Talk:Christophers intro to Neuromancer and Cyberpunk/@comment-44870336-20200202193444

This course has introduced me to the book Neuromancer, written by William Gibson. I had not gotten into the genre of cyberpunk, but it definitely reminds me of films I used to enjoy back in the day such as The Matrix. I feel like there was definitely some inspiration for that series of films drawn from the book and the futuristic world portrayed in Neuromancer which features alternate realities and fights with Artificial Intelligence. The book is extensively descriptive in building this fantasy world, which to be honest has more and more become a reality as time went on and it was originally published. It is an interesting read, and would recommend to anyone with an open mind and interested in completely original storytelling.
