	Postcyberpunk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Postcyberpunk describes a genre of science fiction which is believed to have emerged from the cyberpunk movement.
		Postcyberpunk possibly emerged because SF authors and the general population began using computers, the Internet, and PDAs to their benefit, without the massive social fragmentation of this Digital Revolution predicted in the 1970s and 1980s.
		Postcyberpunk novels and movies have as of 2004 yet to gain as widespread popularity as their precursors (the Matrix trilogy is usually considered cyberpunk).

	postcyberpunk
		Like their cyberpunk forebears, postcyberpunk works immerse the reader in richly detailed and skillfully nuanced futures, but ones whose characters and settings frequently hail from, for lack of a better term, the middle class.
		As a result, postcyberpunk frequently skirts the edge of what can be described in late 20th century English, be it the representation of data in fourth-dimensional Pikeover space in Slant to the intelligence-enhancing something that Maya realizes she's too old to embrace in Holy Fire.
		Yes, cyberpunk was about the early 1980s, while postcyberpunk is about the 1990s, and cyberpunk was largely written by people in their 20s and 30s, postcyberpunk by people in their late 30s and early 40s.

		Spider Jerusalem (named after science fiction author Spider Robinson) himself is clearly a futuristic re-imagining of previous "muck-raking" or "gonzo" journalists such as H.L. Mencken and Hunter S. Thompson (as well as an author surrogate for Warren Ellis).
		Jerusalem dedicates himself to fighting the corruption and abuse of power of two successive United States presidents; he and his assistants strive to keep their world from turning more dystopian than it already is.

		Snow Crash, by Neal Stephenson, is often considered one of the key books to postcyberpunk literature, a sub-genre of sci-fi that was started in the late 80s.
		Postcyberpunk books were a look into the future by sci-fi authors at the dawn of the age of really wide-spread home computing, and so most feature plots that are very computer-centric.
		The future is flashy, as postcyberpunk is laced with style.

		In addition, some people say that works such as Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash define a postcyberpunk category, though whether this category is distinct may be only a matter of definition.
		Person's essay advocates using the term "postcyberpunk" to label the new works such writers produce.
		In this view, typical postcyberpunk stories continue the preoccupation with the effects of computers, but without the assumption of dystopia or the emphasis on cybernetic implants.

		Whereas "Cyberpunk typically deals with alienated loners in a dystopia", "postcyberpunk tends to deal with characters who are more involved with society and act to defend and existing social order or create a better society".
		In the first Matrix film, the narrative is concentrated on a single rag-tag team, a band of loners that seem in their desperate quest to be isolated by its own pre-set conditions.
		The narrative begins cross-cutting not only between two lines of action, in the real and the virtual settings of this diegetic story world, but between several so that the city of "Zion" insofar as its citizens are represented becomes another character of narrative action.

		Esta novela daba fin, en opinión de muchos, al cyberpunk e inaguraba, en opinión de otros, una nueva corriente que denominaron postcyberpunk.
		Posteriormente se siguió escribiendo cyberpunk, pero cada vez más mezclado con otros subgéneros y corrientes, hasta que en la actualidad ha desaparecido como corriente diferenciada para ser un elemento más con el que conformar las novelas de ciencia ficción que se publican hoy en día.
		El género emergente llamado postcyberpunk continúa preocupándose por los efectos de los ordenadores, pero sin dar por supuesta la distopía ni dar tanta importancia a los implantes cibernéticos.

		Matt sent a link to me last night from wikipedia -- all about postcyberpunk.
		I think an integral part of postcyberpunk is a use of language -- a sense of language that begins to evoke information overload (the really and truly world of the internet) rather than the cool, polished burnished steel language of the early cyberpunk (the imagined world of silicon).

		The term "postcyberpunk" was first used in 1991 to describe Neal Stephenson's science-fiction novel Snow Crash.
		The postcyberpunk subgenre of science fiction is believed to have emerged from the cyberpunk movement, and also focuses on technological developments in near-future societies.
		Probably the greatest differentiating factor of this genere, as compared to "classic" cyberpunk, is that the works in this category feature protagonists who act to improve social conditions, or protect society from further decay.

		This is postCyberpunk, and the 'post' is a very important switch-word.
		Cyberpunk posited a bleak and hopeless future of corporate dominantion and alienation to technology that changed faster than people could adopt.
		PostCyberpunk instead posits worlds where people have managed to integrate their lives with the technology and the big question is not over the hopelessness of mankind, but over what new society and social order will come to pass.

	Toward a Postcyberpunk Manifesto - Lawrence Person
		Notes Toward a Postcyberpunk Manifesto by Lawrence Person "Critics, myself included, persist in label-mongering, despite all warnings; we must, because it's a valid source of insight-as well as great fun." - Bruce Sterling, from the introduction to Mirrorshades Bud, from Neal Stephenson's The Diamond Age, is a classic cyberpunk protagonist.
		An aggressive, fl-leather clad criminal loner with cybernetic body augmentations (including a neurolinked skull gun), Bud makes his living first as a drug runner's decoy, then by terrorizing tourists for money.
