Back in 2007 BBC Radio 7 described this reading as…

“A clever tale about some alien art thieves who arrive to plunder Earth.”

It first aired in December of that year, and now its airing again this weekend…

What is the chilling reason behind an alien race travelling back in time to steal our planet’s great works of art?

And here you all thought the title of this story referred to how long its taking the BBC to podcast its fiction.

Acclaimed roboticist and fiction writer Karl Iagnemma was interviewed on NOVA for their piece entitled “Engineering Fiction.”

Have a listen |MP3|.

Karl, from MIT, talks to NOVA scienceNOW‘s Susan Lewis about his dual life as a robot engineer and award-winning fiction author. He speaks of his preference for fiction over science and the reasons for these choices in this short interview. It was enough to whet my appetite… Apparently there is an upcoming movie starring Brad Pitt from one of his short stories, On the Nature of Human Romantic Interaction.
