A Quote:

"There sit the knights that were so great of hand,
The ladies that were queens of fair green land,
Grown grey and black now, brought unto the dust,
Soiled, without raiment, clad about with sand."
- Algernon Charles Swinburne.

Review: ¿Sueñan los androides con ovejas eléctricas?

¿Sueñan los androides con ovejas eléctricas? ¿Sueñan los androides con ovejas eléctricas? by Philip K. Dick
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Phillip Dick was an absolute visionary, and Ridley Scott took the best form this novel and put ir on the big screen. This is like reading the Akira manga after watching the movie: entering a familiar territory that's not so familiar. But all the things you love from the film are here. Deckard is somehow different, more passinate about collecting animals (preferred alive, because there are a lot of electric sheep and other wonders), but with the same moral dilemmas and a wife. Things with the andys (replicants) are weirder, much more detailed than in the film. Mercerism is an absolute nutty religion. Radioactive dead zones surround the megalopolis. Some turn of events are not particularly well done, but are well managed afterwards. A must for SF and Blade Runner fans.

Review: Exit Reality

Exit Reality Exit Reality by Valentina Tanni
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An amazing tour of all the virtual aesthethics born within internet, from the purely visual (like dreamcore), to music (vaporwave, haunthology), to creepypastas (backrooms et all), going with very profound reflections about futures not realized, past that is memories not lived, presents of yuxtaposing images with questions about the self. A must to understand the tissue that connects the experiencies that are begotten and live on internet.
