    I Think I Am Philip K. Dick

    No full text
    For years, noted writer Laurence A. Rickels often found himself compared to novelist Philip K. Dickthough in fact Rickels had never read any of the science fiction writers work. When he finally read his first Philip K. Dick novel, while researching for his recent book The Devil Notebooks , it prompted a prolonged immersion in Dicks writing as well as a recognition of Rickelss own long-documented intellectual pursuits. The result of this engagement is I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick , a profound thought experiment that charts the wide relevance of the pulp sci-fi author and paranoid visionary. I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick explores the science fiction authors meditations on psychic reality and psychosis, Christian mysticism, Eastern religion, and modern spiritualism. Covering all of Dicks science fiction, Rickels corrects the lack of scholarly interest in the legendary Californian author and, ultimately, makes a compelling case for the philosophical and psychoanalytic significance of Philip K. Dicks popular and influential science fiction.Intro -- Contents -- Introjection -- Part I -- Endopsychic Allegories -- Schreber Guardian -- Belief System Surveillance -- Part II -- Deeper Problems -- Veil of Tears -- Go West -- Dick Manfred -- Timing -- Glimmung -- Part III -- Spiritualism Analogy -- Imitating the Dead -- Indexical Layer -- Ilse -- Hammers and Things -- Crucifictions -- Over There -- Martyrology -- Can't Live, Can't Live -- Lola -- Umwelt, Mitwelt, and Eigenwelt -- Outer Race -- The German Introject -- Part IV -- Materialism, Idealism, and Cybernetics -- Startling Stories -- A Couple of Years -- Android Empathy -- Homunculus and Robot -- ALL OF YOU ARE DEAD.

    No full text
    The Hybrid Bodies book features essays and artworks from prominentartists, theorists and art historians, who address the Process ofIncorporating a Transplanted Heart (PITH) research team’s efforts within the multifaceted world of transplant medicine. Few organs are as charged as the human heart.

    No full text
    Das Ferienresort liegt in Sharm el Sheikh, genauer gesagt in Sharm el Mayya, einem der schönsten Orte in Sinai. Inspiriert aus der Tradition örtlicher Baukultur entsteht eine Hotelanlage am Rande einer künstlichen Steinbruch- Lagune, umgeben von den schönsten Korallenriffen des Roten Meeres.Die aufgelockerte Bauweise und niedrige Bauhöhen kennzeichnen das Projekt. Das Resort umfasst ein großes Hotelgebäude, ein Spa, Zimmerblocks, Villen, ein Sportzentrum und eine Moschee.Die Architektur der Gebäude beruht auf strengen geometrischen Formen, welche an die bergige Landschaft errinnern. Die Lagune und dessen Strand jedoch haben eine weich-fließende Form, mit der man das Meer asoziiert. Die Landschaft wurde mitkonzipiert und beinhaltet eine Wasserbühne in der Lagune, viele Grünflächen, Rampen und Steinwege und ein Beduinenzelt.Das Projekt legt großen Wert darauf, mit traditionellen Bauweisen, das ökologische System dieses hochsensiblen Lebensraum, nicht aus dem Gleichgewicht zu bringen
