	Wetware - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wetware, also known as liveware or meatware, is a term generally used to refer to a person operating a computer.
		The term is probably drawn from the novels of Rudy Rucker, who often used the term (even as a title of one of his books) to refer to the human nervous system, as opposed to computer hardware or software.
		The field of artificial intelligence complicates the concept of wetware, since in that case, the hardware/software would be acting on its own.

	CTHEORY.NET > RU Wetware? by Arthur Kroker
		In the Australian optic, televisual space is condensed into a violent event-scene, where TV can finally become what it always aspired to, but heretofore could never attain: a purely metaphysical structure for a virtualized experience where cybernetics is philosophy and vision is (telematically) severed from the bounded space of the eye.
		Wetware is the philosophical obsession of the Dutch mind: that cybernetic point where hard- and soft technoware finally break free of their sequestration in computer design, and enter the galaxy of bodily fluids.
		So the body must be dried out, made "static free." That is the thesis of Wetware, a remarkable collection of critical artistic perspectives on cybernetics dipped in bodily fluids, published as part of Amsterdam's summer festival.

		He commits the ultimate wetware crime by making them fertile, so that their doctored DNA has the potential to enter the human gene pool.
		Every moderately well-read SF fan knows that "wetware" is a term invented by Rudy Rucker and in use well before his 1988 novel of that name.

		Wetware Review: Rucker's "Wetware" is one of those books that confirms everything bad that some people believe about Science Fiction.

		One of my personal beefs with music that falls to firmly in "goth" or "EBM" or "Industrial" categories is that you tend to end up with entire albums where every song on the record sounds like every other, both musically and lyrically.
		Wetware mixes it up, putting electro touches on goth-style songs, rock touches into EBM music, flurishes of ambient, classical, etc. to make the whole much more interesting and memorable.
