"Gibson said it in a short story somewhere. Cyberpunk is the stuff that has EDGE written all over it. You know, not edge, it's written EDGE. All capital letters. Now ask me how I'd define EDGE. Well, EDGE is not about definitions. To the contrary, things so well known that they provide an exact definition can't be EDGE. They probably once were but now they ain't. SO DON'T TRY TO DEFINE IT!!!"

Cyberpunk went in and out of media attention over the last couple of decades. It is a term losely defined but capable of spurring many ways of life as well as interesting stories.

On this page I have collected some interesting texts about CP. Most of them I have copied from the fabulous Cyberpunk Project:

Project Cyberpunk

Articles explaining aspects of Cyberpunk:

A Cyberpunk Manifesto

Why Cyberpunk?
