M. Blake Wilson: "Perturbations in the Reality Field" at The 2024 Philip K. Dick Festival
Ойын-сауық
Here's M. Blake Wilson's presentation at The 2024 Philip K. Dick Festival in Fort Morgan, Colorado entitled "Perturbations in the Reality Fields: Logos, Gnosis, and Aletheia in Phil Dick’s Late Works"
By analyzing Dick’s attempts to confront the meaning of the 2-3-74 experiences, Wilson draws together his subsequent explorations of rationality (logos), knowledge (gnosis), and aletheia (unconcealment, or disclosure) to create a Christian/Neoplatonist conception of reality and truth which resulted from the “invasion” of Dick’s mind by what he described as a “transcendentally rational mind, as if I had been insane all my life and suddenly I had become sane”
Here's Blake's bio, ripped directly from his website!!

"I am a philosopher and a lawyer specializing in criminal justice, legal studies, philosophy of law (primarily criminal law and procedure), applied ethics, and social and political philosophy. I also explore these topics in film, music, and literature. Recently I’ve been writing about the religious philosophy of my favorite science fiction author, Philip K. Dick.
I am associate professor in the Department of Criminal Justice at California State University, Stanislaus, where I work within the concentration in Criminal Legal Studies. I am also the director of the minor in pre law, coordinator of the Pre-Law Resource Center, and one of the campus pre-law advisers.
Chris Turner and I edited a book on Werner Herzog and philosophy. It is available from Lexington Books. I designed the cover based on a photograph by Lena Herzog."
