Where the main character Darby Blanko, falls into an animation tank. A tank that stops a soul from reaching trancendence. After finding the truth about the mysterious death of Jessi the main protangonist that propells the story. Her soul merges with him and reconstructs his DNA. Resulting in super powers like lightining fast speed, he can look into a persons mind and read their souls, plus he can suck in energy around him and shoot out white heat electricity that he can control the angels of projectery. He'll be called Neon. Suicide is awful too many artist were lost to such tragic events. Kurt Cobain, Jack Kerouac, Jesse Berstein, etc. Sucks, such a bull**** act. Anyway sounds like a great arthur. Hey rudy I picked up a book from 1959 with short stories by Philip K. Dick and Ray Bradbury. It has a funny lloking bursting rocket on the bottom and is mostly white. It's a best new Sci-Fi collection. It has "Father Thing" by Dick which is amazing. TAKE CARE!! JON Hey Steve, Echo Of A Scream is going to be a comic book story.

I saw this on the BBC about The art of mathematics http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7617191.stm The 4th Dimension picture looked especially good.

But then, I'm either a monk or an insane person(I forget which). Yes, Rudy as mandatory reading for high school kids sounds about right. Rudy, I don't have the patience for an infinite jest. Wouldn't it have to be recursive in some way anyhow? And, ARGH, another worthwhile person does himself in! Here I am trying to live to be 1000 and people are throwing their lives away all around. It's depressing. Sets a bad example. The hospital painting is pretty choice, racked brain and all. I dread and fear hospitals with good reason. The fish is great and should be included with the Flurb. Tartar sauce on the side. Jon, if it was a dystopian cyberpunk novel I’d call it Lord of the Files.

Hmmmmmm...Looks like the Wanderer has found his very own personal firewall...or perhaps some sort of freight train! Very dynamic and dramatic sort of whooshing going on there. Rocks?

In hindsight, his story "Good Old Neon," in his story anthology <em>Oblivion</em>, might be viewed as a warning flag that he was in danger. This collection made a big impression on me when I read it, see <a target="blank" href="http://www.rudyrucker.com/blog/2005/06/13/david-foster-wallace-ioblivioni/" rel="nofollow">my old post</a> about it. And it woudl be no exaggeration to say that Wallace's long novel<em> Infinite Jest</em> changed my life. Ed Champion has a nice collection of authors' tributes to Wallace <a target="blank" href="http://www.edrants.com/remembering-david-foster-wallace/" rel="nofollow">on his blog</a>. Adios, King.

I've been getting intensely into souls lately. Writing a short-story now called +/- about the Semper Eadem Wars in the future. Where doppleghanger shadows in dimension 4 try to steal Sacred Ores, souls with Intense Energy Properties. Their intent is to fold their Dimension into ours and thusly elimanating our relaity. They kill the people with Sacred Ores in them, which are souls but more powerful. All victims die under mysterious circumstances. Soul-Hackers are the only hope to unraveling the mysteries of souls. Also each soul is connected to both Dimension by Invisible Membrane Strings like a Guide Line for energies. Sacred Ores possess the energy needed to unfold Dimension 4 onto Earth. Monks and insane people are also key players in combating the threat of the Shadows. People in deep Meditative states or out of their heads cross the Dimensional Threshold into the Dimension 4. Still working out a bunch of ideas to it and Rudy if I may ask can I incorporate themes from the painting and a mention of you into the story. I plan on submiting it to F & SF when I finish it?? Anyway take care and keep up the great work. And this will all tie into a Dystopian Cyberpunk Novel I'm also plotting right now called Echo Of A Scream. This world needs more creative people like you Rudy. I hope one day that the old suits in the ancient universities recognize the merits of you literary genius and have a couple of your books as mandatory reading for highschoolers like the Lord Of The Flies is right now.

I realize the difference is very subtle, but it's an important one) Speaking of "Cerebral Hemorrhage," a few years ago, Ram Dass had a stroke. Later, after he had recovered sufficiently, he referred to it as "being 'Stroked' by God". I think I can do without that kind of strokin' thankee kindly.
