“A house is just a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get more stuff.” – A quote from the comedian and philosopher, George Carlin. His rhetoric depicts humanity’s urge to store “stuff” as an extension of their “stuff” similar to the Abrahamic mythology, “Noah’s Ark”, a “collective data Petri dish” installing the algorithm of life (mitochondrial DNA and RNA) under a climate change (“Geostorm”). Noah’s Ark was a civilized innovative convenient storing tool compared to the exponentially inconvenient symmetry of the “Raiders of the Lost Ark (of the Covenant)’s” Hangar 51 installation. The algorithm is based upon predicting the classification of the symmetry of good or evil (morality) in a variety of divided situations through evaluating success or failure while bridging the symmetry of Physics for better outcomes with acceptance in the “Jacob’s Ladder” of life. In other words, in Sci-fi, nothing is a predetermined end to a mean when one can conjugate another “free-will algorithm of prediction” with a grammatical conjunction or a transition within the Critical Theory leading to human liberation, sparking a “Chain Reaction” toward the infinite and convenient “antithesis”, and to classify the “free” from the “Total Recall” of “stuff” (knowledge advancements). In this paper, the author will discuss how English Sci-Fi, film, and literature (covered in class) can resolve real-life social obstacles, with the 8 Laws of Computing, while inspiring responsibility within future Yokohama National University’s AI and IT engineers with the transformative UN Ark of 2030 Agenda in collaboration with the Cooperative On-line International Learning (COIL)10 as well as the “2024 Socrates Program” curriculum, while “neurolink(ed)” and ready to solve future conundrums in Japan.
