Rudy Rucker in the Guestbar

I'm really pleased to have Rudy Rucker as our guest blogger. He's my favorite author. I first met him at a Mondo 2000 party in 1985 in Berkeley, California. He read from his book, Wetware, and brought with him a little cardboard device he made that folded and unfolded, and as I recall, was supposed to be a shadow of a 4-dimensional cube.

Rudy also wrote a regular column for the print edition of bOING bOING. His story about going to Portugal with Robert Anton Wilson and Terrence McKenna was fantastic. (Do you have it on your hard disk, Rudy? It would be great to share with everyone.) If you've never had the pleasure of reading Rudy's work, you're in for a treat. Both his fiction and non-fiction is awe-inspiring, accessible, and funny. Welcome, Rudy!
