Reading from JOURNALS at Borderlands. June 13, 2015
At Borderlands Books, about 45 minutes, including long Q & A. Some passages read are the same as in Santa Cruz, but most are different. Reading was followed by an "art tour" of 15 of my paintings hanging on the walls in Borderlands. Access my audio and video of the tour on YouTube: http://youtu.be/9ifUih4ji38.

Reading from JOURNALS in Santa Cruz. May 1, 2015.
Event in Santa Cruz, sponsored by Scott Clements of LOGOS Books. The tape includes part of an introduction by Andrew Sivak, the organizer of the "Santa Cruz College" lecture series. I read about six passages from my JOURNALS, and then we did Q&A. Good sound quality and a lively, responsive crowd.

Discussing THE HOLLOW EARTH, March 24, 2015
I was interviewd by Robin Ince for a BBC Channel 4 broadcast on the theme of the Hollow Earth. I never heard the show, but this recording of my comments, made in my home by Mark Mollineaux, has really excellent sound quality. The file doesn't include Robin Ince's prompts, just my statements about the history of the Hollow Earth concept and about my novel THE HOLLOW EARTH, available at http://www.rudyrucker.com/thehollowearth.

Reading & Discussion. Jude Feldman, Robert Shults, Rudy: Laser Shades, Nov 8, 2014
An event for Robert Shults's book THE SUPERLATIVE LIGHT at Borderlands Books. I taped Borderlands manager Jude Feldman talking about the history of the store, followed by Robert's rap about his book of photos of the Texas Petawatt Laster Lab, followed---at the 18 minute mark---by my story, "Laser Shades," an animated reading I might say, and then a little more talk about the technology of lasers. Kind of a cinema verite podcast. (57MB, 47 min).

"Laser Shades," June 10, 2014.
Rucker reads his short SF story, "Laser Shades," written for Robert Shults's photo book THE SUPERLATIVE LIGHT, which contains photos of the Austin, Texas, Petawatt Laser Lab. Taped in Rucker's home studio, good sound.

Richard Kadrey reads "Surfing the Khumbu," Oct 18, 2014
Kadrey reads his woman/machine story at the Dark Lords of Cybperpunk event, Lit Crawl 2014. Due to an operator glitch, the first minute of the reading is missing, with a couple of *zzts* in the second minute. From then on it's pure pleasure. Our heroine rides a crashing satellite like it's a roller-coaster. You can read this story online in Infinite Matrix. http://www.infinitematrix.net/stories/shortshorts/kadrey27.html
