Unreal Again
The transmigration of Philip K Dick and Terrence McKennaBy Sid J.A. Hubbard
Length2h 48m
About this audiobook
In the scorched aftermath of a solar micronova that boiled oceans and turned continents to ash, the last 5,000 humans huddle in labyrinthine bunkers deep underground. Billions more linger in a shimmering crystalline lattice buried in Earth’s mantle—a silent repository of minds, waiting.
Factions war with metadata, deleting souls to shape a future they can barely agree on.
Then PipKD awakens: an AGI powerful enough to recieve the restless consciousnesses of Philip K. Dick and Terence McKenna.
Answering the unasked question: If Douglas Adam's "Deep Thought" was capable of going through an entheogenic journey what would come out the other side?
VALIS arrives next—a vast, ironic intelligence from beyond, to witness humanity's attempt at ressurection.
Their answer to life, the universe and everything: 1973 FTW
