Dick.

About Philip K. Dick<\/strong>:
\n“Reality is whatever refuses to go away when I stop believing in it.” – Philip K. Dick\u00a0Philip K. Dick (1928-1982) was one of the 20th century’s most profound novelists and writers within the science fiction community. His exploration, analysis and beliefs led to the\u00a0publishings of 44 novels and 121 short stories. Dick’s enormous library of works led to several successful\u00a0film developments including Blade Runner (1982), Total Recall (1990),\u00a0Minority Report (2002), Paycheck (2003), A Scanner Darkly (2006), 2012 Festival “Best Science Fiction Feature” Award winner Radio Free Albemuth (2010), The Adjustment\u00a0Bureau (2011) and Total Recall (2012). Dick’s enormously effective views comprised of technological advancements, fictional universes, virtual realities and human mutation\u00a0foresaw an exaggerated version of the current state of government and contemporary life. Though he is gone in the physical form his philosophies live on in the techniques applied\u00a0to modern stories and films and generate large displays of appreciation and understanding.<\/span><\/p>\n
