[Lyrics]

I'll hold this down
Until I'm not around
When I die, lay me down
Show me the way you held out

I said it's undone
I said it's alright
And I heard that
We roll over

But I'm a stranger
Just a number
And I don't know which way to go

Saved by the light
Empty
Roving nights

They're colder alright
Yeah, you know that it's time
You said that you'd keep it in mind

And though I know of this crime
I did not know it was mine
Downward I'll say that that I know what I hate
I know what I left, and I know I'm behind

Save me again
Still I've got fate on my side
I know I'm holding you onto your seat
I'm gonna break a mountain today

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 one of the central themes involved in the plot and worldbuilding of the story, namely the existence of psionic talents such as telepathy and precognition, and the existence of anti-psionic talents (called inertials) that nullify those psionic talents. Most of the psionic and anti-psionic talents work for companies, like that of Ray Hollis or Glen Runciter

Philip Dick, Ubik - Psionic and Antipsionic Talents - Sadler's Lectures

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 role that "prudence organizations", that is companies that employ anti-psionic talents or "inertials" to block or combat psionic talents, play in the world of the novel. These prudence organizations also belong to a "society" which engages in action on their behalf against companies that employ psionic talents like telepaths and precogs. We get a glimpse of the kinds of advertisement appeals made by prudence organizations early on in the novel as well.

Philip Dick, Ubik - Prudence Organizations And The Society - Sadler's Lectures

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 one of the most central characters of the novel, Joe Chip, who we get introduced to in chapter 3 and who features in every chapter of the novel subsequent to that. We discuss in particular his role as a "tester" of psionic and anti-psionic talents and fields, his assuming leadership over the Runciter organization after the ambush that leaves Glen Runciter seemingly dead, his interactions with Patricia Conley, Glen Runciter, Jory Miller, and Ella Runciter, and Ella's plans for Joe to replace her as Glen Runciter's main advisor.

Philip Dick, Ubik - Joe Chip, Abilities Tester - Sadler's Lectures

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 one important character we meet early on in the work, Pat Conley, who has a seemingly new psionic talent, the ability to go back and change the past, which then alters the present, allowing her to nullify the talents of precogs in a different way. She is brought to Joe Chip's apartment for testing of her abilities, and uses her talent when he first submits a report advising not to hire her and then a fake report of her having a high level of talent but also being dangerous.  For some time in the novel, Joe and Glen Runciter believe her to be the main antagonistic force causing the deaths of other team members, but it turns out that she is not, and that she herself is mistaken about that

Sybil Psychonaut - Psychic Breakup Babe Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Listen up because I don't want to say this again
You started off as my loveliest friend,
Then you were my lover and soul person I confided in
and now your sinister truth boils over to my chagrin
We fell for each other young, we were Blue Flicker pupils
Blue lights guide our way, our lessons weren't simple
Psychic symbols play in my head even still, like movie rentals
You caught my eye when we were teens, back then I had a better handle on my mental
You and a few of our friends were the most gifted in the school
Your dark vibrations left traces, for a while I was blind to them and a fool

(Chorus)
We're pretty brilliant together, yeah that's true
When we put our minds together there is no astral barrier we can't break right through
I loved you so much but you stoke my chaos too,
I've glimpsed parallel dimensions where we were happy
Hmm, I guess in this life that's not you?
This is a psychic breakup, babe we're through
(psychic breakup, babe we're through)

(Play this message again when you wake up)
(Play this message again when you wake up)

(Verse 2)
Its been many years since we broke up but I still cry about it,
At night you walk into my dreams, and apologize to me nightly (I said go!)
When we were together it was too easy for your naked vibes to hype me
Your tender touch delighted me, my psionic flames shone purple and brightly
We would hook up for a fling the connection is high, the spark is mighty
We had a psychic break up, you switched and showed your true face
You're so gorgeous baby, even in your astral makeup!
(yuck)

(Chorus)
We're pretty brilliant together, yeah that's true
When we put our heads together there is no astral barrier we can't break right through
I loved you so much but you stoke my chaos too,
I've glimpsed parallel dimensions where we were happy
Hmm, I guess in this life that's not you?
This is a psychic breakup, babe we're through
(psychic breakup, babe we're through)
(Sometimes I consider scrubbing my mind of all the memories with you)

Psychic Breakup Babe

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 team of eleven "inertials," that is anti-psionic talents assembled by Glen Runciter to go to the lunar location of businessman Stanton Mick's company, and do a job eliminating the effects of various psionic talents, likely employed by Ray Hollis.  The team includes 4 anti-precogs, 4 anti-telepaths, 1 anti-animator, 1 anti-psychokineticist, and the as yet not entirely understood talent of Pat Conley.  Runciter and tester Joe Chip accompany them.

Philip Dick, Ubik - Runciter's Team of Inertials - Sadler's Lectures

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 ambush that Ray Hollis engineers, using Stanton Mick's company, based on the moon, as a potential new client for Runciter Associates. Glen Runciter, Joe Chip, and a team of 11 inertials (anti-psionic talents) fly to the location. They are asked not to take readings, which Joe Chip does anyways, discovering that Mick is actually a bomb in human disguise.  It turns out that there is a conspiracy that had been laid for quite a while, involving Hollis and his organization, perhaps Mick, Pat Conley, and Runciter's talent scout Ashwood.
