The Man Who (really) Fell to Earth: Philip K. Dick – The internationally celebrated Sci-Fi writer (who most people never heard of).
THE DICK AND DAVID CONNECTION
“Just like we think Bowie knows something these people think I know something.” – Philip K. Dick, Exegesis.
On David Bowie’s death: “We feel such a loss because we didn’t just lose one star, but six Bowies.” Fritz Kiekhefer of Mill Valley told us. “Goblin King, Ziggy Stardust, The Thin White Duke, Alladin Sane, Major Tom, Jean Genie.”
“(My Dad, David Bowie), introduced me to Philip K. Dick and …William Gibson who wrote Neuromancer. In movies, he was the one who showed me 2001 and Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner.” Duncan Zowie (Bowie) Jones, writer\director of 2016 epic fantasy film, “Warcraft,” based on the best-selling video game series.
“VALIS” : Within VALIS: Philip K. Dick’s Homage to The Man Who Fell to Earth PKD said: “The (Bowie) film (The Man Who Fell to Earth) tremendously impressed me; I just loved it. My use of the film VALIS is my homage to The Man Who Fell to Earth. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life to see that.”
Philip K. Dick
Reality or unreal? PKD and sci-fi twin, the late beloved Marin County Supervisor Charles McGlashan. One of Charles McGlashan’s favorite movies was The Revenge of the Electric Car.
“By 2006, thousands of new electric cars were purposely destroyed by the same car companies that built them. Less than 5 years later, the electric car was back… with a vengeance.” Revenge of the Electric Car by director Chris Paine.
