See also Literature, Cyberpunk Sci-Fi, Cyberspace, Critical Theory: An Overview Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 ... Coda Introduction When Neuromancer by William Gibson was first published it created a sensation. Or perhaps it would be more precise to say that it was used to create a sensation, for Bruce Sterling and other Gibson associates declared that a new kind of science fiction had appeared which rendered merely ordinary SF obsolete. Informed by the amoral urban rage of the punk subculture and depicting the developing human-machine interface created by the widespread use of computers and computer networks, set in the near future in decayed city landscapes like those portrayed in the film Blade Runner it claimed to be the voice of a new generation. (Interestingly, Gibson himself has said he had finished much of what was to be his body of early cyberpunk fiction before ever seeing Blade Runner.

24. William Gibson
    gibson.gif, william gibson (1948). william gibson Hinterlands william gibson is called the father of Cyberpunk by some, and is trashed as a poser by others.  
    http://www.levity.com/corduroy/gibson.htm
    
    Extractions: William Gibson is called "the father of Cyberpunk" by some, and is trashed as a poser by others. But one thing is clear. His book Neuromancer (1984), which won the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Awards that year, was the Christ-child of cyberpunk, whose road to superstardom was paved by the John the Baptist figures of Samuel Delaney, Roger Zelanzy, Philip K. Dick, and James Triptree, Jr. The books that followed in the "Sprawl" trilogy; Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive , created the seminal canon of cyberpunk that has inspired both a new generation of cyberpunk authors as well as cheap, stale cyberpunk knock-offs. So whether you are of the opinon that Gibson is a genius or a poser, there is no denying that he changed the direction of Science Fiction in the last decade. And not only is Gibson a trendsetter in fiction, he has also spoken out on many technological issues that face society today, including the use of the Internet for educational purposes. But on the flip side, he is adamant about abstaining from use of the Internet himself. He has said "I'm not a techie. I don't know how these things work. But I like what they do, and the new human processes that they generate." And in a sense, we are living Gibson's cyberpunk here and now, and it is not hard to imagine that is what our future will be like. He has denied that, however, saying, "People shouldn't look at science fiction like they look at "real" fiction. They shouldn't expect that this is what the future is going to look like. [Science fiction authors] are sort of charlatans; we come up with a few ideas and we make a living off of that."

25. Cyberphunk!
    Ett kort utdrag av en intervju utf¶rd 1995.  
    http://www.itv.se/boreale/cyberps.htm
    
    Extractions: Ett samtal med William Gibson. English version here. I fjol (1995) hade jag turen att träffa William Gibson, nedstående är ett utdrag av de mest allmänt intressanta delarna av vårt samtal (vilket var betydligt längre än vad som kan återges här). På de bilder som man sett av William Gibsons har han haft ett närmast uggleliknande utseende som starkt kontrasterat i förhållande till de hårdföra personer som figurerar i hans berättelser. En flyktig likhet med Woody Allen hade undermedvetet fått mig att vänta en timid personlighet. Detta visade sig vara en grov missbedömning då det visade sig att karln var våldsamt lång och förde sig med en hel del pondus. Min första frågade gällde Gibsons bakgrund, inte för att jag väntade mig något våldsamt spektakulärt -men ändock något udda med tanke på vissa av de ideér som dykt upp i hans böcker. Gibson: Jag växte upp i delstaten Virginia -en ensligt belägen landsbygdsstad i en bergig del av USA. Bodde där till 15 års åldern då jag började på ett gymnasium i Arizona så jag fick bo på elevhem nära skolan. Där träffade jag en massa häftiga typer från Californien och andra delar av Staterna -många av dem hade en långt mer vidsynt inställning till omvärlden än de flesta från min hemstad. Vid 19 års ålder tog jag studenten och då inte hade några omedelbara planer på att läsa vidare fanns det en viss risk att jag skulle bli inkallad -det här var vid den tid då USA förde krig i Vietnam. Så för att undvika militärtjänsten for jag till Kanada, nu dök det aldrig upp någon inkallelseorder så jag är egentligen inte en av dem som fick rättsliga problem av mitt ställningstagande mot kriget. Men jag trivdes i Kanada så jag har bott kvar där, de senaste åren i staden Vancouver på Kanadas västkust.

26. Technolgy In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein And William Gibson's Neuromancer
    Paper comparing technology in Frankenstein and in william gibson's Neuromancer.  
    http://www.geocities.com/Paris/5972/gibson.html
    
    Extractions: At first glance this topic could seem rather irrelevant having in mind that the two works are separated by more than a century. During this lapse of time, humanity has witnessed profound changes at a breath-taking speed. The partly Gothic and partly Romantic world of Mary Shelley is quite different from the reality Gibson predicts. We could not say, however, that there are no links between the two. Shelley's work could be viewed as the apprehension of the new-born fear in regard to technical invention and Gibson's work as the divination of the consequences of technological development and sophistication. In both cases the essence of human nature has barely changed. It is what lies behind the destructive human strife for more, more at any price that has led to the despondent conclusions of both works. In associating the two works it is useful to understand the historical context in which they were written. Frankenstein is distinctly related to the revolutionary period of 1780 to 1830 or the period of the first industrial revolution.

    Extractions: For information on how to contact Mr Gibson, read the Contact page. Welcome to William Gibson aleph , the essential information collection about contemporary writer William Gibson. In Gibson's novel 'Mona Lisa Overdrive', an aleph is a big chip which can store a huge amount of information. The intention of William Gibson aleph is to collect all available information on William Gibson and his work. For comments, suggestions, and questions write to Manuel Derra 17.02.04 So the aleph's fourth anniversary has passed unnoticed, rightly so because there doesn't seem to be much to celebrate. The last year has seen very few changes at the site, except for an evergrowing number of images in the image gallery (which now contains more than 700 items - whew!). I don't get many mails any more, probably because it's much easier to ask over at the

    Extractions: Just the facts, but far more complete than the other Johnny-come-lately "6 books and out" lists out there. All lists are in real-world chronological order. The chronology of the "Sprawl" series is Johnny Mnemonic short story - New Rose Hotel short story - Burning Chrome short story - Neuromancer - Count Zero - Mona Lisa Overdrive. Other stories in Burning Chrome fit more or less tightly into the imagined future of the series. By the time Gibson wrote the Skinner's Room short story - virtual light - Idoru - All Tomorrow's Parties sequence set closer in time, the near future had turned out different from the "Sprawl" future. There's a fascinating cyberpunk timeline at http://www.subsitu.com/cns/tl.htm that dovetails Gibson's work with the cyber, punk, and sf goings-on at the same time. the stories collected in Burning Chrome The Gernsback Continuum and Red Star, Winter Orbit

    Extractions: I’ve found blogging to be a low-impact activity, mildly narcotic and mostly quite convivial, but the thing I’ve most enjoyed about it is how it never fails to underline the fact that if I’m doing this I’m definitely not writing a novel – that is, if I’m still blogging, I’m definitely still on vacation. I’ve always known, somehow, that it would get in the way of writing fiction, and that I wouldn’t want to be trying to do both at once. The image that comes most readily to mind is that of a kettle failing to boil because the lid’s been left off.
