ABOUT THE AUTHOR
ONE OF THE ORIGINAL DREAD LORDS of science fiction’s cyberpunk movement, Rudolf von Bitter Rucker is the great-great-great-grandson of philosopher G.W.F. Hegel.
Since his incarnation in 1946, Rucker has been a mathematician, science author (The Fourth Dimension), online editor (Flurb), award-winning SF writer (two Philip K. Dick Awards for his Ware novels) and an old-school computer hacker.
He also paints.
A native of Kentucky, he lives in Silicon Valley with his wife, a Hungarian beauty.
These are indisputably momentous times -the financial system is melting down globally and the Empire is stumbling. Now more than ever there is a vital need for radical ideas.
In the four years since its founding—and on a mere shoestring—PM Press has risen to the formidable challenge of publishing and distributing knowledge and entertainment for the struggles ahead. With over 175 releases to date, we have published an impressive and stimulating array of literature, art, music, politics, and culture. Using every available medium, we’ve succeeded in connecting those hungry for ideas and information to those putting them into practice.
Friends of PM allows you to directly help impact, amplify, and revitalize the discourse and actions of radical writers, filmmakers, and artists. It provides us with a stable foundation from which we can build upon our early successes and provides a much-needed subsidy for the materials that can’t necessarily pay their own way. You can help make that happen —and receive every new title automatically delivered to your door once a month—by joining as a Friend of PM Press. And, we’ll throw in a free T-Shirt when you sign up.
Here are your options:
$25 a month: Get all books and pamphlets plus 50% discount on all webstore purchases
$40 a month: Get all PM Press releases (including CDs and DVDs) plus 50% discount on all webstore purchases
$100 a month: Superstar—Everything plus PM merchandise, free downloads, and 50% discount on all webstore purchases
For those who can’t afford $25 or more a month, we’re introducing Sustainer Rates at $15, $10 and $5. Sustainers get a free PM Press t-shirt and a 50% discount on all purchases from our website.
Your Visa or Mastercard will be billed once a month, until you tell us to stop. Or until our efforts succeed in bringing the revolution around. Or the financial meltdown of Capital makes plastic redundant. Whichever comes first.
PM PRESS was founded at the end of 2007 by a small collection of folks with decades of publishing, media, and organizing experience. PM Press co-conspirators have published and distributed hundreds of books, pamphlets, CDs, and DVDs. Members of PM have founded enduring book fairs, spearheaded victorious tenant organizing campaigns, and worked closely with bookstores, academic conferences, and even rock bands to deliver political and challenging ideas to all walks of life. We’re old enough to know what we’re doing and young enough to know what’s at stake.
We seek to create radical and stimulating fiction and non-fiction books, pamphlets, t-shirts, visual and audio materials to entertain, educate and inspire you. We aim to distribute these through every available channel with every available technology—whether that means you are seeing anarchist classics at our bookfair stalls; reading our latest vegan cookbook at the café; downloading geeky fiction e-books; or digging new music and timely videos from our website.
PM Press is always on the lookout for talented and skilled volunteers, artists, activists and writers to work with. If you have a great idea for a project or can contribute in some way, please get in touch.
