Shipping Containers
Filed under General • 26-01-2009 •
There’s a reference today on the Futurismic web site to my short story Flotsam, in an article about shipping containers being turned into makeshift housing. It’s a fascinating article, which you can read by following this link.
Flotsam appeared in issue 3 of online magazine Concept Sci-Fi. In it, I imagined container ships hastily refitted as floating refugee camps. I wasn’t the first to come up with the idea of using containers to provide living space, but it’s gratifying to be mentioned in the same breath as Ken MacLeod, Neal Stephenson, and William Gibson.
