"Sci-Phi: Science Fiction as Philosophy" by Professor David Kyle Johnson offers a 24-lecture exploration of how science fiction in film and television serves as a powerful platform for examining philosophical questions. Tracing the genre’s roots from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to iconic movies and series, the course highlights how these stories help us engage with complex ideas about technology, ethics, and human experience. Through a diverse range of examples, the series encourages critical thinking about some of the most profound themes in science fiction.
