An incredible interview between Philip K. Dick and Charles Platt from 1979, where the legendary author discussed his life, his writing and the strange events that inspired his famed Exegesis. At nearly 2 hours long, this interview is essential listening for anyone with an interest in PKD.

Nice Rozz Tox tee, PKD!

Many thanks for posting!  By the way, the audio is a bit muffled

For the record, the audio I hear is not muffled.

Wow!
I have a threadbare Gary Panter “Roz Tox” t-shirt! That design was the masthead and title for Gary’s manifesto! Great guy, I studied under him at Otis Art Institute in L.A.

Nice!
I’ve heard these in fragments over the years and in lesser quality, so this is great!
Much obliged!

On a related note; I’d just been reading the other day about how William S. Burroughs coined the term ‘Heavy Metal’ in 1961 which has become known to describe a music genre as a term appearing in his 1962 novel The Soft Machine. His character Uranian Willy is described as “the Heavy Metal Kid.

oh man, i feel somewhat responsible for the unplanned appearance of this interview onto youtube, as i made the original digital audio files from the tapes for platt, but i’d like to say that i only shared these files privately with a couple fellow fans and did not encourage the unauthorized posting of this precious interview to youtube. hopefully platt will understand that digital media eventually becomes public whether you intend it or not. time will tell, i hope you all enjoy it as much as i have. -bryan
