www.screened.com/news/mr-spock-space-wizard/2567/ Mr. Spock, Space WizardAn exploration of how the concept of the wizard translates into science fiction television and films with your friend Mr. Spock from Star Trek.By Andrew Gray | July 13, 2011 Live long and prosper. Science-fiction films and television have an odd relationship with magic. They dance on the line between fantasy and fact, replacing magic spells for scientific theories and technology. The most ardent science-fiction separates magic and science as antitheses. However, the brief nature of film and television require that the impossible happen to advance a story. Magic is required. Science and technology are used as alternate names for magic -- different monikers for the same type of arcane knowledge. Those that wield this knowledge of science are akin to fantasy film wizards. They are Space Wizards. Mr. Spock from the science-fiction franchise Star Trek encapsulates the concept of the Space Wizard. Throughout the films and television series of Star Trek, Spock routinely makes the impossible happen. The creators of Spock balance the believable with the exigencies of a story. Spock utilizes a rare knowledge of science and technology on the Starship Enterprise to bend the Universe to his will. Spock is a scientist and miracle worker, fulfilling many of the roles of the classic wizard in Western mythology. In the Middle English meaning of the word "wizard," Spock is a learned, wise sage tasked with the protection of information and its application in everyday life. In the Medieval romance sense of the word, Spock spouts scientific jargon and data as magical incantation. His word transmutes reality. Spock also acts as the Guide or Mentor from Joseph Campbell's monomyth. As a man who understands the nature of the Universe, he casts adventurers to their destiny. Spock is an important part of any story that includes him. The Space Wizard Spock distinguishes himself from fantasy wizards in an important way. Science-fiction has a unique capacity to inspire. As a role model to future scientists, Spock has the ability to actually shape the real world. The character reaches out of his entertainment to drive dreamers to scientific exploration. Spock bends the Universe to his will by planting the seeds of discovery. Spock is a powerful Space Wizard in every capacity. CONTINUE READING: www.screened.com/news/mr-spock-space-wizard/2567/

Doh!! you could have got Mr. Spocks autograph. That would be cool. I always liked good old Spock. He may not be around much longer since he's getting up in years so you better go see him now while you still can.

Leonard Nimoy has attended his last convention. At 80 years old..I can understand wanting to give up the ears. I do remember him in many old westerns (he wasn't bad) I've also seen Doc McCoy and Shatner in westerns too. It's what you did back in that era. I remember a Star Trek episode about the OK corral..that was kind of cool. Live long and prosper and may they beam you up in style Leonard Nimoy news.yahoo.com/spock-attends-last-star-trek-convention-184128946.html

He was such a handsome fighter of the zombies of the stratosphere! I like him in Fringe as well, playing an interdimensional traveler and wise man. When he was on Startrek I'm guessing all the hot-blooded gals were sure THEY could make him feel a human emotion or too!

In the original Star Trek the by play between Spock and Nurse Chapel (who was Gene Roddenberry's wife Majel) was really fun. They wrote one episode to have him under the influence of some alien plant spoor that allowed him to romance her a bit. That was one of my favorites..she was also the voice of the ships computer.
