Like the previous two books it dwells in the now, which is appropriate given Gibson’s oft quoted koan: ‘The future is already here, it’s just unevenly distributed’. I have written the review in terms of general […]

I read Gibson’s seminal cyberpunk works a decade ago and felt it was time to visit Gibson’s more recent work. I am not reading them in order, just as they come off the shelf. Spook Country is set in a world similar to the one that we know, and closer in time to now, than […]

Hyundai Hyundai have pushed out a campaign to teach British people how to pronounce the companies name properly. This is a well trodden path for foreign brands like Hyundai. My childhood featured ‘Nestle’s Milky Bars’ as the advertising jingle ignored the é at the end of Nestlé. I can only presume that it would be […]

Armani is clearly putting […]
