The Third Culture Home About Edge Features Edge Editions ... Edge Search "We sailed northeast. After two weeks we left the Pentacles behind. This part of the Sea of Dust was monopolized by a peculiar lifeform known as the lilypad. There were hundreds of acres of these strange plants. Their photosynthetic organ was a single round leaf, yards in diameter but only an inch thick. It floated on the surface, absorbing as much sunlight as possible. The gray sea was greenly polka-dotted with thousands of the plants; they were free-floating and strangely sensitive. When disturbed, the leaf curled inwards, wrinkling over its entire surface and withdrawing completely into its root; a thick, round bulb. This immediately sank its the opaque depths, away from the reach of herbivores." - from Involution Ocean Bruce Sterling BRUCE STERLING was born in 1954 in Brownsville, Texas. His grandfather was a rancher, his father an engineer. Sterling, purportedly a novelist by trade, actually spends most of his time aimlessly messing with computers, modems, and fax machines. He and his wife Nancy have a daughter Amy, born in 1987. They live in Austin, Texas. Sterling sold his first science fiction story in 1976. His solo novels include

El verdadero rostro del ciberpunk Mirrorshades , recopilación de Bruce Sterling Doce años después de su publicación original, llega a España Mirrorshades . Considerando que se trata de una antología de la relevancia que tuvo en su momento y que ha tardado todos estos años en ser publicada aquí, es posible a partir de este hecho realizar algunas extrapolaciones. Para empezar, ¿estamos seguros de que la cf atraviesa un momento tan malo como parece o las circunstancias nos están hurtando el conocer la realidad? A juzgar por esta antología, que pese a su fama permanecía inédita, hay talento ahí fuera. El por qué no lo conocemos sería digno de otro estudio. Pero parece difícil que los autores de relatos como “Stone vive” (Paul di Filippo) o “Zona libre” (John Shirley) no hayan dicho otras muchas cosas dignas de interés. Sin embargo, creo que nos enfrentamos a la primera traducción de Di Filippo al castellano y la segunda de Shirley. Y para seguir, ¿sabemos realmente qué es el ciberpunk? La sensación tras cerrar las páginas de Mirrorshades es que la imagen de este movimiento que hemos tenido es más bien tópica, tal vez de forma intencional. Sí, en este libro hay ordenadores, pero nunca son protagonistas, y no hay ni una sola escena de realidad virtual. Lo que sí encontramos es mucho pesimismo, futuro cercano, tacos, ese batiburrillo multinacional que ya conocemos por William Gibson, drogas y todo tipo de adicciones, sexo y rock and roll. Lo que tenemos son, en resumen, las preocupaciones de la calle trasladadas a la cf; escritores que no tienen su vida ligada a viejos libros de aventuras espaciales sino a un entorno comprensible, joven y actual, que se limitan a extrapolar. Eso, comprensiblemente, puede resultar molesto para quienes quieren una cf cerrada. Porque lo que ofrece

Technology Summary Holy Fire's setting is America at the end of the 21st century. A gerontocracy is firmly in place and in many older persons are reaping the benefits of life-extending technology. Mia Ziemann, the protagonist of this "cybersuspense" novel, is a 94 year-old medical economist who has a life-altering visit with a dying ex-lover. Could she become the person she had wanted to become so many decades agosomeone much more adventuresome? In order to do so, she needs to undergo an experimental treatmentNTDCD (Neo-telemeric Dissipative Cellular Detoxification)that does not just halt the aging process, but reverses it. NTDCD involves numerous ordeals including clogging her digestive tract with a sterilizing putty, filling her lungs with a sterilizing oxygenating fluid, replacing her cerebrospinal fluid (producing profound unconsciousness), being fetally submerged in a gelatinous tank of support fluids where the bacteria in her body are removed, and then receiving DNA treatments. If she survives the treatment the question remains whether or not she'll be able to survive as a young person in a world that favors the old.

It's the New American Holiday.Bruce Sterling takes the kids to the Temporary Autonomous Zone,where survival is a personal choice. By Bruce Sterling Thursday, August 29 Stopped at the gas station for directions to the Burning Man Festival. Grizzled, portly Nevadan local growls: "If ya have to ask, you don't belong there!" As if anybody was gonna drive all the way to Gerlach, Nevada (population 340), for some other reason.The gas station was packed with mobile homes and junker slackermobiles. The guy relented and gave us directions. Seems a multiple-pierced and tattooed lovely in a clingy peach taffeta costume had melted his heart. Drove 16 miles. Then drove another 12 miles across the bottom of a very dead lake. Driving across the playa is like space travel: you point the front of the vehicle into emptiness and launch. Gaseous tails of flying white dust spurt up like jet exhaust. Cars and trucks leave huge wakes on the horizon, like white prairie fires. If the wind kicks up, the world becomes a twilight zone of milky haze. Driving fast in a whiteout dust fog is an excellent way to get killed. We're in a 22-foot Ford recreational vehicle, in which I've brought the family to Burning Man: Nancy Sterling (wife, mom), Amy Sterling (9 years), and the littlest desert fox, Laura of Arabia, a hardened travel veteran at 4 months. We've never lived in an RV before. It's a mutant cross between an aircraft and a small chunk of suburbia. It's brand-new, but it shudders, moans, vibrates, rattles, squeaks, and emits foul generator exhaust.

Classic quote: "I've been asked to explain why I don't worry much about the topics of privacy threat raised by this panel. And I don't. One reason is that these scenarios seem to assume that there will be large, monolithic bureaucracies (of whatever character, political or economic) that are capable of harnessing computers for one-way surveillance of an unsuspecting populace. I've come to feel that computation just doesn't work that way. Being afraid of monolithic organizations especially when they have computers, is like being afraid of really big gorillas especially when they are on fire." comp_game_designers.article

51. The Hacker Crackdown The Civil Libertarians Part four of the electronic release of Bruce Sterling's book detailing how illicit copies of Apple source code led to the FBI visiting Barlow and triggered the founding of the EFF. http://www.farcaster.com/sterling/part4.htm

PART FOUR: THE CIVIL LIBERTARIANS The story of the Hacker Crackdown, as we have followed it thus far, has been technological, subcultural, criminal and legal. The story of the Civil Libertarians, though it partakes of all those other aspects, is profoundly and thoroughly *political.* In 1990, the obscure, long-simmering struggle over the ownership and nature of cyberspace became loudly and irretrievably public. People from some of the oddest corners of American society suddenly found themselves public figures. Some of these people found this situation much more than they had ever bargained for. They backpedalled, and tried to retreat back to the mandarin obscurity of their cozy subcultural niches. This was generally to prove a mistake. But the civil libertarians seized the day in 1990. They found themselves organizing, propagandizing, podium- pounding, persuading, touring, negotiating, posing for publicity photos, submitting to interviews, squinting in the limelight as they tried a tentative, but growingly sophisticated, buck-and-wing upon the public stage. It's not hard to see why the civil libertarians should have this competitive advantage.

We did the usual Call for Questions thing Monday. We didn't get quite as many as we've had for some other interview subjects here, but sometimes quality is more important than quantity, and we sent Bruce some beauts. His answers are of similar excellence, and are well worth reading even if you have never read any of his work or even if you despise science fiction. So click below, read, and enjoy! Lemmy Caution asks: A lot of your work recently has been on the Viridian project - a movement dedicated to innovative, practical, and far-reaching responses to environmental crisis. You've focused on the use of design and engineering to create a less destructive way of living on this planet. You're doing so in a way that seeks to avoid politics - you'll name names, but seem unwilling to pitch battles. Is this fatalism, or an attempt to preserve consensus in a movement that includes both libertarians and communitarians?

RECENT INTERVIEWS Chris Carter David Boreanaz of Angel Harry Selick of ... The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne Bruce Sterling is helping dream the future into existence By Courtney Barry uturistic writer Bruce Sterling has just completed his 14th novel, entitled Tomorrow, Now , which is due out from Random House in the next few months. Recently, at a high-tech conference in Austin, Texas, Sterling took some time out to share his futuristic views and what we can expect in the coming century. In his eyes it'll be nothing short of a "meat market," where "the relationship between human flesh and time will come together." In addition, he says geneticsor rather the manipulation of geneticsas well as intensified product design and new world disorder will be the ongoing themes in the 21st century. So will the continued development of highly personalized computer gadgets such as the Frog and the Palm. As an example, Sterling points to a small, slender, finger-shaped tape recorder as he talks, explaining it as the new digital tape recorder, which is "tiny, tactile and finger-friendly," a more '90s tech design, compared to the tape recorders of the past, which are "square, black and businesslike" and designed in the '70s. The future that you see in your book, if you could describe it in a paragraph, like somebody describing the movie

Bruce Sterling can be called an author, a journalist, an editor, a critic or many other things. He is adept at them all. He is the author of Involution Ocean The Artificial Kid Schismatrix Islands in the Net Heavy Weather (1994), and Holy Fire Bruce Sterling Tribute Site Bruce Sterling agreed to chat with me about cyberpunk, the 19th Century, government-sponsored orgies during the Roman Empire, and technology in general all this after a two-hour session in which he talked in front of two dozen fans about his new novel, Holy Fire from Bantam Spectra. Undaunted, he was in high spirits, making incredible leaps and connections but what more can you expect from a Hugo winner? You're probably going to go to your grave, and folks will identify you as part of the first wave of cyberpunk writers, no matter what you've done after that period. How do you see Holy Fire do you consider it cyberpunk? How would you answer critics who claim it is just "another cyberpunk novel"?
