near the end of part 2, probably still reflect his attitude today.

The Anti-Gravity Room – a tour of Harlan Ellison’s secret comics stash

SFFaudio News

The Anti-Gravity RoomHow cool would it be to get a personal tour of Harlan Ellison’s secret comics room in his home in Sherman Oaks, California?

It’d be really cool right?

Yup, you’d be right! I know it is cool because I saw this video on YTV back in the early 1990s. It was produced as a segment for a fondly remembered TV show called The Anti-Gravity Room.

At the time Ellison was producing a comic called Harlan Ellison’s Dream Corridor. Sadly my collection was burglarized. I should have had them in a secret room like Harlan!

But now, come to think of it, his secret room now has, somewhere inside it, a CD copy of Scott’s SFFaudio interview with Ellison!

And the interview is also available as episode #066 of The SFFaudio Podcast |MP3|.
