In "Clans of the Alphane Moon" by Philip K. Dick, a planet is colonized as an insane asylum, then abandoned, so that its inmates develop their own society and cultures. Tom Merritt, host of "Sword and Laser" joins to answer: what happens when pathologies become the basis of civilization, rather than its aberrations?

Lovecraft, o teólogo (Anfiteatro do Esquecimento - ep. 08) “Arrasado o jardim, profanados os cálices e os altares, entraram a cavalo os hunos na biblioteca monástica e rasgaram os livros incompreensíveis e os injuriaram e queimaram, talvez temerosos de que as letras encobrissem blasfêmias contra seu deus, que era uma cimitarra de ferro. Arderam palimpsestos e códices, mas no coração da fogueira, entre as cinzas, permaneceu quase intato o livro duodécimo da 'Civitas Dei', que narra que Platão ensinou em Atenas e, no fim dos séculos, todas as coisas recuperarão seu estado anterior, e que ele, em Atenas, diante do mesmo auditório, de novo ensinará essa doutrina.“ (“Os teólogos”, de Jorge Luis Borges) Howard Phillips Lovecraft transformou-se e adquiriu, após sua morte, novos poderes necromânticos. Sua imensa influência atual ultrapassa os limites das mídias, do tempo e do espaço, Mas qual seria a natureza última desse fascínio? Seriam suas sombrias crenças uma fé cega na aniquilação? Oferecemos algumas rudimentares ferramentas para tais reflexões.

Welcome to the Alphane Moon, a disputed territory currently held by the human race. A place where an individual can live in relative peace with like-minded individuals. And by 'like-minded' I mean 'share a psychosis.' The boys disagree on a lot of parts of PKD's 14th published novel of divorce and mental illness costarring a psychic blob, a Hollywood showman/intergalactic spy, and a sadsack divorcee who writes propaganda speeches for the C.I.A. Plus: The intergalactic pitfalls of confusing Gannymedians and Alphanes. Everything is worse with Rob Schneider in it. And imagining J.G. Ballard's version of the novel.

I return to my solo-run through Philip K. Dick's novels, this time touching down on the Alphane Moon to discuss misogyny, the psychopathology of power, and the utopian potential of empathy. Utopian Horizons is a podcast about utopia. Each episode covers a different utopia, dystopia, utopian thinker, or utopian movement, asking what they can tell us about ourselves, our society, and our future. Music: The Fiction of Utopian Studies/The Road To Oceania by The Fucked Up Beat.
A one off episode giving my thougths and complete review of "Clans of the Alphane Moon" by Philip K. Dick.
And that is all she wrote for "The Simulacra". Here are my final thoughts. Up next is a one off episode on "The Clans of the Alphane Moon"
In "Shell Game", a preview of his great novel "Clans of the Alphane Moon", Dick explores the military, paranoia, and mental illness. Are our delusions products of our environment and training?
