La influencia de la muerte de Jane fue una parte dominante de la vida y obra de Philp K. Dick. El biógrafo Lawrence Sutin escribe; ...El trauma de la muerte de Jane quedó como el suceso central de la vida psíquica de Phil Dos años más tarde los padres de Dick, Dorothy Grant y Joseph Edgar Dick se mudaron a Berkeley. A esas alturas el matrimonio estaba prácticamente roto y el divorcio llegó en 1932, Dick se quedó con su madre, con la que se trasladó a Washington. En 1940 volvieron a Berkeley. Fue durante este período cuando Dick comenzó a leer y escribir ciencia ficción. En su adolescencia, publicó regularmente historias cortas en el Club de Autores Jovenes, una columna el Berkeley Gazette. Devoraba todas las revistas de ciencia-ficción que llegaban a sus manos y muy pronto empezó a ser influido por autores como Heinlein y Van Vogt.

  • Motion and Mobility in the Realist Novels of Philip K. Dick Ian C
    Davidson: Motion and Mobility 24 Motion and mobility in the realist novels of Philip K. Dick Ian C. Davidson Northumbria University _____________________________________ Abstract: This essay explores the ways that ideas of motion and mobility support readings of Philip K. Dick’s early novels that take full account of the changing geographical context. These novels are set during a period of rapid suburban expansion, the building of the interstate and the spread of automobility through car ownership, and their characters frequently exist in a state between continuity through conformity and the potential for change. The open-ended forms of the novels reflect a world around Dick that was still under construction, and where alternative realities can be glimpsed between incomplete materialities. Keywords: automobility; suburban; materiality; California; 1950s; Philip K. Dick Author contact: [email protected] _____________________________________ Introduction Studies of the relationships between literary studies and spatial theory have transformed the ways in which literary texts are studied and read. These changes reflect developments in cultural geography in particular, but also in anthropology and the social sciences, and produce an understanding of phenomena that takes into account their spatial relationships as well as their historical development. They result in a widespread use of ideas of mapping as Literary Geographies I (1) 2015 24-41 Davidson: Motion and Mobility 25 both research method and aesthetic product, and of a poetics of coincidence and contiguity, creating links with landscape studies and travel writing. This sustained interest in the spatial feeds directly into new work that has taken place in mobility studies, and has subsequently led to an interest in practices of representation, including literary writing (Merriman et al, 2008: 191-212).

  • The Black Iron Prison of Philip K. Dick Part 1 of 2
    David Benjamin Baccalaureate Thesis 5/14/2001 The Black Iron Prison of Philip K. Dick Benjamin 2 CONTENTS I: 2-3-74 3 II: The Valis Trilogy 8 III: First Period 23 IV: Second Period 43 V: Third Period 68 Notes 76 Appendix: A Chronology of Composition 98 Bibliography 103 Benjamin 3 I: 2-3-74 In February and March of 1974, Philip K. Dick communicated directly with God. Or aliens. Or an artificial intelligence satellite. Or his dead twin sister. Or the KGB. Or the CIA/FBI/IMF. Or his own self, contacting him either from the future or from an alternate “present” in a parallel dimension. Or, and he considered this along with every other possibility, he had simply gone insane, and his otherwise inexplicable experiences could be explained by temporal lobe epilepsy, brain damage due to his past drug use, multiple personality disorder, and/or the onset of acute schizophrenia.1 There are some slight variations in the different accounts of Philip K. Dick’s “2-3-74” experience, but all the accounts begin with a pharmacy delivery girl wearing a fish necklace. On January 15, 1982, in an interview with Gwen Lee, Dick gave what is very likely the last recorded account of 2-3-74: It just, it all started when I was on Pentothal and a girl came to the door with some medication from the pharmacy. Some pain medication. And she was wearing a Christian fish sign. And I was dazed from the Pentothal and dazed from the pain and I saw the fish sign and a strange funk came over me and I said--now, I was in terrible pain you know and I’m reaching for the bag and I said, “What is that?” and it shone when the sun struck it and it blinded me.

  • PKD Otaku 21 [Draft]
    PKD Otaku 21 [draft] “What is PKD?” by Catlover Fat PKD or polycystic kidney disease is an inherited disease that affects the kidneys. It has been found in exotic cats like Persians or Siamese PKD has been sporadically reported since 1967 as the most effecting disease among cats. Some of the clinical signs are depression, lack of or reduced appetite, excessive thirst, and excessive urination of the infected cat. Nowadays it is the most common inherited disease in the US among humans. Children of parents with PKD have a 50% chance of getting the disease. What? Can anyone get the connection? It has been far too long sine a new issue of PKD Otaku has seen the light of day. I have no excuses, unless sheer laziness can be called an excuse. But with the gentle prodding of my co-editor, Marc, as well as the urgings of a number of friends I have finally gotten my act together and come up with this, the 21st issue of OTAKU. I hope you, the reader, will find the effort worthwhile. My heart-felt thanks to all the contributors; really it is your zine, not mine. And good news: I’m even now pulling together material for the next issue. INTERVIEW WITH THE SLIME MOLD This interview with PKD Otaku extraordinaire Dave Hyde originally appeared at “Dickian Gnosticism,” a site in Poland at www.dickiangnosticism.prv.pl/wizja.html. It re-appears here through the generosity of Dave and the site’s manager Marcin Stefański. 1. How are you? You are one of the most famous PKD fans on the world.

  • SIMULACRUM MELTDOWN No
    SIMULACRUM MELTDOWN No. 3 1 SIMULACRUM MELTDOWN #3 (October 2001) "I guess I yearn to be Horselover Fat; he is not just my alter ego; he is my idealized self." INTRODUCTORY REMARKS Welcome to the third issue of Simulacrum Meltdown. It's late again. It's become a tradition, frankly, to not come out on a regular schedule. In this instance, I thought it would be ready in July. Fat chance. But here it is at last, for what it's worth… This issue finishes up the Dr. Futurity essay from last time. It has a small section of Phil and drugs promised last time but not the piece on Phil and the FBI. In the essay on Time Out of Joint in SimMelt number 1 I remarked that Phil had made much mention of his old novel in the years following publication. Boy, was that flat out wrong! Frank Bertrand provides the evidence. Perry Kinman is still slogging away at his Razzleweave zine in Japan. "Zine?" I don’t think so. From what I have seen Razzleweave is going to me an encyclopedia! Nadia Markalova continues to publish her Russian-language The God in the Trash. She's up to three issues now. What If Our World Is Their Heaven: The Final Conversations with Philip K. Dick was finally published and contains some fascinating material. But The Selected Letters 1980-1982 is still in limbo. So is the Imposter movie, though I saw a trailer to that on a video this summer. Minority Report is in progress from Spielberg.
