The Second Coming of Philip K. Dick
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

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.

Amets egiten dute yonkiek tripi elektrikoekin? Zientzia fikzioko idazle baten gaineko gunea euskaraz.
http://www.galeon.com/japer/amets.htm
Amets egiten dute yonkiek tripi elektrikoekin? (Philip K. Dick) Agian idazle gutxi eduki dute hainbeste eragina gaurko zientzia fikzioan eta hala ere guztiz ezezaguna da jende gehienarentzat. Ezagutzen ez dutenentzat, derrigorrezkoa da bi filme aipatzea. Lehena Blade Runner da, Ridley Scott-ek zuzenduta eta Harrison Ford-ek protagonizatuta, Philip K. Dick-en " amets egiten dute androideek ardi elektrikoekin? " elaberrian oinarrituta dago. Elaberria eta filmea nahiko ezberdinak badira ere, Philp K. Dick-ek bere elaberrian egiten zuen erreflexioa mantentzen da filmean: makina eta gizakien arteko ezberdintasunak murriztuko diren etorkizun batean zer bereiztuko gaitu makinetatik? edo beste era batean esanda: kanpoko itxura alde batera utzirik zer da gizakiak egiten gaituena? Beste filmea Total Recall da, Paul Verhoven-ek zuzenduta eta Arnold Schwarzenegger-ek protagonizatuta, Philip K. Dick-en ipuin batean oinarrituta dago. Filme honen efektu berezi eta ekintza eskenen azpitik begiratzen badugu Philip K. Dick-en ohizko gaiak aurkituko ditugu, batez ere bere lanetan oinarrizkoa izan den gai bat: zer da errealitatea? nola jakin ahal dugu gure zentzuek erakusten diguna erreala denik? Eta gai honek, printzipioz, Philip K. Dick-ekin zerikusirik ez daukan filme batera eramaten gaitu: Matrix . Filme hau ez dago Philip K. Dick-en lan batean oinarrituta eta hala ere Dick-en eragina nabarmena da. Dick-en aurretik zientza fikzioa guztiz errazionalista zen, gure zentzuek erakusten diguna errealitatea dela esaten zuen, baina Philip K. Dick-ek zalantza hau ezarri zuen: eta gure zentzuek erakusten diguna erreala izan ez balitz? galdera honek aukera anitz zabaltzen zuen zientzia fikziorako.

Philip K. Dick is one of the crucial figures in modern science fiction. He was too prolific for his own good, churning out dozens of novels for cheap paperback publication, often in such haste that their conclusions tend to be their weakest part. He was obsessive, disorganized, and in his later years paranoid. Yet his conceptions were often brilliant, and he has come to be looked on as one of the masters, though only a small fraction of his work is in print at any one time. His titles are often wonderfully surrealistic, as in the striking Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said ; and Blade Runner was originally titled (for reasons that will become apparent as you read it) Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.

Analyse de la nouvelle 'Second Variety' et de son adaptation cin©matographique 'Plan¨te Hurlante'.
http://www.cottet.org/etudes/adaptation.htm
vers AlphaBestiaire L'objet de ces quelques pages est l'analyse d'une trahison. Celle de la nouvelle Second Variety , écrite par Philip K. Dick en 1953, adaptée au cinéma sous le titre français de Planète Hurlante (en anglais The Screamers Présenté par la critique comme fidèle à l'original, ce film détourne habilement le regard extrêmement intelligent que portait Philip K. Dick sur le thème de la violence. L'auteur de Blade Runner , dont l'oeuvre est entièrement dominée par le problème du "double", anticipait pour beaucoup les thèses magistralement développées par René Girard à propos de la crise mimétique. Comme toujours, la violence filmée se révèle spectaculaire, alors que le propos de l'auteur d' Ubik était tout autre.
L'analyse de cette trahison cinématographique va nous permettre de suivre cette habile subversion par la violence du message de paix et de fraternité posé par Dick dans sa nouvelle.
Il n'est pas nécessaire de connaître l'oeuvre de Philip K. Dick (bien que je vous encourage à la découvrir ou à la redécouvrir) pour suivre ces développements, mais je vous conseille de parcourir au préalable ce très rapide résumé du film et de la nouvelle.

By Lawrence Sutin
Here is a subtle but startling irony: in several of his best novels, Philip K. Dick - world-famous as a science-fiction writer and hence, by definition, a creator of futuristic worlds - set his narratives in the late twentieth century, an epoch we left behind with great pomp in the celebration of the New Millennium. And yet the novels, and the stories, and the essays of Dick seem as futuristic as ever, which is to say - as vitally relevant to our own time as only great literature can be.
Science Fiction Visionary
Since his untimely death at age 53, there has been an extraordinary growth of interest in his writings, which during his lifetime were largely ignored by serious mainstream critics and readers. Such is no longer the case, and the novels of Philip K. Dick frequently appear on university curricula devoted to modern American literature. But that is only the beginning of the transformation. Since 1982, when Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (based on Dick's novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?) made its debut, seven feature films based on Dick's fiction have appeared, the other six being

    PHILIP KINDRED DICK
    En mars 1982, quelques mois avant la sortie du Blade Runner Retour à Lilliput , dès l'âge de treinze ans. A l'origine, il voulait devenir paléontologue, mais un jour il acheta un numéro de Stirring Science Stories au lieu de Popular Science , son magazine habituel. L'écriture ne constituait qu'un passe-temps; il travaillait à la boutique de vente et de réparation de télés et au magasin de radio et de disques. En 1947, Dick s'inscrivit à l'université de California à Berkeley pour étudier l'allemand et approfondir ses connaissances en philosophie. Bien que forcé d'abandonner ses études au bout de quelques mois, les questions qu'il commençait déjà à se poser devaient le préoccuper tout le restant de sa vie. "C'est de là que m'est venue l'idée d'une mystérieuse qualité de l'univers qui pouvait être abordée dans la science-fiction." Il fit ensuite la connaissance d' Anthony Boucher , rédacteur en chef du Magazine of Fantasy and Science-Fiction . Dick écrivit alors du fantastique et de la science-fiction à jet continu. Il continuait de produire une littérature générale, mais c'est la science-fiction qui se vendait, et bien. Fin 1954, Dick avait publié 62 nouvelles (en tout juste trois ans de métier) et achevé son premier roman de S.F.

    Philip K. Dick: The Other Side
    Paul Rydeen
    ... the group had taken an active interest in their situation, viewing it as a manifestation on an earthly plane of certain super-terrestrial forces. - Jack Isidore (1) My first exposure to the mind-bending fiction of Philip K. Dick was in early 1981. It must have been January or February because I remember it still being quite cold. To my surprise, a friend of my dad's had given him a recent issue of Playboy, which I eagerly perused whenever I had the chance. On one such occasion I needed to prove to myself a maturity beyond the pictures of naked ladies, so I commenced to read the magazine's various features. It turned out to be the December 1980 issue; one feature was Phil's story "Frozen Journey" (2). Although this high-school senior had been reading science fiction for a decade or more, I must confess I was confused by the shifting realities portrayed in "Frozen Journey". Further readings did little for my comprehension.

    Philip K. Dick and Human Kindness
    I have never been able to stand the self-conscious novelist, who teaches university for a living and delivers one Great American novel a year. Self-reverential and -referential, this individual bleeds "literature" to the exclusion of anything unconscious and true. Opposed to this is the natural, the idiot savant, the desperate man who has no idea that he is writing anything memorable, the madman whose pulp fiction is half garbage and half genius. This was Philip K. Dick, who started and ended his career writing cheap Ace paperbacks, who did too many drugs and left too many marriages and died at age 53, but whose writing has a quality of unexpected wild insight that guarantees he will be remembered. He is best known as the author of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? , which was filmed, not very faithfully, as Blade Runner . The originalwhich would have made a better, but less popular, movie if filmed exactly as written is among the best of Dick's explorations of the question: What is human? Dick took too many hallucinogenic drugs in his lifetime, and they undid him. There is a very funny, yet very grave scene in
