    Extractions: Born in Louisville, KY, Rudy Rucker went to private schools in Louisville then to Swarthmore College, majoring in Mathematics and to Rutgers University for his Master's and Ph.D. in Mathematics. His first SF novel was Spacetime Donuts some of which was published in a magazine called Unearth . Next came White Light and Software , both published by Ace. Software has been optioned to Phoenix Pictures. Rudy Rucker's Home Page Advertisement document.write(''); In White Light White Light As Rucker notes in his afterword, White Light has "nice visualizations of infinity, fine evocations of the time when it was written, heartfelt attempts to break through to ultimate truth, good surreal imagery, and lots of laughs." White Light has been on my to read list for years, and I'm pleased to see it available. Is it worth the price? Ummm. Are you a serious collector/Rucker fan? It's certainly worth reading. If you happen to be new to Rucker (SF's own mad mathemagician) I'd start with

    Extractions: How to subscribe to Booklist Magazine Rucker, Rudy. As Above, So Below. Dec. 2002. 304p. Tor/Forge, $23.95 (0-765-30403-1). What possesses a popular science fiction writer to write a historical novel about a sixteenth-century Flemish painter enamored of peasant ways? Unbridled fascination with the depiction of worlds real and imagined. Rucker’s keen insights into Peter Bruegel’s spellbinding and politically subversive work underpin this animated, suspenseful, and affecting tale, a step up from Tracy Chevalier’s Girl with a Pearl Earring (2000). Biographical information about Bruegel is scant, but Rucker’s sense that the painter was lively, compassionate, courageous, and determined feels right, and the characters Rucker invents to flesh out Bruegel’s violent and precarious universe are equally compelling, especially the cultured mapmaker Abraham Ortelius, who is so careful to conceal his homosexuality; the sexy and volatile half–Native American, Williblad Cheroo; and Bruegel’s smart, saucy wife. Just as Bruegel’s paintings are a great joy to behold even as they induce the viewer to face the grimmer aspects of life, Rucker’s vivid imagining of Bruegel’s trials and triumphs is set against a cutting indictment of the horrors of the Spanish occupation and Inquisition. Bruegel’s great gift was his perception of the sacred in the earthy, and Rucker follows suit in this vital portrait of a sweet-natured disciple of life’s fecund beauty in a time of cold-blooded tyranny.

Beagle is the class act of fantasy writing, the only contemporary to remind one of Tolkien and, in his darker moments, Dinesen. The title story here concerns a modest man who sets off on a perilous journey across high mountains and is rescued from fearsome rock-targs by a race of gentle giants. He lives among them, novel as Gulliver, for 18 years, learning of their curious funeral rite: eating their dead. In the long romance "The Last Song of Sirit Byar," a traveling bard works magic with his songs, saving his last and greatest song to bring an old love back from madness, dying as he sings it. In "The Magician of Karakosk," a country-bumpkin wizard foils an evil queen by leaving out just one step in the incantation he teaches her, so that she turns herself into nothing more than wind. One of these six stories, "Lal and Soukyan," uses characters from

    Extractions: Rudy Rucker [by Tom Georgoulias] Rudy Rucker has a lot of things on his mind. Although his day job has him teaching computer science and mathematics at San Jose State University, Rudy Rucker is a writer. He as written twenty nonfiction and science fiction books covering such topics as higher dimensions, artificial life, and biotechnology. Called the original cyberpunk author by many, his self described 'transreal' writing style is akin to Kerouac's On the Road and an issue of Scientific American after a run through the mince cycle on a blender. I recently had the chance to catch up with Rucker and discuss two of his most recent books, Seek! and Saucer Wisdom frontwheeldrive : I've been reading your new nonfiction collection Seek! , and I'd like to start with some computer science questions for you. You write about simulated evolution to develop machines that are as intelligent as their creators, yet today's AI research seems farther from reaching the goal of intelligent machines than ever. What do you see as the missing link necessary to bring AI research up to speed with your visions of intelligent machines? Rudy Rucker : There's a tendency to think that maybe if we can just throw enough hardware at the AI problem, then evolution can take care of the rest. Certainly that's how God went about making us. We evolved inside a planetary-sized round-the-clock simulation over maybe a billion years.

    Extractions: Rudy Rucker Revisited [by Tom Georgoulias] When I last spoke with Rudy Rucker, his non-fiction collection Seek! and science fiction novel Saucer Wisdom were just finding their way into bookstores. Since that time, Dr. Rucker has been hacking on a video game programming toolkit called the Pop Framework and keeping a low profile on the science fiction scene. After bouncing a few emails with him regarding an upcoming frontwheeldrive feature, it was obvious that we needed to do another interview and shed some light on his latest projects. Dr. Rucker's going to need four slots on the bookshelves this year to hold his latest works: the computer science textbook Software Engineering and Computer Games , a new science fiction novel Spaceland , a historical novel As Above So Below , and a reissue of The Hacker and The Ants are all coming online in 2002. He's also going to have a lot of clueless parents wondering why their children's homework isn't preventing them from playing video games. Here's what Dr. Rucker had to say about computer science research, video game programming, and what it would take to make a good Freeware movie: frontwheeldrive : What kinds of gnarly computer research (Cellular Automata, fractals, A-Life, etc.) are you actively doing these days?
