Title: “interface”

On this episode of Occulterati, Wes Unruh interviews cyberpunk author William Gibson about his novel Pattern Recognition, advertising, and storytelling.

“That’s always been where I am writing from, I’ve always known that I wasn’t writing about the future, that I was writing, looking at the present and transmogrifying it in some way, and exporting it through a sort of veil of faux-futurity. Where people might otherwise be too frightened to look at the present would be able to receive it as a sort of plaything and examine it from a different angle.”
