Das letzte #Kapitel in Frank Schnelles #Buch zu #RidleyScott​s #BladeRunner ist das beste, was ich zu diesem #Film je gelesen habe. Er analysiert die alte #Kino​fassung (die mit Off-Kommentar) und vergleicht hier und da mit dem #DirectorsCut. Der ist Schnelle zufolge nur in einem Aspekt überlegen: Im komprimisslosen Schluss. Aber noch einige interessante Erkenntnisse legt er dar. Schön, dass der Film einen nach all den Jahren immer wieder Neues entdecken lässt.

Au bout du labyrinthe de #PhilipKDick terminé. Peut-être mon préféré de l'auteur jusqu'ici, le retournement est super. Pioche au hasard du suivant avec L'oeil dans le ciel.

"Songs, Ayres & Dances" by #JohnDowland.

Picked up this 10 CD set after learning where #PhilipKDick got the title
for "Flow My Tears...". So far I've listed the first two CDs and the
music is sublime, just perfect for the easter holidays. Despite the cover depicting him as "guitar hero" the lute playing is actually in the background and very subdued.

American Nightmares: The Near-Future Dystopia as Political Warning, from Bradbury to Butler to the Present - David Somerfleck | Science Fiction Author

A definitive guide to the American political dystopia — from Fahrenheit 451's burning books to Octavia Butler's eerily prescient 2024, Philip K. Dick's manufactured realities, Ursula Le Guin's anarchist ambiguity, and N.K. Jemisin's enslaved geological workers. Why these five writers share a single tradition, and what that tradition demands of the reader.

#PsychicDrool | The Mechanics of Electric Sheep

This one's about Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Which is a silly title until you read the novel and realise it's a deeper title than you initially thought, yet you still have no idea what the title actually means.

The Mechanics of Electric Sheep

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? would make a great movie. This isn’t me deliberately pretending it hasn’t already been made into a movie, it’s just me saying Blade Runner is a poor adaptation of the novel. I’ve never been much of a fan of Blade

Net op m'n #vinted geplaatst.. iemand herinnert me aan de thematiek van de dag, en dat het typisch voor mij is om dit vandaag met de uurwissel online te zetten.
Maar ik was me er echt niet van bewust :)

I think I've finished my Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? blog post.

Quite pleased with it.

I'll read it later before posting.

Needs a blog image too.
