This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on the many points in the novel, after the surprise attack on Glen Runciter, Joe Chip, and the entire team of the inertials, where a seemingly dead and in cold-pac Runciter breaks through into the "reality" of those who think themselves survivors. At first this happens through strange written interventions, like a matchbook cover, graffiti, and notes, and through Runciter appearing on currency. As time goes on, the manifestations extend to video and even a meeting between Joe Chip and Glen Runciter.
