Week four

Cyberspace and Cyberpunk!

In this weeks lecture we had a rather fascinating discussion upon both cyberspace and cyberpunk to which are an ever growing and important piece of the puzzle in each and every one of our lives.

In todays’ society, technology is everywhere we turn, making it extremely difficult to stay away from, even if we wanted to. Cyberspace, a realm involving electronic communication, is something that most of us would undoubtedly spend a great majority of our time glued to merely for it’s social networking sites such as facebook, twitter and instagram as well as other popular sites such as youtube. Information on the internet is constantly changing with new updates available and new websites being created, making it hard to avoid when everything you can ever imagine and need is already up for grabs just by the click of a button.

All in all, cyberspace is part of reality. It is an ‘information superhighway’ (Al Gore), to which we are all addicted. The world is changing as it becomes more and more technologically advanced everyday, it’s almost hypnotizing.
