Art & Technology

Following the purchase of a box at a garage sale that contains, among other things, an interview with an unknown artist, a novelty post card, a travel chess set, technical papers, unpublished stories and a coloring book, the author suddenly finds himself standing at the intersection of language, art and technology. It is a busy intersection. While waiting for the bus to show up, he uses the time and the tools at hand to answer those ageless questions that have kept so many great minds busy over the millennia. What is the true nature of consciousness? What is the difference between language and reality, especially when you're trying to state the facts? What is art? What isn't? Does every political system eventually evolve to totalitarianism? How quickly can things change before the human mind stops caring one way or the other? Is virtual reality destined to become the best low cost alternative to physical reality for the poor and destitute? Why is it that every time you change lanes in rush hour traffic the lane you are in stops moving and the lane you were in takes off? Are ghosts real? Do aliens believe in them? The novel Art & Technology attempts to answer these and many other equally important questions.
