But he clearly had fond reminiscences of the drugs!
Ah yes...I know that feeling

Seriously, though, if you want jump in at the deep end with PKD and get a terrific plot to go with it, Valis isn't the place to start, try The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch, one of the most mindbending books ever written. It's also a bit scary in a "this author is losing his mind and I can totally see what he means" way.

I've never heard of any of them.
Filmmaker and writer Adam Scovell delights in remixing and reworking the photographic techniques and film stock of the past to disturbing new ends. In his latest work, a trailer for a nonexistent 70s TV series of J.G. Ballard’s High-Rise, he captures the novel’s atmosphere with brutal relish. Here he talks about Ballard’s impact on the television of that era.

When Kevin "Wired" Kelly worked with the Whole Earth Catalog, he happened to receive a piece of mail from renowned scifi author Robert Heinlein. Apparently Kelly had mailed Heinlein, and in response he got this bizarre form letter that Heinlein sent to all his correspondents. The author would simply check the appropriate box in answer and mail it off. What's great about the letter is that some of the boxes refer to extremely granular things, like references to obscure articles about science in long-gone publications.
