Extractions: Philip K(indred) Dick (1928-1982) "He would die, and presently they would realize their mistake. Perhaps at some other time, when there was no war, men might not act this way, hurrying an individual to his death because they were afraid. Everyone was frightened, everyone was willing to sacrifice the individual because of the group fear." (from the short story 'Imposter' Philip K. Dick was born in Chicago, Illinois, as the son of Joseph Edgar Dick, a Federal Government employee, and Dorothy Kindred. His twin sister Jane died just a few weeks after the birth, and his parents divorced when he was four. The family moved to California when he was young. He attended Berkeley High School and studied from 1945 to 1946 at the University of California at Berkeley. He operated a record store and worked as a disk jockey for the KSMO radio station. During these years Dick started to write science fiction stories and sold his first tale in 1952 to Planet Stories . One of Dick's short stories from this period, 'Paycheck', was filmed in 2003 by John Woo, starring Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman. Dick also composed over half-a-dozen mainstream novels without much success. Frustrated by this inattention he turned to science fiction, a genre which he found ideal for his philosophical speculations.

Each one of us has his own line, his own work. I understand my work, you understand yours. The tendency in evolution is toward greater and greater specialization. Man's society is an ecology that forces adaptation to it. Continued complexity makes it impossible for us to know anything outside our own personal field - I can't follow the work of the man sitting at the next desk over from me. Too much knowledge has piled up in each field. And there are too many fields. "The Variable Man" (short story, 1952) from The Collected Short Stories of Philip K. Dick, v.1: The Short Happy Life of the Brown Oxford Doctor Labyrinth, like most people who read a great deal and who have too much time on their hands, had become convinced that our civilization was going the way of Rome. He saw, I think , the same cracks forming that had sundered the ancient world, the world of Greece and Rome; and it was his conviction that presently our world, our society, would pass away as theirs did, and a period of darkness would follow.

Extractions: (4 Ix (Jaguar) / 17 Uo - 134/260 - 12.19.11.4.14) "Philip K. Dick, in one of his last novels, discusses the long hibernation of the Logos . A creature of pure information, it was buried int he ground at Nag Hammadi, along with the burying of the Chenoboskion Library circa 370 A.D. As static information, it existed there until , when the texts were translated and read. As soon as people had the information in their minds, the symbiote came alive, for, like the mushroom consciousness, Dick imagined it to be a thing of pure information. The mushroom consciousness is the consciousness of the Other in hyperspace , which means in dream and in the psilocybin trance , at the quantum foundation of being, in the human future, and after death. All of these places that were thought to be discrete and seperate are seen to be part of a single continuum. History is the dash over ten to fifteen thousand years from nomadism to flying saucer, hopefully without ripping the envelope of the planet so badly that the birth is aborted and fails, and we remain brutish prisoners of matter."

But more importantly, Dick at his best offers a unique and wildly creative blend of science fiction, mysticism, religion, personal experience, metaphysics and pulp drama. His works are written in a clear language with a beguiling sense of honesty, and yet beneath their direct style and standard sci-fi trappings lies a deeper world of intense emotions, metaphysical speculation, and frequently shocking ideas.

Extractions: The inside-out story of how a hyper-paranoid, pulp-fiction hack conquered the movie world 20 years after his death. By Frank Rose Nicole Panter FEATURE: The Second Coming of Phillip K. Dick PLUS: Reality Check The Metaphysics of Philip K. Dick The Hollywood Treatment The unbilled costar of Paycheck , the latest Hollywood thriller from the battered typewriter of Philip K. Dick, is a bullet. A crack engineer named Jennings, played by Ben Affleck, finds himself in a jam, as Dick's characters invariably do, and the bullet is headed his way. Spiraling through the air in superslow motion, it pierces his chest in a plume of red and bores into his heart. Or does it? Though the image recurs throughout the film, it's hard to tell whether it's actually happening or not. Philip K. Dick liked nothing better than to toy with the fundamentals of human existence, reality chief among them, so what better for the movie than a bullet that may or may not be tearing through the main character's flesh? Like other Dick protagonists - Tom Cruise in Minority Report , Arnold Schwarzenegger in Total Recall , Harrison Ford in Blade Runner - Affleck finds himself struggling for equilibrium in a world where even the most elemental questions are almost impossible to answer. Can the senses be trusted? Are memories real? Is

Extractions: @import url("http://www.who2.com/css/standard_gamma.css"); Philip Kindred Dick was a prolific science fiction author who ditched bug-eyed monsters and spacemen to explore the nature of reality and paranoia on a cosmic scale. In spite of winning a Hugo Award for his 1962 novel The Man in the High Castle , Dick was largely unknown until 1982, when his novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? was made into the film Blade Runner (directed by RIdley Scott and starring Harrison Ford and Daryl Hannah ). After his death Dick's work found a new audience, and the "mainstream" novels of his early career (ignored at the time) were finally published. Among his best-known novels are Martian Time-Slip Ubik (1969) and Valis Extra credit : Dick was married five times... His friend, K.W. Jeter, has written two sequels to Blade Runner ... Dick's story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale was the basis for the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger film Total Recall ... The 2002 film Minority Report (directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Cruise ) is based on a Philip K. Dick story of the same name...
