"Of course, to call Gibson a writer of science fiction
is to misunderstand him. Gibson's antecedents are more
William S.Burroughs and Thomas Pynchon than Arthur
C.Clarke - their strange, essentially poetic
assemblages of image and echo designed to explore the
inner textures of a culture that exists increasingly
outside time and space. The effect is probably nearest
to that of an intellectually rigorous brand of
video-art: suggestive, unsettling and unresolved. Its
meanings arise out of the play between elements,
rather than residing in them."
...enjoy!
