The Horror of Eternal Consciousness | The Jaunt

The Jaunt by Stephen King is a short story set sometime around the year 2300. By this time humankind has begun the colonization of our solar system, this was made possible by a world changing piece of technology invented in the 80s, the Jaunt. The word “Jaunt” was first used in Alfred Bester’s 1956 science fiction novel, The Stars My Destination. In this novel humans have access to personal teleporters, teleporting was referred to as Jaunting in this novel. Stephen King takes the idea of the Jaunt and twists it into something, not merely dark but horrifying beyond comprehension. The idea of teleportation has been common in science fiction for many decades, and the fears associated with it are not unexplored. Cronenberg's famous, The Fly explores the horror of a teleportation experiment gone wrong in which the main character's DNA is accidentally mixed with an insect. Teleporters have featured prominently in Star Trek since its original release in 1965, and it’s still never been fully clear if the teleporters allow for a consciousness stream of consciousness or if they are simply killing the original person and rematerializing an exact copy with copied memories in a different place. The Jaunt also considers what becomes of the consciousness during teleportation but in a different way. To understand you have to learn how the Jaunt was first invented in this story, by a man named Victor Carune. 👽 Please consider supporting this channel on Patreon:   / ideasoficeandfire   or PAYPAL - https://paypal.me/QuinnsIdeas?locale.... 🎨 Art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/kl... https://www.deviantart.com/claytonbar... 🎵 Music:    / @jamezdahlmusic   📚 Get These Books! https://amzn.to/3QOhtfr Quinn's Discord:   / discord   FOLLOW QUINN ON TWITTER: Twitter:   / ideasofice_fire   I NOW HAVE A SUBREDDIT:   / ideasoficeandfire   Quinn's New Graphic Novel: https://www.quinnhoward.net/theliebeh...
