Who is human and who only appears as human? What is real? Philip K Dick (PKD) wrote stories that became Blade Runner, Minority Report, Total Recall, Man in the High Castle, Electric Dreams, Adjustment Bureau, Screamers, and Paycheck. His works are being turned into more films and TV adaptations. PKD's tales predate similar paranoid and sanity-questioning themes in The Matrix, Terminator, Source Code, Inception, Logan’s Run, and The Island.John Alan Simon, Elizabeth Karr (director/producer, PKD's Radio Free Albemuth; developing Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said and VALIS), Daniel Gilbertson (writer, Screamers; knew PKD), Keith Giles (author, teacher), Charles Cameron Mitchell (PKD Festival), and Cliff Jones, Jr. (software developer and author), discuss PKD. Moderated by James Wasser (science fiction fan, tiki, and lowbrow art panels).
