Rudy Rucker's Home Page (his own website at San Jose State University. includes a thorough biography, bibliography, and software to download) Semiotext(e) Peter Lamborn Wilson with Rudy Rucker and Robert Anton Wilson. For more than a decade Semiotext(e), the most consistently unpredictable intellectual journal in America, has published (once every year or so) out of a liberated zone in Philosophy Hall, Columbia University. Over the last couple of years Autonomedia, a highly competent cell of America's anarchic independent guerrilla press, has operated out of Brooklyn, N.Y., publishing new European political theory. Together Semiotext(e) and Autonomedia have put out an anthology of new science fiction. Edited by Peter Lamborn Wilson (with an assist from Rudy Rucker), the anthology is designed with a mind to print work too experimental and/or radical to get published by mainstream SF outlets, a useful goal and one Wilson, a shaker and mover of the alternative press scene, is uniquely qualified to pull off. The main problem with the anthology, for all its virtues, is that other distracting concerns undermine Wilson's best efforts. One is the concern with jamming in "big names", the other is the controversiality criterion Wilson makes so much of in his selections. The big name syndrome is understandable. Marginality for its own sake is seldom a virtue. Anchorage in common currency (and what's better there than celebrity) is useful. Unfortunately, with the exception of Philip Jose Farmer's and J. G. Ballard's entries, the pieces by the "stars" (Gibson, Burroughs, R. A. Wilson, Yurick, etc.) while uniformly strong, are neither pathbreaking aesthetically, nor taboo breaking subject-wise in relation to previous standards set by these authors years ago. In the pursuit of names, precious space is lost, space that should have been devoted to new voices. The controversiality standard is similarly misguided. The emphasis on broken taboos too often becomes an end in itself. In this sense Wilson neglects more important achievements of recent Sci-Fi. As conceptually vital as science fiction has become over the past twenty years, the genre has always been relatively conservative regarding sex and drugs, if not rock n' roll. Compared to comics and "literary" fiction the explicit sex and drug stuff in "SF" ain't that new. The topical radicalism and libertarian zest of some of the satire, while entirely healthy, is not (at least not yet, a couple more republican administrations maybe) all that dangerous. Where "SF" works best as an anthology is in its introduction of some lesser known emerging mavericks of the genre. Ivan Stang, T. Winter Damon, Hakim Bey, Paul Di Fillipo. Rachel Pollack, D. A. Shawl and other "new mutants" and "freestylers", whose work has mostly appeared in underground zines, are clearly producing breakthrough work. Also worth mention are the bios, which are clever, informative, and fun. The polemical manifesto/intro to the volume, is an excellent high energy rant. Graphics provided by Mike Saenz.

Here is the TEXT POPUP for Semiotext(e) SF: Hebephrenia SF A star's hot plasma lives in dynamic equilibrium between collapsing gravitational forces and explosive heat/quantum pressures. Between black hole and nova. The heavy gold metal force of commercial SF publishing always threatens to suck the whole field into blank uniformity; the purpose of "Semiotext(e) SF" is to counter-act collapses with heat and quantum strangeness. - from the Introduction. Sometimes I think of my clitoris as a magnet, pulling me along to uncover new deposits of ore in the fantasy mines. Or maybe a compass, like the kids used to get in Woolworth's, with a blue-black needle in a plastic case, and flowery letters marking the directions. Two years ago, more by accident than design, I left the City of Civilized Sex. I still remember its grand traditions: orgasms in the service of loving relationship, healthy recreation with knowledgeable partners, a pinch of perversion to bring out the flavor. I remember them with a curious nostalgia. I think of them as I march through the wilderness, with only my compass to guide me. - Rachel Pollack in "Burning Sky" JSN reached up to the row of glowing buttons across his forehead and changed his mind with an audible click. 9780936756431 - Semiotext E Sf.

Semiotext SF by Rudy Rucker. You may have noticed that in my blog posts, I tend not to talk directly about the political stories that you see in the news. My preference is to post about the things that you don’t see in the news. Found art, surreal events, philosophical ruminations, science-fictional concepts, notes on the craft of writing, day-to-day beauty found within the real life unfolding around me. Whenever I see a news story, my first thought is: Why do “they” want me to think about this? Who are “they”? An age-old question. The one- percenters, the media barons, the commercial interests, sure. I’ve always felt that there’s no essential difference among the three elements of TV: (1) News, (2) Ads, and (3) Entertainment. All are selling fear of death, lust for glamour, and a desire to buy. Having known a lot of politically active friends over the years, I’d also suggest that the news-cycle-spinning “they” also includes the political junkies and those with a perpetual longing for a distraction from daily life. “I can’t clean up the house while XXX are suffering in YYY!” There’s always something terrible going on…somewhere…and I don’t like to give consensus-reality’s bad news a majority of my mind. I only have the one life—must I spend all of it waiting for when it’s officially okay to be happy? Restating my position one more time: all news is in one way or another a lie, a hype, a scam, and a distraction from the warm human faces and the gnarly nature of the now moment. So that’s why I avoid getting into political threads on Rudy’s Blog. I want it to be “about” the neglected topics other than the concerns shoved down our throats by the media and the countermedia news. Long live transfinite mountains, the hollow earth, time machines, fractal writing, aliens, dada, telepathy, flying saucers, warped space, teleportation, artificial reality, robots, pod people, hylozoism, endless shrinking, intelligent goo, antigravity, surrealism, software highs, two-dimensional time, gnarly computation, the art of photo composition, pleasure zappers, nanomachines, mind viruses, hyperspace, monsters from the deep and, of course, always and forever, the attack of the giant ants!

If there is nothing to post on a blog or G+, nothing is posted. However, 30 minutes of “something” will be extruded during a TV newscast, so sometimes its literally just fluffy filler, not trying for FUD or astroturfing or meaningless feel good, merely here is something other than dead air. Kind of like indigestible fiber in a digestive tract. I would estimate less than 10% of nightly network news is filler, but it approaches 25% on our local news. Thank you for this inspiration. It reminds me of this Red Hot Chili Peppers song: “Throw away your television, take the news off your ambition, reinvent your intuition…” Long live “Transgnostic SF”… I saw the term in my friend Andy’s copy of Semiotexte SF this past Friday when I went over for a visit … what a tome! That’s one to track down, as I’m guessing it’s not going to be reprinted anytime soon): (I just recently got copies of your two books from 2011 though!:) Thanks for keeping this space clean of dream adverts and propaganda. Thanks for filling it with quantum agitprop and intergalactic goop. Justin (where the overconnected slime molds drip between realities). Vince, you do have a point that the “filler” pieces in TV news are less objectionable, although they do tend to be slanted towards alarm in many cases. But pure filler, yes, that’s what we really want. I find much the same situation in history. The courses talk about politics, wars, and kings, and what you really want to hear is the filler about everyday life. Or at least the history of art, science, literature or bars, burlesque, and bowling. Filler is where it’s at. Justin and Benoit, glad you are on the wavelength. Speaking of SEMIOTEXT(E) SF, I remember Bruce Sterling saying that his MIRRORSHADES antho was the palace revolution while SEMIOTEXT(E) SF was the accompanying street demonstration. I’m hoping the Ant virus or ChipMold comes along soon. And this is why my RSS feed includes your blog and not any of the news services: I want poke my mind into gnarly thoughtspaces, and then I want to get back to watching clouds and laughing with family and friends. That’s why I read here! News you can read ona newspaper-page – if you want. Even the decision to be apolitical is a political one. What a great comfort to think that all the “bad news” of the world is a fabrication. The only reality is my comfortable, groovy life in the US. Cyberpunk Fiction Books. Probably the most important author of the genre, his first novel Neuromancer was published in 1984 and won the Hugo, the Nebula and the Philip K. Dick awards for that year.
