Ep 2: Stillsuits, Not Stool Suits


Listen Later

Desert life in Dune, spacesuits, and swimsuit doping. In this episode, we explore the possibility of creating Frank Herbert's fictional stillsuits. How close is a refrigerator to a stillsuit? Could your bathers be considered as “technological doping”? And how comfortable are you with drinking your own fluids? Join Manon and Lance as they explore the technology in Frank Herbert's Dune.

Intro Music by Woody Rolph.
