1. What is cyberpunk, the literary movement?
The first use of "cyberpunk" to designate a body of literature is
generally credited to Gardner Dozois, who, at the time (the early
'80s), was editor of _Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine_. He is
thought to have cribbed it from the title of a short story by Bruce
Bethke, "Cyberpunk". (Bethke has since proclaimed himself to be an
"anti-cyberpunk".)
Before its christening, the "cyberpunk movement", known to its members
as "The Movement", had existed for quite some time, centered around
Bruce Sterling's samizdat, _Cheap Truth_. Authors like Sterling,
Rucker, and Shirley submitted articles pseudonymously to this
newsletter, hyping the works of people in the group and vigorously
attacking the "SF mainstream". This helped form the core "movement
consciousness". (The run of _Cheap Truth_ is available by anonymous
FTP in the directory "etext.archive.umich.edu:/pub/Zines/CheapTruth".)
Cyberpunk literature, in general, deals with marginalized people in
technologically-enhanced cultural "systems". In cyberpunk stories'
settings, there is usually a "system" which dominates the lives of
most "ordinary" people, be it an oppresive government, a group of
large, paternalistic corporations, or a fundamentalist religion. These
systems are enhanced by certain technologies (today advancing at a
rate that is bewildering to most people), particularly "information
technology" (computers, the mass media), making the system better at
keeping those within it inside it. Often this technological system
extends into its human "components" as well, via brain implants,
prosthetic limbs, cloned or genetically engineered organs, etc. Humans
themselves become part of "the Machine". This is the "cyber" aspect of
cyberpunk.
However, in any cultural system, there are always those who live on
its margins, on "the Edge": criminals, outcasts, visionaries, or those
who simply want freedom for its own sake. Cyberpunk literature focuses
on these people, and often on how they turn the system's technological
tools to their own ends. This is the "punk" aspect of cyberpunk.
The best cyberpunk works are distinguished from previous work with
similar themes by a certain style. The setting is urban, the mood is
dark and pessimistic. Concepts are thrown at the reader without
explanation, much like new developments are thrown at us in our
everyday lives. There is often a sense of moral ambiguity; simply
fighting "the system" (to topple it, or just to stay alive) does not
make the main characters "heroes" or "good" in the traditional sense.
---
2. What is cyberpunk, the subculture?
Spurred on by cyberpunk literature, in the mid-1980's certain groups
of people started referring to themselves as cyberpunk, because they
correctly noticed the seeds of the fictional "techno-system" in
Western society today, and because they identified with the
marginalized characters in cyberpunk stories. Within the last few
years, the mass media has caught on to this, spontaneously dubbing
certain people and groups "cyberpunk". Specific subgroups which are
identified with cyberpunk are:
Hackers, Crackers, and Phreaks: "Hackers" are the "wizards" of the
computer community; people with a deep understanding of how their
computers work, and can do things with them that seem
"magical". "Crackers" are the real-world analogues of the "console
cowboys" of cyberpunk fiction; they break in to other people's
computer systems, without their permission, for illicit gain or simply
for the pleasure of exercising their skill. "Phreaks" are those who do
a similar thing with the telephone system, coming up with ways to
circumvent phone companies' calling charges and doing clever things
with the phone network. All three groups are using emerging computer
and telecommunications technology to satisfy their individualist
goals.
Cypherpunks: These people think a good way to bollix "The System" is
through cryptography and cryptosystems. They believe widespread use of
extremely hard-to-break coding schemes will create "regions of privacy"
that "The System" cannot invade.
Ravers: These are the folks who use synthesized and sampled music,
computer-generated psychedelic ("cyberdelic") art, and designer drugs
to create massive all-night dance parties and love-fests in empty
warehouses.
However, one person's "cyberpunk" is another's everyday obnoxious
teenager with some technical skill thrown in, or just someone looking
for the latest trend to identify with. This has led many people
to look at self-designated "cyberpunks" in a negative light. Also,
there are those who claim that "cyberpunk" is undefinable (which
in some sense it is, being concerned with outsiders and rebels), and
resent the mass media's use of the label, seeing it as a cynical
marketing ploy.
---
3. What is cyberspace?
How does it relate to today's "net" and "virtual reality"?
To my knowledge, the term "cyberspace" was first used by William
Gibson in his story "Burning Chrome". That work first describes users
using devices called "cyberdecks" to override their normal sensory
organs, presenting them with a full-sensory interface to the world
computer network; when doing so, said users are "in cyberspace". (The
concept had appeared prior to Gibson, most notably in Vernor Vinge's
story "True Names".) "Cyberspace" is thus the metaphorical "place"
where one "is" when accessing the world computer net.
Even though Gibson's vision of how cyberspace operates is in some
senses absurd, it has stimulated many in the computing community. The
word "cyberspace" is beginning to filter into common use, referring to
the emergent world-wide computer network (especially the
Internet). Also, some researchers in the "virtual reality" area of
computer science are trying to implement something like Gibson's
information space. However, "cyberspace" is also used to refer to any
computer-generated VR environment, even if its purpose is not
"accessing the net".
---
4. Cyberpunk books
The following is intended to be a short list of the best in-print
cyberpunk works. Note that quite a few works written before 1980 have
been retroactively labelled "cyberpunk", because of stylistic
similarities (like Pynchon's _Gravity's Rainbow_), or similar themes
(Brunner's _The Shockwave Rider_, Delany's _Nova_).
William Gibson's _Neuromancer_, about a cracker operating in
cyberspace, a cybernetically-enhanced bodyguard/mercenary, and a pair
of mysterious AIs, got the ball rolling as far as cyberpunk is
concerned. It won the Hugo, Nebula, P. K. Dick, and Ditmar awards,
something no other SF work has done. Gibson wrote two sequels in the
same setting, _Count Zero_ and _Mona Lisa Overdrive_.
Gibson also has a collection of short stories, _Burning Chrome_, which
contains three stories in _Neuromancer_'s setting, as well as several
others, such as the excellent "The Winter Market" and "Dogfight".
Gibson recently published _Virtual Light_, set nearer in the future
and with somewhat more toned-down technology, but dealing with the
same thematic concerns as other cyberpunk works.
Bruce Sterling's _Crystal Express_ contains his "Shaper/Mechanist"
short stories about the future of humanity and "post-humanity", as
well as "Green Days in Brunei", a story sharing the global setting of
his _Islands in the Net_. Both are near-future extrapolations in
worlds very similar to our own. (_Schismatrix_, a novel-length story
in the "Shaper/Mechanist" future, is out of print.)
Sterling edited _Mirrorshades: A Cyberpunk Anthology_, which contains
stories by many authors; some are questionably cyberpunk, but it has
some real gems ("Mozart in Mirrorshades" being one).
Gibson and Sterling collaboratively wrote _The Difference Engine_, a
novel called "steampunk" by some; it deals with many cyberpunk themes
by using an alternate 19th-century Britain where Babbage's mechanical
computer technology has been fully developed.
_Snow Crash_, by Neal Stephenson, carries cyberpunk to a humorous
extreme; what else can one say about a work where the Mafia delivers
pizza and the main character's name is "Hiro Protagonist"?
Larry McCaffrey editied an anthology, _Storming the Reality Studio_,
which has snippets of many cyberpunk works, as well as critical
articles about cyberpunk, and a fairly good bibliography.
Some other good cyberpunk works include:
Walter Jon Williams, _Hardwired_: a smuggler who pilots a hovertank
decides to take on the Orbital Corporations that control his world.
Walter Jon Williams, _Voice of the Whirlwind_: a corporate soldier's
clone tries to discover what happened to his "original copy".
Greg Bear, _Blood Music_: a genetic engineer "uplifts" some of his own
blood cells to human-level intelligence, with radical consequences.
Pat Cadigan, _Synners_: hackers and other misfits pursue a deadly new
"virus" when direct brain interfaces first appear in near-future LA.
(Some good out-of-print works to look for are Sterling's _Schismatrix_,
Pat Cadigan's _Mindplayers, and Michael Swanwick's _Vacuum Flowers_.)

cyber.culture.7supers,
Grrrrrrr!
Govori vam lenjiras!
Lenjirasi su opake zveri koje se bave prozdiranjem svega sto ima i tracak
humanizma u sebi.
Za dorucak smazu nekog vernika.
Za rucak sliste etnologa.
Za veceru najvise vole da do kostiju izgrickaju filologa ili filozofa.
Lenjirasi su u osnovnoj skoli imali 5 iz pravopisa, a 1 iz slobodnih
sastava.
Lenjirasi ne mogu da podnesu otvaranje teme koja predstavlja sintezu
svete reci "kibernetika" i jereticke reci "kultura".
Lenjirasi, uopste, ne znaju za kulturu. Podsticu razvoj folklora, jer
je najjestiviji.
Njima je cilj da sve sto podseca na kulturu prozderu.
Jedino ne jedu lenjire, trouglove i sestare, jer bi ostali bez sredstava
za rad.
Ukratko, cilj im je da prozderu ovu novootvorenu temu, a sto ne mogu da
svare - to ce izbockati sestarima i vrhovima lenjira.
Humanisti ovo moraju spreciti!
Kako se odbraniti od lenjirasa?
1) Objasniti im da nista ne znaju.
2) Objasniti im da su sovinisti.
3) Objasniti im da su zadojeni komunistickom ideologijom.
4) Objasniti im da vode izopacen seksualni zivot.
Pod dejstvom ovih magijski sugestivnih kletvi, lenjirasi ce se na mestu
paralizovati. Kad se povrate, pobeci ce glavom bez obzira kao da ih nikada
nije ni bilo i vise nikada se nece usuditi da diraju u svete teme

6. Cyberpunk in visual media (movies and TV)
What about movies based on Gibson's stories?
Gibson's _Alien 3_ script?
TV gave us the late, lamented _Max Headroom_, which featured oodles of
cyberpunk concepts. The Bravo cable network is rerunning the
few episodes that were made. TV also gave us the somewhat bloated
_Wild Palms_, with a "cyberspace", evil corporations, and a cameo by
William Gibson.
Recently, TV-movies based on William Shatner's "Tek" novels have been
released. While possessing some tranditionally cyberpunk elements and
extended "cyberspace runs", they tend to boil down to good guys
vs. bad guys cop stories. So far, _TekWar_, _TekLords_, and _TekLab_
have been made. (_TekLords_ features a central plot element that those
who have read _Snow Crash_ will recognize.)
_Blade Runner_ is considered the archetypical cyberpunk movie. (Gibson
has said that the visuals in _Blade Runner_ match his vision of the
urban future in _Neuromancer_.) Few other movies have matched it; some
that are considered cyberpunk or marginally so are _Alien_ and its
sequels, _Freejack_, _The Lawnmower Man_, _Until the End of the
World_, the "Terminator" movies, _Total Recall_, the somewhat goofy
_Circuitry Man_, and _Brainstorm_.
There is an hourlong documentary called "Cyberpunk" available on video
from Mystic Fire Video. It features some interview-style conversation
with Gibson, is generally low-budget, and the consensus opinion on the
net is that it isn't really worth anyone's time. Gibson is apparently
embarrassed by it.
Regarding films based on Gibson stories: At one point a fly-by-night
operation called "Cabana Boys Productions" had the rights to
_Neuromancer_; this is why the front of the _Neuromancer_ computer
game's box claims it is "soon to be a motion picture from Cabana
Boys". The rights have since reverted to Gibson, who is sitting on
them at the moment.
A film version of Gibson's short story "Johnny Mnemonic" is being
produced at this time, scheduled for release in early 1995; Gibson
wrote the screenplay, and is a close consultant to the director,
Robert Longo. Keanu Reeves has the title role, Dolph Lundgren and
Takeshi Kitano are his enemies, and Dina Meyer is playing the
"Molly-equivalent" character (since the character of Molly cannot
appear due to her possible use in a _Neuromancer_ production). Ice-T
and Henry Rollins also have roles. There are rumors that "New Rose
Hotel" will soon be made into a film, and Gibson recently claimed that
a short (15 minute) film was made in Britain based on his short story
"The Gernsback Continuum".
William Gibson wrote one of the many scripts for _Alien 3_. According
to him, only one detail from his script made its way to the actual
film: the bar codes visible on the backs of the prisoners' shaved
heads. A synopsis of Gibson's script, including instructions on how
to get the whole thing, can be found in part 3 of the _Alien_ Movies
FAQ list, available as "rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/news.answers/movies/
alien-faq/part3".
---
7. _Blade Runner_
There is a _Blade Runner_ FAQ which is available via anonymous FTP as
"rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/usenet/news.answers/movies/bladerunner-faq". It
answers many of the more common questions. Here are short answers to
the most common.
a. There are several alternate versions. The original theatrical
release in the US omitted the Batty-Tyrell eye-gouging sequence and a
few other bits; these were added back in Europe and the video
release. In 1992, a "director's cut" was released, now available on
video, which omits the Deckard voiceover and the "happy" ending, and
reinserts the "unicorn scene". Before that, however, a different
cut was shown at two theaters, one in LA, the other in San Francisco,
for a brief period; this has a different title sequence and
soundtrack, some different dialogue, no voiceover and no happy ending,
but no unicorn sequence. (In my opinion, it was the best version.)
b. The 5/6 replicants problem: This is widely accepted as an editing
glitch which slipped through to the release. The film originally
featured a fifth "live" replicant, "Mary", who was later deleted. In
the limited-release cut, the line "one got fried ..." is changed to
"two got fried ...". Bryant does not include Rachel in the original
six escaped replicants. However ...
c. Internal clues, such as lack of emotion, the photographs, and the
reflective eyes, do suggest that Deckard is a replicant. However, this
is not _explicitly_ stated in any cut. The "unicorn scene" gives this
theory more weight.
---
8. Cyberpunk music. What about Billy Idol's album?
There is a bit of confusion as to what "cyberpunk music" really is. Is
it "music that deals with cyberpunk themes", or "music that people in
a cyberpunk future would listen to"?
Those who claim there _is_ cyberpunk music usually say the fast,
synthesized, and sample-oriented forms such as techno, rave, and
industrial music are "cyberpunk".
In late 1993 Billy Idol released an album called "Cyberpunk", which
garnered some media attention. The album seems to have been a
commercial and critical flop, but based on his statements (two of
them) on the net, Billy seems sincere about learning about the
"cyberpunk scene". However, scorn and charges of commercialization
have been heaped upon him in this and other forums.

$0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0 CHEAP TRUTH ONE $0$0$0$0$0$0$0$0
EDITORIAL: Hi. You want to know the truth. We want to tell it to you.
Let's try to keep the ECONOMICS between us to a minimum, okay? Right, let's
do it.
** QUEST FOR DECAY **
As American SF lies in a reptilian torpor, its small, squishy cousin,
Fantasy, creeps gecko-like across the bookstands. Dreaming of dragon-hood,
Fantasy has puffed itself up with air like a Mojave chuckwalla. SF's
collapse had formed a vacuum that forces Fantasy into a painful and explosive
bloat.
Short stories, crippled with the bends, expand into whole hideous
trilogies as hollow as nickel gumballs. Even poor Stephen Donaldson, who
struggles to atone for his literary crimes with wet hippy sincerity, has been
forced to re-xerox his Tolkien pastiches and doubly insult the public. As
Robert E. Howard spins in his grave, the Chryslers of publishing attach
rotors to his head and feet and use him to power the presses.
But the editors have eaten sour grapes and the writers' teeth are on
edge. Fantasy, for too long the vapid playground of McCaffreyite
unicorn-cuddlers and insect-eating SCA freaks, has some new and dangerous
borderlands. Suddenly, perhaps out of sheer frustration, fantasy has
movement and color again. It is the squirming movement of corruption and the
bright sheen of decay.
** Some Examples **
NIFFT THE LEAN by Michael Shea. DAW, $2.95. Jack Vance's acolyte,
author of the apprentice work QUEST FOR SIMBILIS, Shea has suddenly and
fearsomely come into his own. This astonishing work shows a furious
imaginative concentration that is impressive and even appalling. The
legitimate heir of Vance, Leiber, and Clark Ashton Smith, Shea rips aside the
polite, smirking ironies of these polished writers and shows us a crawling,
boiling vision of the demonic. He is a Fender Stratocaster to Vance's
Stradivarius.
For those familiar with Vance's work, the effect is odd and
disquieting, like seeing a favorite uncle stumble in, blasted on bad acid and
mumbling cosmis obscenities. There are supernatural horrors here that make
Cthulhu and his boys look as tame as pinstriped bankers. Hell itself, its
denizens and environs, are captured with a revolting nicety of detail and
expression that makes you wonder for the author's sanity.
Shea is doing for the outworn tradition of heroic fantasy what
Swinburne did for the tradition of romantic poetry: namely, piling it up in
a heap and setting it on fire. And, like Swinburne, he does it with so much
insight that he renders the tradition obsolete. Heroic fantasy is already
moribund; Shea's book is, strictly speaking, a work of decadence, even of
necromancy. This is an important, even crucial book, with the lurid
brilliance and craftsmanlike discipline of a Bosch canvas. Not to be missed.
RED AS BLOOD by Tanith Lee. DAW, $2.50. The morbid smirk of the
stereotyped fantasy damsel on the Michael Whelan cover of this book
personifies fantasy's new decadence. Lee's talent has always threatened to
overwhelm the narrow limits of her innumerable cape-and-thick-ankles
bodice-busters, and this time she has the bit between her teeth and takes off
for parts unknown.
She has returned to fantasy's roots -- the 4/4 beat of Grimm's fairy
tales -- and ripped it up in a way that Ramones fans might find eerily
familiar. This is a very punk book -- all red and black -- and it has some
of the end-of-the-world energy of a '77 Pistols gig. These stories are
TWISTED -- tales of bloodlust, sexual frustration, schoolgirl nastiness,
world-devouring ennui, and a detailed obsession with Satanism that truly
makes one wonder.
Casual readers may find some of these stories dense and opaque.
Lee's prose has a cryptic, involuted quality, which creates the impression
that she is hinting at matters too blasphemous to speak of openly. It's a
peculiar style, alternately annoying and frightening.
Some of this apparent awkwardness is the result of a refusal to
compromise. It is the sign of an artist struggling to explian her visions in
what amounts to a private dialect. Even the failures are a left-handed
tribute to her integrity. She is uniquely gifted.
If you are the kind of fan who wants to have a dragon for a friend
and loves small furry animals, stay away from this book, because you might
die from it.
LYONESSE by Jack Vance. Berkley, $6.95. This latest effort has all
the qualities Vance devotees cherish: vivid clarity in description, clever,
colorful protagonists, fully realized societies complete with Vance's
trademark footnotes, and headlong, exciting plotting that has footloose
freedom without becoming slipshod.
It's true that Vance has only one voice: a carefully crafted,
mock-archaic one. Vance characters, from wizards to galactic effectuators,
always speak with the same sense of antiquated, polite calculation. In
LYONESSE, a pair of housecats are given the power of speech, and when they
immediately pipe up with a uniquely Vancian courteous peevishness the
effective is irresistably (and deliberately) hilarious. It's a voice that
has served Vance well, and has even been borrowed wholesale by Michael Shea
without becoming tiresome.
Vance's works have always had a veiled darker side; they are replete
with wine-sipping perverts whose sidelong glances and polite insinuations
hint at unspeakable vices. Vance is a writer of rare perception; although he
created many of the parameters of modern fantasy, he is clearly aware of
their exhaustion. His answer, like Shea's, is to turn up the amps.
Thus we have a female character whose suffering innocence almost
reminds one of deSade's Justine. There is a definite, quiet cruelty in this
book that is presented with an alarming sense of relish. Characters are
blinded, tortured, branded, buggered, thrown into wells and left to die.
Women and children especially are singled out for torment; one long section
is a Tanith Lee-esque black fairy tale, and its peculiar viciousness is
cynically funny. At last Vance even turns on the reader, for the book's
ending is a cruel joke. It hints at books to follow, but since Vance's
languorous attitude toward sequels is legendary, his audience is probably
doomed to a long session on the tenterhooks.
THE FLOATING GODS by M. John Harrison. Timescape, $2.50. This book
is called IN VIRICONIUM in Britain, but was stupidly retitled for American
release, presumably because Timescape believes we are boneheads. It's the
third book in a sword-and-sorcery trilogy that includes THE PASTEL CITY and A
STORM OF WINGS.
It's clear that a different but allied form of decadence has struck
Across the Water. Its trademark is not perversion, but exhaustion. PASTEL
CITY rejoiced in such sprightly characters as Tomb, "the nastiest dwarf that
ever hacked the hands off a priest," whose rotten malevolence was a welcome
relief from Harrison's sometimes stifling meditations on spiritual decline.
FLOATING GODS has no such characters. It is set in a city smothered
under a nebulous Plague Zone. Possibly Harrison has spent too much time in
Brixton. Despair seems to have been printed across his eyeballs in letters
of fire. THE FLOATING GODS is a relentless exercise in total, stifling
futility; it is one long, gray, debilitating dream.
Harrison's extraordinary talent merely crams the reader's head more
firmly into the bucket. It is impossible to read this book without
considering suicide. It is painful to read; painful even to think about.
Let's hope to God something happens soon to cheer him up.

Moraćete da čitate, pa neka svako "definiše" za sebe. Moja namera je
da pokrenem, a ne da "definišem" (ako se to očekuje, nisam taj.)
Da se dogovorimo: slaćemo ovde sve što se tiče raznih vidova odnosa
između kompjuterske tehnologije i kulture (u širokom smislu): od SF-a
tog tipa i cyber-punka, preko hakerskih subkultura, pa sve do
(danas) neobičnijih razmišljanja o kompjuterima. Neću pogrešiti kad
kažem da najveći deo ovdašnjih komp. ovisnika/korisnika nema na
umu kulturni aspekt tehnologije. Verovatno tako treba da bude,
tehničari ne moraju misliti na konsekvence svoje tehnologije. Mđt,
nisu svi tehničari, niti je tehnologija bez posledica po razne druge
oblasti. Cyber.culture ima za predmet onu oblast koja nije pan-
tehnološka. O tom predmetu ima već more literature.
Pišite ovde šta vam je volja, naravno. Na kraju meseca bi bilo
izbrisano sve što ne pripada ovoj temi, pa otuda možete slobodno dati
resign, a onda jednom mesečno pokupiti temu očišćenu svih "šumova" (ko
hoće i "šumove", neka onda skuplja poruke svkodnevno). Mislim da je to
solidna nagodba, štedi i živce i vreme (svima, osim meni i Balindi).
Naglašavam ovo ponovo, jer će materijal dovlačen s raznih strana biti
duži (i do 15 Kb po jednoj poruci), i neće - sem u nekim slučajevima -
biti pakovan kao fajl uz poruku. Dakle, kome je to mnogo - neka sačeka
kraj meseca; koga, pak, ne zanima, ok je. Što bi nas sve zanimale iste
stvari, uostalom!
Zato, neka niko ne kuka na dužinu poruka, kuknjava će biti naprosto
ignorisana, jer su svakom pod dirkama i resign i ignore.
Može li tako? :)

" -> Eh da, šta je daemon?
"
" Molim Novicu da postuje daemon entry iz JAR u cyber.culture :).
Glad to.:)) Elem:
-----
"The on-line hacker Jargon File, version 3.0.0, 27 JUL 1993".
<...>
:daemon: /day'mn/ or /dee'mn/ <from the mythological meaning,
later rationalized as the acronym 'Disk And Execution MONitor'> n.
A program that is not invoked explicitly, but lies dormant waiting
for some condition(s) to occur. The idea is that the perpetrator
of the condition need not be aware that a daemon is lurking (though
often a program will commit an action only because it knows that it
will implicitly invoke a daemon). For example, under <<ITS>>
writing a file on the <LPT> spooler's directory would invoke the
spooling daemon, which would then print the file. The advantage is
that programs wanting (in this example) files printed need neither
compete for access to nor understand any idiosyncrasies of the
<LPT>. They simply enter their implicit requests and let the
daemon decide what to do with them. Daemons are usually spawned
automatically by the system, and may either live forever or be
regenerated at intervals.
Daemon and <demon> are often used interchangeably, but seem to
have distinct connotations. The term 'daemon' was introduced to
computing by <CTSS> people (who pronounced it /dee'mon/) and
used it to refer to what ITS called a <dragon>. Although the
meaning and the pronunciation have drifted, we think this glossary
reflects current (1993) usage.

Kukavičje jaje nisam čitao, ali po onome što znam pretpostavljam da je to
uglavnom krimi priča. Uostalom, sama činjenica da je zasnovano na stvarnom
događaju govori da to nije baš čisto (ako je ikako!) cyber žanr. S druge
strane, Neuromanser je deep SF, sa nesvakidašnjim idejama. Nimalo
uobičajena stvar i baš treba prići tome kako treba.
Ima li neko električni oblik Neuromansera? Postoji li to uopšte?

da je računar isključivo alatka ili pomagalo u radu. E, kada se svi lepo

Znači spoj kibernetike (ili, još bolje, a unekoliko i tačnije:
kibernautike) i kulture. Obuhvata: cyberpunk (u više njegovih
značenja), virtual reality, hakerske subkulture, hipertekst,
multimedije, umetnost nastalu na kompjuteru (nalik na tvoj crtani
prilog), razmišljanja o tome šta je kompjuter, itd. - sve ono što bi
se odnosilo na civilizacijski smisao ovog tipa tehnologije.

se neko od ovih sa sezama seti da pravi pitanja oko autorskih
prava.
cyber.culture.41novim,
" kako bi izgledalo u recimo, conf. "high-tech low-life"...
To je opis za alt.cyberpunk. Autor opisa iz Future Culture verovatno
podrazumeva da to svi - koji čitaju Future Culture, a cyberpunk
magazine - znaju, pa navodi lakonsku "definiciju". Đavo bi ga znao na
šta je tačno mislio, ali meni "high-tech low-life" neodoljivo liči na
kratku šifru za nas, ovde, AD 199*. Sediš i čitaš Dr.Grbinu
"oko.sveta", umesto da si zaista on-the-road. E-Keruak.
Optuži me za devet x patetika, ali mi ideja da se što pre nekako
kačimo na Internet izgleda upravo kao otvaranje puta u svet, makar i
virtualnog; lično sam iz nešto starije generacije nego većina mladih
ljudi na Sezamu, pa sam još kao student mogao da putujem po Jevropi
dosta; ali današnji apsolvent, recimo, teško da će da moći da se
'ladno otisne do Londona, Pariza ili Rima (što smo mi nekad mogli bez
previše problema, tj. para). Neka onda barem ljudi ovaj geto u šta nam
se pretvorila zemlja razbijaju elektronskim putovanjem...
Zato doživljavam Juku kao svoju političku stranku, pre nego bilo koju
drugu ese-pe-oese-de-be-lo-pa-tanko...
Ps: Možemo ovde slati i stvari koje se tiču i drogica ili loših
hakera; lično nemam ništa protiv poruka o tome, sve dok su
inteligentne. Valjda se podrazumeva da prebacivanje nekog Internet
materijala u ovu temu ne predstavlja obavezno i stav onoga ko to
prebacuje. - Takođe, nikako mi se ne definiše šta je to
"cyber.culture" unapred; svako ima o tome svoju predstavu, pa ćemo
njihovih kontrastriranjem doći do nečeg zajedničkog... Idućih dana će
ići još malo "crtanja opšteg okvira" ove teme, tj. izvodi iz
pominjanog Future Culture...
" al' se oni dobro zezaju...

Agrippa: A Book of the Dead - A collaboration between author ŠWilliam
GibsonĆ, publisher Kevin Begos Jr, and artist Dennis Ashbaugh.
This art-work contains engravings by Ashbaugh which appear or
disappear in light and an on-disk semi-autobiographical poem by
ŠWilliam GibsonĆ which is unreadable after having been read once.
Agrippa is notable because in many respects it blurs the lines
about what art is, and adds fuel to the fire on issues of property
rights and intellectual property. <v. CIV.7. - 6.62>
BBSes - electronic Bulletin Board Systems. Begun in the late 70's, a
form of Švirtual communityĆ existing in ŠcyberspaceĆ where
participants (usually using aliases) may send and receive
public and private messages to each other on any topic
imaginable, transfer software (copyrighted and/or public
domain), play on-line games, etc. There is the "over-ground"
BBS world where aliases are less common and illegal activities
are avoided in discussion, and the Ššcomputerć undergroundĆ
where illegal activities and discussions are very common,
members use aliases, and illegal information and/or software
is exchanged.
Boxing - A variety of electronic devices used to aid in ŠphreakingĆ.
The original was the blue box, used from the mid 60's to the
mid 80's, which allowed long distance phone calls to be made
for free. A variety of other similar instruments
accomplishing different tasks have been developed, some
purely comical, some quite practical.
CC fraud - Credit Card or Calling Card fraud. common in the
Šcomputer undergroundĆ community.
Chaos Theory - science revolving around simplistic equations
involving a large number of variables. Gave rise to
ŠfractalsĆ, a form of ŠcyberdelicĆ art. For further info on
the subject, James Gleick's "Chaos: Making a New Science" is
suggested.
Computer Underground - "A group organized in secrecy, hidden behind
aliases, to promote the free exchange of information
regarding anything and everything including, but not limited
to: computers, telephones, radios, chemicals, and ideas."
(thanx to The Butler for this definition)
The mainstay of communication for the computer underground is
ŠcyberspaceĆ, more specifically ŠBBSesĆ. The computer
underground is comprised of ŠhackersĆ, ŠphreakersĆ,
ŠpiratersĆ, anarchists, and other ŠcyberpunksĆ.
CP - see ŠcyberpunkĆ.
Cryonics - The fringe science of freezing a person's head or whole
body after death, in the hopes that in the future they may be
revived and brought back to life.
Cyber- - A prefix taken from ŠcyberneticsĆ generally used in popular
culture to mean anything that is technologically oriented.
Cyberdeck - Term originated by ŠWilliam GibsonĆ to refer to a
computer used by Šdeck cowboysĆ that can connect to the
ŠmatrixĆ.
Cyberdelic - "Cyber-art". Examples include ŠfractalsĆ,
computer-generated pictures and/or music, Švirtual worldsĆ,
etc.
Cybernetics - The study of communication systems in living organisms
and machines, the mathematical analysis of the flow of
information.
Cyberpunk - Begun as a literary movement in the 80's, an off-shoot of
normal science fiction. Unique in that it generally occurs
in the present or not so distant future, the characters are
often considered "punks" and technology, (the cyber aspect), is
prominent. "Neuromancer" by ŠWilliam GibsonĆ, published in
1984, is considered by most to be the "bible" of cyberpunk.
Another prominent author is ŠBruce SterlingĆ, editor of
another worthy cyberpunk collection, "Mirrorshades".
Other examples of cyberpunk include Max Headroom (tv
show) and Blade Runner (movie). Cyberpunk is
special in that it has evolved from a purely literary
movement to a realistic subculture. Many "techno-punks"
(ie: ŠhackersĆ) are considered cyberpunks. Other
contributing factors to the cyberpunk subculture
include: virtual reality, hallucinogenic and ŠnootropicĆ
drugs, and industrial and punk music. For an in-depth,
detailed look at cyberpunk fiction and cyberpunk culture,
"Storming the Reality Studio", ed. by Larry McCaffery is
suggested.
Cyberspace - "The electronic frontier." A completely virtual
environment: the sum total of all ŠBBSesĆ, computer networks,
and other Švirtual communitiesĆ. Unique in that it is
constantly being changed, exists only virtually, can be
practically infinite in "size", communication occurs
instantaneously world-wide - physical location is completely
irrelevant most of the time.
Deck Cowboys - Futuristic version of a computer ŠhackerĆ or a
modern-day ŠcyberpunkĆ.
Electronic Frontier Foundation - (EFF). Organization founded by
Mitch Kapor (of Lotus fame) and John Perry Barlow (writer and
Grateful Dead songwriter) to establish laws for ŠcyberspaceĆ
and apply the constitution to Švirtual communitiesĆ.
Fractals - Images created using Šchaos theoryĆ. A mish-mash of
colors presented in a pattern that repeats itself many times
over. A popular type of fractal image is one created using
the "Mandlebrot set". Fractals are considered ŠcyberdelicĆ
art.
Gibson, William - Considered by most to be the "father" of
ŠcyberpunkĆ, along with ŠBruce SterlingĆ. His works include
the infamous "Neuromancer", "Count Zero", "Mona Lisa
Overdrive" (these 3 works are known as the ŠsprawlĆ series),
"The Difference Engine" with which he was co-author with ŠBruce
SterlingĆ, and "Burning Chrome" a collection of short
stories. Hist latest work is a poem in "ŠAgrippa: A Book of the
DeadĆ". Gibson says he will no longer be writing the "classic"
ŠcyberpunkĆ novels he is famous for.
Hacker - 60's (1st) generation (orig. MIT): one who tinkers with
software, electronics, computer hardware, etc. 80's (2nd)
ŠWarGamesĆ generation: one who enters computer systems
without permission with either malicious or non-malicious
intent, to gain, alter, or destroy information (labelled as
ŠcrackersĆ by the 60's generation). 90's (3rd) generation:
often called ŠcyberpunksĆ, mostly non-malicious ŠcrackersĆ
interested in information for the sake of information, and
not hacking for the sake of the hack - sometimes calling
themselves "information liberators", they have re-adopted
more of the original hacker ethic of the 60's which states
mainly "all information should be free", "access to computers
should be unlimited and total" and "promote
decentralization". This new, 3rd generation is commonly
associated with the computer underground, despite its mostly
non-malicious intent.
Industrial - A subculture revolving around industrial music, a
collection of mostly electronically created sounds and
samples that results in a fierce explosion of sound labelled
by many as "the new punk". This subculture is generally
anti-political, anti-aesthetic in nature.
Internet - A large and very popular world-wide computer network
begun by the Defense Department in the 60's that connects
educational institutions, corporations, organizations, and
military and government installations around the globe.
Some organizations exist that offer access to the Internet to
the general public for an hourly/monthly/yearly fee. See the
"BBSes" section of this article for more info, particularly
those BBSes listed with "public access unix" next to them.
Suggested are places like the ŠWELLĆ, ŠMindVoxĆ, Nyx (which is
free of cost), NetCom, etc. Many Internet users partake in
reading and contributing to ŠUsenetĆ, playing ŠMUDĆs, FTPing
text files and programs free of charge at the various FTP
sites, and 'telnet'ing to other Internet sites. Because of
its accessibility at a relatively low cost, size (the largest
computer network in the world), connectivity, and infinite
amounts of information, many network users prefer the Internet
to such services as CompuServe (often called Compu$erve on
the Internet) or Prodigy (which is more restricting in its
content). The Internet has something to offer for everyone.
Other portions of this file such as the suggested newsgroups
list, list of FTP sites, and list of 'telnet'able services and
sites, should be very helpful to the new Internet user. Once
you gain access to the Internet, it is suggested that you read
the 'news.announce.newusers' and 'news.newusers.questions'
and 'news.answers' newsgroups on ŠUsenetĆ. You might also want
to read the file 'NixPub: Listing of Public Access Unix sites'
to find an Internet dial-up (BBS/Service) in your area.

Legion of Doom - (LoD). A legendary group of ŠhackersĆ from the
Šcomputer undergroundĆ. When they disbanded, some members
went on to form a computer security firm (ComSec), Loyd
Blankenship wrote GURPS Cyberpunk for ŠSteve Jackson GamesĆ
and some ended up in jail from ŠOperation SundevilĆ.
Matrix - Term coined by William Gibson which refers to the consensual
hallucination of ŠcyberspaceĆ.
MindVox - A Švirtual communityĆ in ŠcyberspaceĆ, also a ŠBBSĆ
connected to the ŠInternetĆ. A nexus of the Šcomputer
undergroundĆ and ŠcyberpunkĆ and Švirtual realityĆ begun by
Phantom Access Technologies, former members of the ŠLegion of
DoomĆ. See also the ŠWELLĆ
Mirrorshades - A very important collection of ŠcyberpunkĆ fiction by
various authors, most of whom are labelled as the Šmirrorshades
groupĆ. This book is edited by ŠBruce SterlingĆ and should be
available in most bookstores.
Mirrorshades Group - Original collection of ŠcpĆ authors which
includes William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, Tom Maddox, Lewis
Shiner, John Shirley, SF Eye magazine editor Steve Brown,
Rudy Rucker, Pat Cadigan, and others.
Mondo 2000 - Very popular ŠcyberpunkĆ and Šnew edgeĆ magazine.
Subscription information is available elsewhere in this file.
MUD - Multi-User Domain, Multi-User Dungeon, or Multi-User Dimension.
MUDs are multi-user role-playing-games of sorts that exist on
the ŠInternetĆ for entertainment purposes. MUDs are essentially
text-based Švirtual worldsĆ which players (participants) may
explore, change, or add on to. In some cases, the MUD is not
actually a "game" with scores, player attributes, levels, etc.,
but some MUDs are set up this way. MUDs tend to be based around
different science fiction genres such as fantasy, space, or even
ŠcyberpunkĆ. Some MUD environments have no defining
characteristics.
Nanotechnology - the science of "micro-machines". Small gears or
other machines seen only by a microscope, that can be used in
areas such as medicine and health, art, and other
technologies.
Net - A computer network. Often used to mean the ŠInternetĆ when referred
to as "the net"
Netrunner - see ŠhackerĆ.
New Edge - Fringe culture and fringe science, mostly techno-oriented,
and very popular in Southern California. ŠMondo 2000Ć is a
magazine devoted to the new edge.
Nootropics - A new fringe science revolving around drugs used to
increase intelligence, aid in memory, enhance brain activity,
etc. Touted as a fad by some, others claim that use of
nootropics actually work. See also ŠSmartDrinksĆ.
Operation Sundevil - Secret Service operation begun in 1990 intended
to destroy the Šcomputer undergroundĆ by confiscating ŠBBSesĆ
and detaining ŠhackersĆ.
Phrack - An important magazine existing only in ŠcyberspaceĆ, of
interest to the Šcomputer undergroundĆ. It's founder, Craig
Neidorf, now works for the ŠElectronic Frontier FoundationĆ.
Phreaker - ŠHackingĆ the phone system. Usually meaning to get phone
calls for free, whether by ŠboxingĆ or Šcc fraudĆ.
Post-modern - Literary, artistic, cultural, and philosophical
movement revolving around the post-industrial world in which

society.
Raves - A subculture revolving around all-night dance parties.
Typically, the parties are illegal and thus a complex
process is involved to find out where they are located. Rave
music is ŠtechnoĆ, the parties usually include 1 or more DJs.
Also present in many cases are "chill out rooms" which
feature more ambient music. Lasers, blaring music,
ŠcyberdelicĆ images, ŠSmartDrinksĆ and drugs (most often MDMA
šX, XTC, Ecstacy, Eć, LSD šacidć, ketamine, or nootropics)
are all large contributors to the rave eXperience. Raves are
generally illegal gatherings, held in empty warehouses, and
last until the next morning. Another large part of rave
culture is the flyers - used to find out where your next
party will be. Raves are meant to be very happy events,
everyone is happy and open and free, lay your inhibitions
aside for the night. Some have likened the rave eXperience
to "a weekly roving Štechno-Ćwoodstock for the 90's." Rave
fashion includes over-sized baggy t-shirts and pants, hooded
sweat-shirts, ski caps, and usually bright colors.
Slipstream - Term coined by ŠBruce SterlingĆ to denote cyberpunk
fiction, particularly pre-1984 fictional works that have been
influential to the Šmirrorshades groupĆ or that closely
resemble cyberpunk, but are usually outside of the sf genre.
An example would be William S. Burroughs.
SmartDrugs - ŠnootropicsĆ
SmartDrinks - Similar to SmartDrugs, or ŠnootropicsĆ, the intent of
these substances, loaded with vitamins, minerals, amino
acids, and other healthy substances, is to aid in brain
functioning. Smart Drinks are most often consumed at
ŠravesĆ, thus, the purpose of some smart drinks is to
"energize" the drinker, not to make them smarter.
Sprawl - Word used by ŠWilliam GibsonĆ to mean large mega-cities, and
places where different cities collide. Southern California
and New York City might be early examples of the sprawl. This
word is used often in modern times as "urban sprawl".
Steve Jackson Games - RPG manufacturers which have played a key role
in the evolution of ŠcyberpunkĆ and the Šcomputer
undergroundĆ. Operators of the Illuminati BBS and makers of
GURPS Cyberpunk, an RPG guide written by Loyd Blankenship, a
member of the ŠLegion of DoomĆ.
Sterling, Bruce - considered by most to be the "co-founder" of
ŠcyberpunkĆ along with ŠWilliam GibsonĆ. He is the editor of
"Mirrorshades: A cyberpunk anthology", which is considered
the quintessential collection of ŠcpĆ works by the
Šmirrorshades groupĆ. His other works include
"Islands in the Net", "Schizmatrix", "The Involution
Ocean", "The Artificial Kid", "The Difference Engine" which
he co-authored with ŠGibsonĆ and "The Hacker Crackdown" a
non-fiction account of the Šcomputer undergroundĆ and
ŠOperation SundevilĆ, including the ŠElectronic Frontier
FoundationĆ, ŠPhrackĆ, the ŠLegion of DoomĆ, ŠSteve Jackson
GamesĆ, etc.
Techno- - prefix similar to cyber-, referring to anything which has
its roots in current or futuristic technology.
Techno - type of music made almost entirely with the help of
computers, revolving around a fast-paced drum beat (as high
as 160 BPM), sampling, and synthesizers.
Teledildonics - Virtual sex in a Švirtual environmentĆ. Term often used
by the Šnew edgeĆ community.
2600 - A popular hardcopy magazine devoted to the Šcomputer undergroundĆ.
Subscription information is obtained elsewhere in this file.
Usenet - A collection of "newsgroups" on the ŠInternetĆ, in which
ŠInternetĆ users may post or read messages on almost any subject
imaginable. The topics of discussion are divided up into the
individual newsgroups, which total about 2000 on average.
Usenet is divided into various large sections, including the
'alt'ernative newsgroups, the 'comp'uter newsgroups, the
'sci'ence newsgroups and the 'talk' newsgroups. A suggested list
of newsgroups is contained in this file. Some groups are
moderated, while most remain completely uncensored.
Virtual Community - any group or gathering that exists in
ŠcyberspaceĆ. This could be a ŠBBSĆ, a ŠhackingĆ group, a
ŠnetĆ, or even a ŠzaibatsuĆ.
Virtual Culture - the collection of Švirtual communitiesĆ, and the
cultural aspects unique to those communities.
Virtual Environment - a Švirtual worldĆ.
Virtual Reality - a consensual hallucination of a world existing only
in ŠcyberspaceĆ. Modern day virtual reality uses helmets,
gloves, and body suits to create such a world, which is first
created on a computer and connected to the vr devices.
The goal of virtual reality is to generate a completely
alternate reality. Research in vr includes networking
people, so spacial limitations are meaningless. The
possibilities of vr-generated environments are as limitless
as the imagination.
Virtual World - a world existing in ŠcyberspaceĆ created and used
with Švirtual realityĆ technologies.
WELL - The Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link. An important gridpoint in
the ŠmatrixĆ, a Švirtual communityĆ in ŠcyberspaceĆ, also a
ŠBBSĆ connected to the ŠInternetĆ. A group concerned mostly
with ŠcyberpunkĆ, Švirtual realityĆ, ŠnootropicsĆ, and other
aspects of the Šnew edgeĆ.
Zaibatsu - Japanese term used a lot by ŠWilliam GibsonĆ that means a
large mega-corporation, such as Sony for example.

Okej, tvoja volja. Ja sam te zamolio zato što sam mislio da je
jednostavnije da ti u svoj exec ubaciš jedno
..set code none
..conf rep cyber.culture
(blablabla...)
..set code yuscii
nego da se 5 - 10 - 50 ljudi koji prate ovu konferenciju i koji
nemaju YUSCII zezaju sa konvertovanjem, search & replace, i sličnim
stvarima... Tebi oduzima 20-30 sekundi, nama dva-tri minuta.
No, nema veze, tvoja volja, neću više da lenjirašim.

Bezrazložno agresivan, veliš? Ok, odustajem.

" Pa dobro, onda počni da kačiš te tekstove uz poruke.
Već rekoh da ću ovde slati duže Internet poruke, i da ko hoće da ih
čita neka ih čita, a ko neće niko mu neće ništa. Navike da se
prelistvaju a ne čitaju poruke - što bi bilo u redu da nije još gore
navike da se odgovara na poruke koje se samo jednim okom pregledaju -
nisu i moje navike, kao što nisu ni navike na Internetu, odakle i
potiču sve ove dugačke poruke koje bacam ovde. Tamo se, kad se ima
šta, piše onoliko koliko predmet traži.
Tema cyber.culture otvorena je pre 7 dana. Da će poruke biti takve
rečeno je dva puta pre otvaranja teme, a onda još tri puta za ovih
sedam dana (v. 14.18, 14.24, 14.41).
Zaista sam nemoćan. Ne znam svu istoriju Sezama napamet, ali mi se
čini da nijedna tema nije bila ovako neprijateljski dočekana.
Izvinjavam se posebno Balindi, koji je temu na moje traženje i
otvorio. Očito je sve to bilo prerano. Ko može, neka prihvati
moje izvinjenje što sam uznemirio cyber-pećinu svojim neuspelim
pokušajem da tu sa Interneta prenesem malo zanimanja za kulturu.
Kriv jesam. Ne nameravam da trošim vreme i energiju na preganjanje
oko svega ovog. Lenjir je pobedio, priznajem poraz. Poruku 14.7
očigledno sam shvatio olako.
Koga bude dalje zanimala cyber.culture neka mi se javi na mail,
uputiću ga sa kojeg BBS-a će moći da nastavi da skida te stvari.

Ma daj, za*ebi ŠLenjirašeĆ. Dobro je počelo.
Energiju oko preganjanja nemoj ni da trošiš nego šalji još
poruka sa Interneta.
Glupo je da jedna ovako dobra tema brzo zamre.
U svakom slučaju meni se tema dopala, a Š i Ć mi ne smetaju
uopšte. (dobro, možda malo)
Na pamet mi nebi palo da protestujem zbog toga i nevidim čemu rasprava.

Eto na kojem je nivou cyber culture u nas... :( žovek ima inicijativu, koju
svi prihvate kao cool, i (dobro, posle malo natezanja) otvori se tema, i onda
svima ODJEDNOM bude TOLIKI problem to banalno konvertovanje...
Svidja mi se ideja da se tekstovi NE kače kao datoteke, već da budu normalne
poruke. Problem je što novim koristi yuscii, pa kada se u tekstu na engleskom
jeziku pojavljuju "kuke i kvake" one se vama sa ne-yuscii rasporedima
konvertuju u taj vaš ne-yuscii raspored. Umesto da dižete galamu, lepo
pređite na yuscii... ;-) (šala, ne treba opet počinjati tu temu, pogotovu ne
ovde).
Možda je stvarno najjednostavniji predlog da novim doda u autoexec
:cybersend
..set code none
..co jo civ
..co wri cyber.culture
..set code yuscii
I time jednom svojom komandom radi ono što ionako radi sa dve, a svi budu
mirni i zadovoljni.
U kakvoj su vezi reči "tolerancija", "razumevanje", "nenasilno rešavanje
sukoba" sa cyber.culture? (a ovakvo rešavanje jeste nasilno, jer se ubija
jedinstvena tema ) :( Zašto u našoj (yu) cyber kulturi mora da preovlađuju
upravo najgore stvari iz "real" kulture? Dole cyber-dizelaši i slični!

Ako nisi u stanju da vidiš šaljiv ton u toj rečenici, onda, jebi ga...
Ako treba da ti crtam, i nacrtaću ti:
Moja molba da u porukama sa textovima koje šalješ setuješ code none,
NIJE uperena protivu tvoje ličnosti i slobode da izabereš najbolji kodni
raspored za sebe, nego je rukovođena žISTO ESTETSKIM razlozima.
Nije tačno da sam ti ja jedini to sugerisao, ali ako si toliko sujetan
da tako teško doživljavaš kritike, onda stvarno..:((
žemu potezanje raznih uvreda tipa "lenjiraši..."..? žemu tolika oholost
i prepotencija..? Aman čoveče, pa čim sam ti napisao da "sabotiraš sam

prema onima koji ti upućuju bilo kakvu kritiku, pa makar i kroz šalu,
nije u redu...
Šta sad..? Sad ćeš kao da se povučeš i kao nećeš više da šalješ priloge
jer te je neko, kao, uvredio... Ajde ne brukaj se više, i šalji te
priloge, makar i sa ŠĆ zagradama... Nemaš pravo da odustaneš, jer si

Izvini, ali ovo je zaista patetično. Pa, ljudi su samo
predložili da setuješ ascii. Nećeš, ok! Ali, nemoj sada da se
ponašaš kao sujetni klinac i da vičeš: 'neću više da se igram!'...

[] Zašto bih to radio?
Zar je moguće da TEBI, Novice, treba da objašnjavati zašto
se treba ponašati pristojno? :(
[] Zato što TI imaš problem?
Nemam JA problem nego TI! (O prirodi tvog problema neću da
diskutujem jer bi bilo neukusno.)
[] Koji JA treba da reašavam i NE pišem svojim rasporedom???
Ovde si mi veoma olakšao posao ;> jer si i sam (u poruci 14.51)
napisao:
[] Još jedan hint: Nije to yusci, nego ascii (lepo sam pišeš da je
[] engleski tekst...)
S obzirom na to da koristiš kodni raspored koji u sebi ne sadrži
potpun ASCII set, svoje poruke i kod na Sezamu bi trebalo da prilagodiš
tome.
[] Otkud i tebi ideja da mi ti određuješ koji ću raspored koristiti?
Paranoja je sjajna stvar ;>. U ovoj temi ti nigde nisam sugerisao
da treba da koristiš drugi kodni raspored (iako je činjenica da bi to
bilo i lepše i konstruktivnije rešenje problema ;) ). Od tebe se ovde
traži samo da podesiš kodni raspored na NONE kada šalješ ASCII, a da ga
podesiš na YUSCII kada šalješ YUSCII. Dakle, samo za tebe, ono što si
tisuću puta do sada video (upućeno drugim korisnicima):
SET CODE!
[] Ja sebi ne bih takvo pravo davao dokle god sam pri zdravoj svesti.
Kada je to poslednji put bilo? ;)
[] Podrazumeva se da ću pisati kako pišem, uključujući tu i kodni raspored,
Nema problema, Novice. Trpeću i dalje tvoja iživljavanja i praštaću
ti jer te smatram prijateljem :).
[] a tvoja podrazumevanja ostavljam, naravno, tebi.
Da si 'pri zdravoj svesti', shvatio bi da ne treba da koristiš
dva različita kodna rasporeda u jednoj poruci.
[] I ne davite više ovim lenjiraškim trivijalnostima, gde se drugi ima
[] pokoriti tuđim tehničkim uzusima.
Jok, nego ćemo da se pokorimo hirovima esejističkog ekstremiste
koji je umislio da je Vojvoda od Šibernetske Autonomne Oblasti ;>.
Lepo je od tebe što si konstatovao da su u pitanju trivijalnosti,
ali je tužno to što ti te trivijalnosti ne shvataš.

Ovako izgleda kada se tekst na nemačkom pošalje sa SET CODE Custom2,
a u (mom) odgovoru imaš isti taj tekst poslat tako što je u exec pre poruke
stavljeno SET CODE NONE, a posle poruke SET CODE Custom2. Oni koji koriste
C2 neće primetiti razliku, ali nije ni bitno jer je cilj ovoga da pokažem
da se i sa C2 mogu javiti problemi kakvi se (vrlo često ;> ) javljaju kada
se koristi YUSCII.

1. Patetično - jer zaista nemam volje da svaki drugi dan objašnjavam
da je svima pod rukom i resign i ignore, da neću prepričavati već
davati izvorni Internet materijal, da su poruke dugačke jer su takve?
Nije patetično - nego je meni postalo dosadno. Jaaaako dosadno.
2. Yuscii/Ascii: kombinacija je izuzetno fleksibilna za Internet
razmenu: sedmobitna je (što je jako važno), i bez problema se može -
ko je koristi - grafički menjati na ekranu (bilo GBiočićevim Foggy
programom, bilo NBogićevićevim paketom za YUS015); takođe je jako
fleksibilna za rad pod Linuxom. Dokle god tako bude, ne menja mi se ta
kombinacija. (Skakanje u exec pred svako slanje, tj. skakanje kroz
rasporede, lišava me upravo te kombinacije; odustajanje od domaćih
slova nije cena koja mi se plaća ni u kojoj varijanti - pisao sam
zimus onoliko o tome da BeoNet vrska poput klinca koji nije pošao u
osnovnu školu.) Verujem u konvenciju po kojoj primalac teksta
konvertuje u svoj kodni raspored, koji hoće i kako hoće, a ne
pošiljalac. (Da šaljem neki C source, a ne običan tekst, još bih
razumeo...)
3. Neću, dakle - ok, ali ne smem da kažem - neću! :))) U poređenju s
ovom logikom, sve više mi se sviđa sujeta klinaca koji, kad kažu neću, i
misle - neću. :)
4. Neka živi. Ja sam skeptičan u pogledu sadašnjeg Sezama kao mesta za
nju. Ali nastavite, cyber-polje je široko, na sreću. :) Konačno,
valjda i ja treba da imam nešto da čitam.

cyber.culture.80rcolic,
Evo jednog teksta koji sam nasao u jednom starom broju
magazina ACE (za igre i ostalo). Iako je tekst malo
out-of-date prilicno me je zainteresovao. Jedini je problem
sto sve to izgleda malo kao varka. Uostalom, prosudite sami.
Interesuje me da li je neko cuo nesto vise o tome posto je ovo
tekst iz 1991 a od tada nema reci o ovome (ili ja nisam naisao
na isto). Da skratim..
P.S. izvinjavam se na (ne)kvalitetu slika, posto imam samo
rucni skener.

Is Virtual Reality a thing of the past?
Just when games developers had begun to comprehend
the myriad opportunities presented by breakthroughs
in VR, APOLLO COMMUNICATIONS pull the rug from under
their feet. ACE reveals the stunning secrets behind
Actual Reality!
A converted men's sauna in South Wales is not the most likely
place you'd expect to find what could be the most amazing new
development in computer entertainment since the last one. It's
the unlikely home to Apollo Communications, founded by
managing director, chief engineer and sole employee Vince
Tyrell. For the last year he has been working on his incredible
Actual Reality Sensory Environment, or 'A.R.S.E.', and - out
of the blue - invited ACE to take a look.
The A.R.S.E. is light years ahead of any other VR system yet
seen. The speed, detail and realism of the images generated by
the machine are quite literally fantastic - just take a look
at some astounding photos on this page (slike su okacene uz
poruku - prim.prep). What you can't tell from these static shots
is how realistically all the non-visual aspects are modelled as
well. Every sound and smell is stunningly reproduced. Touch an
object and you can feel its surface texture and temperature.
Pick it up and the object's weight and dynamics are exactly
simulated. If you didn't know better, you'd swear it was real.
Vince stresses the full potential of the A.R.S.E. has barely
been explored and it still has quite a bit of work to be done
on it, such as shrinking the hardware to a portable size and
casing design. But Vince is confident that, finances
permitting, everything is on schedule for the anticipated
April 1992 launch. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait. As
Vince says, "My A.R.S.E. is unbelievable!"
INSIDE THE A.R.S.E.
Vince is justifyably proud of his A.R.S.E., and is naturally a
little reticient about giving too many details of the
technical specifications - his system is far and away superior
to anything else in development by companies such as W Industries
or VPL. When pushed he did offer this , "Basically, it's all
very complex."
The most immediately stunning aspect of the system is its
graphic capabilities. All the objects in the 'game world' are
modelled from polygons, just like the 3D graphics found in
most games, although far more advanced. Vince eagerly reels of
a stream of highly impressive statistics, "It can generate
around 40 million pollygons per second (using a blitter
adapted from the design used in the Amiga), each of which is
any one of over 64 million colours, which is far more than
even Amiga in HAM mode. Image update takes place every 50th of
a second to ensure maximum realism."
But the A.R.S.E. can do far more than just generating high-end
graphics. Using a unique and revolutionary nerve-induction
technique based on carefully-controlled microwave beams
transmitted into the brain, the A.R.S.E. can trick the brain
into hearing, smelling, tasting and feeling anything the
programmer requires. This approachhas resulted in a complete
VR system with all the necessary hardware, bar the complex
computer centre, fitting into a compact lightweight headset.
Portability has been one of Vince's main objectives. The
computer centre and headset communicate via a radio link - no
clumsy trailing cables to get under your feet here! Vince
admits that the computer centre is the system's only major bug
- it's just too large. Eventually customised chips will
drastically reduce the size - and cost! - of the system.
Unfortunatelly it wasn't possible to get a look at the
computer due to the possibility of upseting the delicate
magnetic and electric flux fields pervading the computer room,
although Vince did show me a picture of it.
LIVING ROOM OF THE FUTURE?
At the moment the only fully-working simulated environment is
one Vince calls simply 'Living Room'. Vince invited me to try
it out and I eagerly accepted. I donned the headset and then
Vince placed a dark bag over my head while he calibrated some
of the AR settings. Vince apologised for this; apparently the
system is very sensitive to ultraviolet while being adjusted
and very bright lights could easily damage the delicate (and
expensive!) sensory equipment.
With the bag still over my head Vince lead me to the 'game
room'. The radio transmitter currently used is a little weak
and player mobility has to be restricted to an area near the
computer's transmitter. This will be improved in the final
system so that the wearer could walk just about anywhere.
Eventually Vince shouted from next door that I could take the
bag off. I was in the 'Living Room'...
Words really can't convey the amazing feeling of interacting
with this highly realistic yet artificial environment. I could
pick up objects and put them elsewhere, look inside them,
touch, smell and taste them - the crunchy apples in the fruit
bowl were delicious! I knocked into a chair and felt pain
shoot through my shin! I turned on a lamp and instantly the
light-source shading on the other objects in the room changed
accordingly!
After a few minutes I became so overwhelmed by the experience
that I began to feel a little giddy so I replaced the bag on
my head, thus ending the session. I heard Vince enter the
'game room' and he helped me to a chair in his office. I was
shaking, such ways the system's effect on me! Any who doubt
the power of VR, and the A.R.S.E. in particular, should give
it a try!
THE MAN BEHIND THE MYTH
Vince Tyrell has had a fascinatingly varied life. He was born
in 1961 in Deptford, south-east London. His father was a car
salesman and it was in the car repair shop round the back of
the showroom that Vince first developed a love of technology
and gadgets. As Vince recalls, "Dad was very keen for me to
learn 'the business', as he called it. Some of my earliest
memoriess are of peering inside a car bonnet, tinkering with
the engine and fiddling with the mileometer."
Vince was never happy with formal schooling and left as soon
as possible at 15. "Them teachers never taught me nothing of
use.", says Vince, his voice tinged with a hint of bitterness.
For a while he worked for his father, but knew that his future
lay elsewhere. Unfortunatelly his father felt otherwise. "Dad
wanted me to learn and carry on the family trade, whereas I
felt that we should sell up and put our money into other, more
profitable markets. But Dad lacked my vision, you see? Sadly
he died in a tragic accident while cleaning my shotgun and -
Mum having run-off with his ex-partner several years earlier -
left me everything."
Although deeply saddened at his father death, Vince sold the
garage a couple of days after the funeral and found himself,
aged 22, with lots of money and the opportunity to direct his
own future. It was around this time that he first began to get
interested in the world of computers. He recalls, "Yeah, I
thought they were amazing. I used to buy old disused models,
open them up and have look inside. It's amazing how much gold
you can scrape from those old circuit boards."
In 1984 Vince started his own company, Apollo Communications,
selling portable phones imported from Taiwan. He later
returned to selling other goods imported from Far East, such
as calculators, electronic diaries and Phillipino wives.
However, it was in 1987 that Vince first heard about Virtual
Reality and became fascinated by its potential. "I realised
that other researchers were thinking about VR the wrong way.
They try to fool the punter's senses. My A.R.S.E. takes that
concept a stage further and concetrates on just fooling the
punter."
Vince started work on the revolutionary system in May 1990 and
now feels his A.R.S.E. is ready for inspection. "I'm very
happy with it so far," he enthuses, "However, there's still a
fair bit of work to be done and my limited funds are running
low. I'm keen to hear from anyone willing to invest in me and
my company. About 250.000 GBP - in cash, preferably, should do
the trick, but more would be nice."
GAMES WITHOUT FRONTIERS
Vince sees the main application for the A.R.S.E. being
entertainment, and has several game ideas in development. He
enthuses, "The realism of my A.R.S.E. is incredible. Play
'Actual Tennis' and you'll finish the set tired out with
blisters on your hand from the racket." The high level of
realism does have its drawbacks though; the planned 'M25
Frogger' and 'Rottweiler Attack' have had to be scrapped.
Vince also sees 'adult' entertainment possibilities, and is
working on some '18+' game modules. "Cor, it'd be great,"
drools Vince, "I've put my name down to playtest those ones
personally."

PUBFIGHT.PCX
The proposed 'Pub Fighter' game. It's so sophisticated that
you'll drink and actually feel as you're getting drunk. The
more you drink the more aggressive you'll get. There are
different fight scenarios, such as 'Did you spill my pint?' or
'That's my girl you're looking at'. Playtesters have
complained of real bruises and hangovers after a long play
session.
LIVING.PCX
'The Living Room', currently Vince's only fully working Actual
Reality environment.
COMPUTER.PCX
This huge computer is the force driving the system. Vince
assures ACE that "this will be compressed using customised

cyber.culture.92fancy,
ŮŢ> Od tvoje poruke od pre godinu dana da ne šaljem pesme Miloša
ŮŢ> Crnjanskog, do tvog sitničavog pljuckanja po ovoj temi, koja je za
ŮŢ> tebe "pretenciozna do bola", obišao si pun krug.
Šta je ovo, pamti pa vrati..?
A da li se sećaš kako sam te zezao za vitlanje sa mrežama..? Ne, nemoj
to da zaboraviš, kao ni to da sam te zamalo pokosio na pešačkom prelazu,
a da ne pominjem kako sam te zajebavao što nisi upgrade-ovao qemm 7.06c
na qemm 7.07b, naravno sve uvrede na račun linuxa i x-windowsa se pomno
pamte, a kao šlag bi bilo bezrazložno šutiranje tvog dobermana i
odbijanje da ti povećam nivo na mom BBS-u... E, da, kad smo kod toga,
neka se ne zaboravi kako sam ti još u školi lupao šljage kad ne bi imao
siću da platiš prolaz, zatim te zvao noćima tačno u 2h 20min i
uznemiravao tvoje roditelje nekad a tvoju suprugu sada, bezobraznim
predlozima. Sećaš se kako nisam glasao za tvoj vic u vote-u za vic
meseca? A onda kad su preuzimali Književni Zabavnik stavio sam se na
stranu pučističkog predsedništva i javno govorio kako tvoje tekstove
treba baciti na đubrište istorije... a onomad kad sam ti rekao da
sumnjam da si Hrvat, ili kad sam te pitao da li nosiš periku... i kad
sam poverovao i čak proširio trač o tvojim sumnjivim seksualnim
opredeljenjima, pa kad sam ti krao pisma iz poštanskog sandučeta, ili
onda kad sam ti provalio pass na Korozija BBS-u, optuživao te da pišeš
dugačke poruke i njima truješ omladinu, pa kad sam te prijavio zbog
neplaćanja TV pretplate i fizički nasrnuo na tvoju maloletnu ćerku, i
onda kad sam ti zagradio kola na parkingu, napravio rekordni skor u
Tetrisu na tvom računaru, sjeb'o init string modema, pokušao da ti
instaliram windows, nabacivao se ribi kojoj si se nabacivao, valjao ti
loš staff, poslao te na domine u chatu, zatim pokušao da zapalim tvog
(išutiranog) dobermana, i konačno, nepravedno bi bilo ne pomenuti i
nepravedne sankcije.
ŮŢ> Ipak, za samo jedan dan sam se uverio da ipak ima ovde i drugačijih od
ŮŢ> tebe, Nenada, Milana...
Palo etiketiranje..? a?
ŮŢ> Učinićeš mi uslugu ako ponoviš svoj "goodbye c.c.".
Ajde..? Biće da si me pogrešno razumeo... nije u mojoj prirodi da
pravim velike oproštaje sa najavljivanjem, pucanjem i plakanjem, a ono
ti je samo bilo zbogom (c.) kulturi koju daviš svojim rigidnim stavom
i talentom da svaku dobronamernu kritiku shvatiš kao napad na lični
integritet, i integritet ti kodnog rasporeda.
Možeš da bežiš od prijatelja, ali od sebe ne možeš pobeći.

malo diplomatije i odgovoriš nešto poput ovog što sam gore
kvotirala, (svi bi pretpostavljam, rekli ok. stvarmo čovek se

nameru ništa da menjam, to je vaš problem', revoltirajući tako i
njih i one kojima ne smeta jusci, nego ton rasprave.

Što vi svi lepo ne biste Novicu ostavili na miru? Ni ja ne koristim
YUSCII pa mi opet ne smeta u njegovim porukama. To me više podseća na
sitno glodanje.
Najgora stvar ne SEZAMu jeste baš ta da treba da prođe neko vreme
pre nego što "ćutljiva većina" odluči da se javi u odbranu onoga što
joj se sviđa, a i tada se ne jave svi. Za to vreme "svadljiva manjina"
orgija u napadima kao da je ona taj veći deo populacije kojima se treba
prilagoditi.

žak i ova glupa i besmislena rasprava, iako obe strane teraju mak na konac,
predstavlja svojevrsan izvanredni eksperiment ponašanja u cyberspace okolini.
Eksperiment prikladan upravo u ovoj temi.
Štaviše, pomalo sumnjam da nas Novica navlači na svoju vodenicu. Naprosto ne
mogu da verujem da se čovek sa toliko poznavanja ove materije tako lako
vređa.
Novice, hajde priznaj da nas pališ u ime empirijskog dokazivanja naše
nedozrelosti u cyberspace.

Ipak ne, Veco. :) Nema čistih tema - naslov ove teme je već jedna
čudna legura. Još manje da hoću nešto daleko od naših problema i
frustracija - kultura je naš problem prvog reda, a naročito kultura -
onaj skup vrednosti, stavova, ponašanja, shvatanja - vezana za novu i
izuzetno moćnu tehnologiju (kibernetičku). Barem tako vidim ovu temu,
i shodno tome se u njoj ponašam. Nagovaranje mic-po-mic možda bi bilo
uspešnije, za onog ko ima više vremena. Sve je ovde, dakle, od naslova
do ideja - "mixed codes", i što pre to prihvatimo, tim bolje. Mixed
codes, mixed themes, mixed feelings, mixed genres, mixed techniques...
(Kompjuter je jedna veeeeoma mixed stvar... Kao i kultura.)

Dalje, s kojim pravom onda ti trażi╣ od nekoga da poŔne da koristi

Na svu sreŠu, autori Sezamovog softvera su se potrudili da nam
u╣tede taj trud. Za╣to onda to i ne iskoristiti? I, kako se ovo uklapa
sa mojim prethodnim pitanjem?
p.s. I da zavr╣imo sa ovom nadasve glupom raspravom. Sve je poŔelo mojom
porukom u kojoj sam te, krajnje dobronamerno, zamolio da nam olak╣a╣
praŠenje ove izuzetno lepe i zanimljive teme. Zamolio sam te, jer po mom
shvatanju konvencije, onaj ko ╣alje neku poruku (materijal, fajl, bilo
╣ta) treba da se potrudi da je prilagodi primaocu, naroŔito ako je reŔ o
╣irem skupu ljudi.
Sad Šu malo da lenjira╣im: ja imam Amigu. Standardni arhiver je LHA.
Oznaka za EOL je LF. Imena mogu biti proizvoljno dugaŔka. Koristim
Latin2 kodni raspored. Meutim, kada god ╣aljem ne╣to ╣to mislim da Še
biti zanimljivo veŠini ljudi ovde, potrudim se da ga prilagodim toj
veŠini - prepakujem ZIP-om 2.0, dodam CR na kraj reda, preimenujem u
skladu sa DOS-ovom 8+3 konvencijom. Zato sam i smatrao da imam pravo da
te _zamolim_ za takvu uslugu, naroŔito zato ╣to to i ne pretstavlja neki
veliki napor.
No, nema veze. Se╣Šu, napraviŠu makro ili programŔe za konverziju
YUSCII -> ASCII (promena fonta _ne pomaże_, ), potro╣iŠu par sati na
konverziju, i Boże moj. ćTo se ostalih tiŔe, neka sami re╣avaju problem.
p.p.s. Ova poruka je pisana Latin2 (ISO8859-2) kodnim rasporedom. Ako
vam ovaj raspored ne odgovara, sasvim jednostavno Šete re╣iti taj
problem. Snimite ovu poruku iz omiljenog OLR-a u fajl, obri╣ite je u
OLR-u, izaite iz OLR-a, konvertujte poruku o vama odgovarajuŠi kodni
raspored, i ponovo uŔitajte u SOR. Kao ╣to vidite, sasvim jednostavno.
Ako nemate program za konverziju, skinite ga sa nekog BBS-a, ili ako ne
postoji, napi╣ite ga, ili saŔekajte da ga neko drugi napi╣e.

" Novice, hajde priznaj da nas pališ u ime empirijskog dokazivanja naše
" nedozrelosti u cyberspace.
Dr.Grba me provalio. :)) - Samo, i ja sam jednako (ne)zreo kao i
drugi, i ja hoću da naučim o cyberu što više (e, tu možda ima onih
koji neće, pa se nešto razlikujemo), a sve ovo je potrebno čim se
događa, i pokazuje, što se mene tiče, moju distancu prema
tehnikalijama (većina, bojim se, to doživljava kao svetogrđe).
Ali, da idem i dalje: Neke stvari nisu važne. Nije važno kakav je trenutni
OS, važno je da mora biti (nekakvog) OS. Zašto? (To su pitanja koja bi
Ana postavila, zar ne?) žudna pitanja, i meni traženje odgovora na njih
izgleda manje tehnička rabota a više stvar za razmišljanje. OS jeste
tehničko rešenje nekog problema - ali u osnovi svih tih tehničkih
rešenja stoji problem odnosa humanoida i mašine. Interface je uvek
neka maska, zar ne, a maska je uvek stvar scene, a scena je stvar za
neku radnju, a neka radnja je - uvek ljudska radnja. Malo nategnuto
i prebrzo možda, ali mi taj pravac misli izgleda vredan znatiželje.
Možda su tehnika (ubrzanje) i misao (usporenje, uvek potrebno za
analizu) tu u razlazu, a možda taj razlaz vredi više no njihovo
slaganje i prijanjanje gde ih više ne razlikujemo?

" šaljem tekst koji obiluje uglastim zagradama (sors u paskalu, na

Kad budem slao sors, biće tako. Dotle, ovako. Ima svoje zašto, i na
tebi je da to uvažiš ili ne uvažiš. Tekstovi koje šaljem teško da
"obiluju" uglastim zagradama. Sasvim su čitljivi nezavisno od njih.
cyber.culture.114novim,
" Aman, ako ovako izgleda "konstruktivna kritika" onu drugu bolje ni
" da ne vidimo :(
Po "logici" koja se nekako i na žalost ustalila na Sezamu, ova tvoja
poruka se ne važi, jerbo si protiv ... (a "zna se" itd.). - Treba
prekinuti tu nakaradnu logiku: u nekim stvarima ću se složiti s tobom,
u drugim neću. (Kao i ti sa mnom, naravno.) U jednoj temi se slažem s
jednim, ali se ne slažem u drugoj s tim istim, i tako dalje. To je
prirodno. Tako po Sezamu i radim: ali izgleda da ljudi shvataju da ako
se u nečemu negde ne složiš s njima, postaješ im "neprijatelj", misliš
o njima sve najlošije, pa te proganjaju iz jedne rasprave u drugu,
kako bi "nadoknadili" (i valjda se "osvetili")...
Otuda: ako raspravljamo s nekim, to treba shvatiti i da su njegove
poruke vredne rasprave (prosto pokazujemo da se isti predmet može
osvetliti iz više uglova, a kakav će konačan stav ko da izvuče iz
rasprave, to je već njegova stvar), a ne da je partner iz rasprave
neznalica ili idiot. Na Sezamu je ova kultura rasprave jadna; ovde se
pokazuje najviše da neko mora imati poslednju reč. Ovde se rasprava
tera dok se svima ne ogadi. Jednom navesti neki razlog ovde ne znači
ništa. Ako ga nisi ponovio barem nekoliko puta, ovde se taj razlog i
ne čuje. Ovde je ego juzera jači od sveg drugog; tuđi ego je tek povod
da se istakne svoj, i tako ukrug. :((
Koji bi zapravo kodeks rasprave valjao za cyberspace? Improvizujem:
1. Osvetliti predmet iz više no jednog ugla.
2. Biti tolerantan i ne tražiti da se partner u raspravi potčini tvom
kodu bez ostatka (kod u najširem smislu).
3. Imati distancu (rezervu) prema svim odsečnim stavovima, imati
rezervu prema tvrdnjama koje se ispostavljaju kao poslednje istine (a
naučne tvrdnje često u jednom času izgledaju tako), dopustiti,
makar kao mogućnost, da uvek "iza" ima još nešto.
Itd.
Sve to valja da važi i za normalnu raspravu, a ne samo cyberdiscourse.
Ali, previše se to "podrazumeva", pa se zaboravi. Voleo bih da možemo
napraviti jedan "algoritam" (kodeks pravila) za kibernaute. :)
cyber.culture.115novim,
Odgovor ćeš naći u CONF chat. Ovde je dosta bilo mog ponavljanja,
izgleda da ne vredi ništa, pa da rešimo to tamo. Predložio bih ti da
svoju poruku prebaciš tamo (ne moraš, naravno), da ovde ipak nastavimo
o nekim drugim stvarima, o ovoj je bilo i previše.

cyber.culture.122max.headroom,
Eto, baš nešto voajerišem po temi, pa rek'o da i sam napišem koju
pametnu ;) Prvo, da se izjasnim da baš ništa ne shvatam od iznesenog -
pominju se nekakve sub-kulture, neke madžije :), štatigajaznam šta sve
ne... Od kompjutera se stvara fama, bre, kao da smo u ranim
osamdesetim.
Iz mog ugla, kompjuter omogućuje nešto sasvim novo (and now, something
completely different) u domenu međuljudske komunikacije: informacije
postaju svakome brzo dostupne, paketi informacija su sažetiji, i one
se mogu razmenjivati sa svima onima koji imaju pristup svetskoj mreži.
To je ono što će ljudsku svest, eventualno, pomaći za korak napred.
Više nije važno ko je sagovornik i šta stoji iza njega (firma, vlada,
etc.) - bitna je informacija i njen kvalitet. Sve to me podseća na
pra-preteču onoga što nazivamo "telepatskom komunikacijom", iliti
razmenom misli.
Sledeći "udar" je pojava Virtual Reality. Danas je tipa: stavi šlem na
glavu, uđi u neku drugu "dimenziju" i uživaj. Praktično primenljivo,
ali i zabavno. Hoćemo li svi, jednoga dana, sedeti u termos-bocama,
priključeni na hranilice i stimulatore nervnog sistema, zajedno
učestvujući u nekoj drugoj "realnosti"?
E, a kada prevaziđemo i taj hardware, počinje zabava :)

cyber.culture.124sale,
>> Tema ukrštenih jezika - ili: onih krštenih i onih nekrštenih :)
>> - spada ovde, po mom mišljenju.
:)) Pre godinu dana, držao sam kurs iz računarskih komunikacija jednoj
devojci. Pošto sam trebao dosta stvari da instaliram, a tada po pravilu uvek
ponešto ide malo zaobilaznijim putem nego što treba, počeo sam da se nerviram.
To uvek dovodi do toga da počnem da moljakam, psujem i pretim računaru. Ona je
sve to gledala.
Posle 20-tak minuta, sam se povezao na cyberspace da joj pokažem šta je to, i
tu me je zatekla poruka prijatelja (naravno, koji je nekih 100-tinak
kilometara odavde) u kojoj mi je pisao o svojim nevoljama sa nekom devojkom.
"Ne vredi, kad god probam da je alociram, dobijem 'device busy' ili 'device
occupied by another user'. Nije mi preostalo ništa drugo, nego da se
disuserujem iz tog sistema..." ili tako nekako.
Njena reakcija je bila: "Pa vi ste sve preokrenuli! Sa računarom pričaš kao
sa čovekom, a sa drugarom kao sa računarom!"
A jeste li probali da napravite potpunu semantičku paralelu nekih oblasti
real- i cyber- života?
cyber.culture.125sale,
>> A meni niko još nije objasnio šta je to cyber.culture. :(
Cyberspace je paralelni svet realnom, koji se nalazi oko nas, a realizuje se
računarskim komunikacijama. Dakle Sezam je jedan veliki deo tog prostora.
Ovo pisanje poruka, chat-ovanje, prenos datoteka, sve je to deo naših
aktivnosti u tom, drugom, svetu.
Cyber Culture je, sledi, kultura u tom svetu.

[] 2. Biti tolerantan i ne tražiti da se partner u raspravi potčini tvom
[] kodu bez ostatka (kod u najširem smislu).
TI sasvim sigurno nisi bio tolerantan i sve vreme si (implicitno)
tražio da se drugi potčine tvom kodnom rasporedu! ;(
Poruka koje su obilovale uglastim & vitičastim zagradama nije
bilo mnogo, a ti nisi hteo da zbog tih nekoliko poruka koje su bile
ASCII, a ne YUSCII (sam si to priznao!) podesiš svoj kod na Sezamu
(samo za tu priliku, naravno). Time si prekršio neka osnovna pravila
pristojnog ponašanja i, što je najgore, nisi se izvinio nego si
uporno tvrdio da nemaš ti problem, nego da ga drugi imaju i insistirao
na tome da nemaš nameru ništa da menjaš.
OK, mogu i da ti poverujem da nemaš problem jer ti valjda
sam najbolje znaš da li ga imaš ;> (samo mi nije jasno što si tako
nad*kan), a slažem se da ja imam problem, ali problem koji si TI
napravio.
Moglo bi ti se i oprostiti kada bi se uzelo u obzir da si
(pretpostavljam) imao problema s matematikom u školi pa ti nije baš
najjasnije kako funkcioniše konverzija kodnih rasporeda na Sezamu,
ali ti si sam rekao da su to 'tehničke trivijalnosti'. ;>
Tvoja basna o s&r je dokaz kako ti je sve jasno ;>. Umesto
da Sezam obavi konverziju i da sve bude OK, ti insistiraš na tome
da nekoliko desetina ljudi to radi 'ručno'. Pri tome (pretpostavljam)
nisi prevideo činjenicu da oni koji imaju SET CODE NONE ne mogu
izvršiti ni s&r jer ne treba svako S i C u tekstu da im bude zamenjeno
zagradama.
Ona druga, ona o 'Biočićevom programčetu' je vrhunac! ;( Kao
postoji programče koje (promenom fonta) Š i Ć po C2 ili CP852 ili nekom
trećem rasporedu pretvara u [ i ] pritiskom nekog tamo tastera...
Postoji q*! ;( To, Novice, funkcioniše samo ako koristiš YUSCII, a
s obzirom da si ti to znao (jer si rekao da su sve to 'tehničke
trivijalnosti'), izvodi se jasan zaključak da si time predlagao da
se ostali 'potčine tvom kodu'.
Nemoj sada još poricati da si propagirao YUSCII u epu
'Kako Veliki Novica zamišlja Unix & Internet'.
Uostalom, kombinacija YUSCII/ASCII je jasna svakom poštenom
Albancu jer je YUSCII jedini domaći kodni raspored koji sadrži potpuni
ASCII, za razliku od CP852, C2... ;)))
Sve u svemu poneo si se kao sjajan domaćin :(, kao razmaženi
klinac koji je izneo svoju loptu na igralište i (s obzirom da ne zna
da igra) počeo da određuje ko sme da igra, a ko ne sme, kako će i šta
da se igra, koja su pravila, kada je faul, kada je gol... OK, to je
tvoje pravo, ali takvim ponašanjem sigurno nisi stekao prijatelje :(.

Treba napomenuti da pored opšteg oduševljenja i raznih filozofskih i
kvazi-filozofskih priča o cyberspace-u, postoji i jaka struka koja smatra da
je to samo prolazna moda. Tj. da kako se pojavi novo tehnološko dostignuće
koje omogućava komunikaciju ljudi, tako odmah krene euforija koja kasnije
splasne. Baš je skoro bio na Sezamu, ili mi se samo čini, tekst u kome je
autor poredio Internet euforiju sa CB euforijom sa početka osamdesetih. A
na nekom drugom mestu sam pronašao zanimljivo poređenje istorijskih vidova
komunikacije počevši od goluba pismonoša do Internet-a. Navodno, tehnologija
se menja, suština ostaje ista.

Ako suštinu svedemo na jednu riječ, komunikacija, onda je naravno ista.
Mđt, pojam komunikacije se 'širi' i komunikacija je sve lakša i bogatija.
Lakša - ne moram da hranim golubove, samo se nadam biće struja i prestaće
PTT sankcije:), bogatija - multimedija, mnogi ljudi mnogo posla završavaju
na računaru i Internet im omogućava brzu razmjenu svega što proizvedu na
njemu.
Ključna razlika, i nedostižna prednost, Interneta (svedenog samo na
email, i to je dovoljno) nad CBom je ne-neophodnost istovremenog rada.
O nekom 'sunovratu' Interneta možemo razgovarati kad neko definiše
'vrhunac' istog. Meni lično, Internet sa mail, news, ftp (+archie i slično)
i WWW je just enough. Naravno, sve to začinjeno sa 50-ak Kb/sec highwayOm,

Nekako mi se samo po sebi nameće pitanje "a čemu to služi?"...
Dakle, kroz koju godinu imaćemo zaista svetske mreže, i najzad
utvrditi da "New York postoji", tj. da ljudi (isti kao i mi) ne žive
samo u komšiluku, već ih ima x milijardi, te da svi imaju slične
probleme kao i mi. Dalje, kroz koju deceniju će neko osmisliti
organizacioni metod kojim će se velike grupe ljudi uključiti u
rešavanje nekog OZBILJNOG problema, i taj će problem (glavu dajem)
biti ubrzo rešen. Pa onda sledi napadanje sledećeg ozbiljnog problema,
i tako sve dok ljudi ne ostave iza sebe sve brige koje ih momentalno
more :) A i tada će, verovatno, žovek i dalje sumnjati u činjenicu da
mu je osnovni problem baš u glavi (žovek, inače, misli da su problemi
oko njega, ne u njemu), pa će otići u Virtual Reality i tamo živeti
dok mu ne dosadi. Šta će dalje biti - Bog sveti zna; možda čovečanstvo
krene u razvijanje neke nove filozofije koja će mu olakšati spoznaju
vlastite gluposti. Možda zaključi da mu je potrebna telepatija. Možda
je i dokuči, zajedno sa telekinezom, "astralnom projekcijom za po
kući", i svime što sledi - ... - a šta onda? Kada zaviri svuda gde
može i ne može da se zaviri, i otkrije sve oko njega još
neotkriveno... :) Hmh, tek će tada imati problem.
Iako ova pitanja i pretpostavke nemaju direktne veze sa Cyber
"kulturom" (a zašto ne "TV kultura" i "TV Space" - TV je više promenio
žoveka nego tek odnedavno osmišljeni kompjuter), zanimljiva su, i ne
spadaju ni u jednu drugu konferenciju, ako ništa drugo :)
Tek, kompjuter je samo pomagalo pri komuniciranju i težnji za
Globalnom Razmenom Informacija (pa za ćega nam, ba, glava služi, kad
moramo koristiti mašiner'ju?) Zato i ne treba dizati toliku prašinu -
stvari ionako dolaze na svoje mesto same od sebe ;)

Evo ga i drugi nastavak Burning Chrome-a!!
BURNING CHROME
Written by William Gibson
PART TWO
I don't remember how I changed the
subject, but I did.
I was still telling myself that it
wasn't Rikki who was getting to me, but
what Bobby was doing with her. I'd
known him for a long time, since the
end of the war, and I knew he used
women as counters in a game, Bobby
Quine versus fortune, versus time and
the night of cities. And Rikki had
turned up just when he needed something
to get him going, something to aim for.
So he'd set her up as a symbol for
everything he wanted and could not
have, everything he'd had and couldn't
keep.
I didn't like having to listen to him
tell me how much he loved her, and
knowing he believed it only made it
worse. He was a past master at the
hard fall and the rapid recovery, and
I'd seen it happen a dozen times
before. He might as well have had NEXT
printed across his sunglasses in
Day-Glo capitals, ready to flash out at
the first interesting face that flowed
past the tables in the Gentleman Loser.
I knew what he did to them. He turned
them into emblems, sigils on the map of
his hustler's life, navigation beacons
he could follow through a sea of bars
and neon. What else did he have to
steer by? He didn't love money, in and
of itself, not enough to follow its
lights. He wouldn't work for power
over other people; he hated the
responsibility it brings. He had some
classic pride in his skill, but that
was never enough to keep him pushing.
So he made do with the women.
When Rikki showed up, he needed one in
the worst way. He was fading fast, and
smart money was already wispering that
the edge was off his game. He needed
that one big score, and soon, because
he didn't know any other kind of life,
and all his clocks were set for
hustler's time, calibrated in risk and
adrenaline and that supernal dawn calm
that comes when every move's proved
right and a sweet lump of someone
else's credit clicks into your own
account.
It was time for him to make his bundle
and get out; so Rikki got set up higher
and farther away than any of the others
ever had, even though - and I felt like
screaming it at him - she was right
there, alive, totally real, human,
hungry, resilent, bored, beautiful,
excited, all the things she was...
Then he went out one afternoon, about a
week before I made the trip to New York
to see the Finn. Went out and left us
there in the loft, waiting for a
thunderstorm. Half the skylight was
shadowed by a dome they'd never
finished, and the other half showed
sky, black and blue with clouds. I was
standing by the bench, looking up at
that sky, stupid with hot afternoon,
the humidity, and she touched me,
touched my shoulder, the half-inch
border of taut pink scar that the arm
doesn't cover. Anybody else ever
touched me there, they went on to the
shoulder, the neck...
But she didn't do that. Her nails
lacquered black, not pointed, but
tapered oblongs, the lacquer only a
shade darker than the carbon-fiber
laminate that sheathes my arm. And her
hand went down the arm, black nails
tracing a weld in the laminate, down to
the black anodized elbow joint, out to
the wrist, her hand soft-knuckled as a
child's, fingers spreading to lock over
mine, her palm against the perforated
Duralumin.
Her other palm came up to brush across
the feedback pads, and it rained all
afternoon, raindrops drumming on the
steel and soot-stained glass above
Bobby's bed.
Ice walls flick away like supersonic
butterflies made of shade. Beyond
them, the matrix's illusion of infinite
space. It's like watching a tape of a
prefab building going up; only the
tape's reversed and run at high speed,
and these walls are torn wings.
Trying to remind myself that this place
and the gulfs beyond are only
representations, that we aren't 'in'
Chrome's computer, but interfaced with
it, while the matrix simulator in
Bobby's loft generates this illusion...
The core data begin to emerge, exposed,
vulnerable... This is the far side of
ice, the view of the matrix I've never
seen before, the view that fifteen
million legitimate console operators
see daily and take for granted.
The core data tower around us like
vertical freight trains, color-coded
for access. Bright primaries,
impossibly bright in that transparent
void, linked by countless horizontals
in the nursery blues and pinks.
But ice still shadows something at the
center of it all: the heart of all
Chrome's expencive darkness, the very
heart...
It was late afternoon when I got back
from my shopping expedition to New
York. Not much sun through the
skylight, but an ice pattern glowed on
Bobby's monitor screen, a 2-D graphic
representation of someone's computer
defences, lines of neon woven like an
Art Deco prayer rug. I turned the
console off, and the screen went
completely dark.
Rikki's things were spread across my
workbench, nylon bags spilling clothes
and makeup, a pair of bright red cowboy
boots, audio cassettes, glossy Japanese
magazines about simstim stars. I
stacked it all under the bench and then
took the arm off, forgetting that the
program I'd bought from the Finn was in
the right-hand pocket of my jacket, so
that I had to fumble it out left-handed
and then get it into the padded jaws of
the jeweler's vise.
The waldo looks like an old audio
turntable, the kind that played disc
records, with the vise set up under a
transparent dust cover. The arm itself
is just over a centimeter long,
swinging out on what would've been the
tone arm on one of those turntables.
But I don't look at that when I've
clipped the leads to my stump; I look
at the scope, because that's my arm
there in black and white, magnification
40X.
I ran a tool check and picked up the
lazer. It felt a little heavy; so I
scaled my weight-sensors input down to
a quarter-kilo per gram and got to
work. At 40X the side of the program
looked like a trailer truck.
It took eight hours to crack: three
hours with the waldo and the laser and
four and four dozen taps, two hours on
the phone to a contact in Colorado, and
three hours to run down a lexicon disc
that could translate eitht-year-old
technical Russian.
Then Cyrillic alphanumerics started
reeling down the monitor, twisting
themselves into English halfway down.
There were a lot of gaps, where the
lexicon ran up against specialized
military acronyms in the readout I'd
bought from my man in Colorado, but it
did give me some idea of what I'd
bought from the Finn.
I felt like a punk who'd gone out to
buy a switchblade and come home with a
small neutron bomb.
Screwed again, I thought. What good's
a neutron bomb in a streetfight? The
thing under the dust cover was right
out of my league. I didn't even know
where to unload it, where to look for a
buyer. Someone had, but he was dead,
someone with a Porsche watch and a fake
Belgian passport, but I'd never tried
to move in those circles. The Finn's
muggers from the 'burbs had knocked
over someone who had some highly arcane
connections.
The program in the jeweler's vise was a
Russian military icebreaker, a
killer-virus program.
It was dawn when Bobby came in alone.
I'd fallen asleep with a bag of takeout
sandwiches in my lap.
"You want to eat?" I asked him, not
really awake, holding out my
sandwiches. I'd been dreaming of the
program, of its waves of hungry glitch
systems and mimetic subprograms; in the
dream it was an animal of some kind,
shapeless and flowing.
He brushed the bag aside on his way to
the console, punched a function key.
The screen lit with the intricate
pattern I'd seen there that afternoon.
I rubbed sleep from my eyes with my
left hand, one thing I can't do with my
right. I'd fallen asleep trying to
decide whether to tell him about the
program. Maybe I should try to sell it
alone, keep the money, go somewhere
new, ask Rikki to go with me.
"Whose is it?" I asked.
He stood there in a black cotton jump
suit, an old leather jacket thrown over
his shoulder like a cape. He hadn't
shaved for a few days, and his looked
thinner than usual.
"It's Chrome's," he said.
My arm convulsed, started clicking,
fear translated to the myoelectrics
through the carbon studs. I spilled
the sandwiches; limp sprouts, and
bright yellow dairy-produce slices on
the unswept wooden floor.
"You're stone crazy," I said.
"No," he said, "you think she rumbled
it? No way. We'd be dead already. I
locked on to her through a triple-blind
rental system in Mombasa and an
Algerian comsat. She knew somebody was
having a look-see, but she couldn't
trace it."
If Chrome had traced the pass Bobby had
made at her ice, we were good as dead.
But he was probably right, or she'd
have had me blown away on my way back
from New York. "Why her, Bobby? Just
give me one reason..."
Chrome: I'd seen her maybe half a
dozen times in the Gentleman Loser.
Maybe she was slumming, or checking out
the human condition, a condition she
didn't exactly aspire to. A sweet
little heart-shaped face framing the
nastiest pair of eyes you ever saw.
She'd looked fourteen for as long as
anyone could remember, hyped out of
anything like a normal metabolism on
some massive program of serums and
hormones. She was as ugly a customer
as the street ever produced, but she
didn't belong to the street anymore.
She was one of the boys, Chrome, a
member in good standing of the local
Mob subsidary. Word was, she'd gotten
started as a dealer, back when
synthetic pituitary hormones were still
proscribed. But she hadn't had to move
hormones for a long time. Now she
owned the House of Blue Lights.
"You're flat-out crazy, Quine. You
give me one sane reason for having that
stuff on your screen. You ought to
dump it, and I mean now..."
"Talk in the Loser," he said, shrugging
out of the leather jacket. "Black
Myron and Crow Jane. Jane, she's up on
all the sex lines, claims she know
where the money goes. So she's arguing
with Myron that Chrome's the
controlling interest in the Blue
Lights, not just some figurehead for
the Boys."
"'The Boys', Bobby," I said. "That's
the operative word there. You still
capable of seeing that? We don't mess
with the Boys, remember? That's why
we're still walking around."
"That's why we're still poor, partner."
He settled back into the swivel chair
in front of the console, unzipped his
jump suit, and scratched his skinny
white chest. "But maybe not for much
longer."
"I think this partnership just got
itself permanently dissolved."
Then he grinned at me. That grin was
truly crazy, feral and focused, and I
knew that right then he really didn't
give a shit about dying.
"Look," I said, "I've got some money
left, you know? Why don't you take it
and get the tube to Miami, catch a
hopper to Montego Bay. You need a
rest, man. You've got to get your act
together."
"My act, Jack," he said, punching
something on the keyboard, "never has
been this together before." The neon
prayer rug on the screen shivered and
woke as an animation program cut in,
ice lines weaving with hypnotic
frequency, a living mandala. Bobby
kept punching, and the movement slowed;
the pattern resolved itself, grew
slightly less complex, became an
alternation between two distant
configurations. A first-class piece of
work, and I hadn't thought he was still
that good. "Now," he said, "there, see
it? Wait. There. There again. And
there. Easy to miss. That's it. Cuts
in every hour and twenty minutes with a
squirt transmission to their comsat.
We could live for a year on what she
pays them weekly in negative interest."
"Whose comsat?"
"Zurich. Her bankers. That's her
bankbook, Jack. That's where the money
goes. Crow Jane was right."
I stood there. My arm forgot to click.
"So how'd yo do in New York, partner?
You get anything that'll help me cut
ice? We're going to need whatever we
can get."
I kept my eyes on his, forced myself
not to look in the direction of the
waldo, the jeweler's vise. The Russian
program was there, under the dust
cover.
Wild cards, luck changers.
"Where's Rikki?" I asked him, crossing
to the console, pretending to study the
alternating patterns on the screen.
"Friends of hers," he shrugged,
"kids, they're all into simstim." He
smiled absently. "I'm going to do it
for her, man."
"I'm going out to think about this,
Bobby. You want me to come back, you
keep your hands off the board."
"I'm doing it for her," he said as the
door closed behind me. "You know I
am."
And down now, down, the program a
roller coaster through this fraying
maze of shadow walls, gray cathedral
spaces between the bright towers.
Headlong speed.
Black ice. Don't think about it.
Black ice.
Too many stories in the Gentleman
Loser; black ice is a part of the
mythology. Ice that kills. Illegal,
but then aren't we all? Some kind of
neural-feedback weapon, and you connect
with it only once. Like some hideous
Word that eats the mind from the inside
out. Like an epileptic spasm that goes
on and on until there's nothing left at
all...
And we're diving for the floor of
Chrome's shadow castle.
Trying to brace myself for the sudden
stopping of breath, a sickness and
final slackening of the nerves. Fear
of that cold Word waiting, down there
in the dark.
I went out and looked for Rikki, found
her in a cafe with a boy Sendai eyes,
half-healed suture lines radiating form
his bruised sockets. She had a glossy
brochure spread open at the table,
Tally Isham smiling up from a dozen
photographs, the Girl with the Zeiss
Ikon Eyes.
Her little simstim deck was one of the
things I'd stacked under my bench the
night before, the one I'd fixed for her
the day after I'd first seen her. She
spent hours jacked into that unit, the
contact band across her forehead like a
gray plastic tiara. Tally Isham was
her favorite, and with the contact band
on, she was gone, off somewhere in the
recorded sensorium of simstim's biggest
star. Simulated stimuli: the worls -
all the interesting parts, anyway - as
perceived by Tally Isham. Tally raced
a black Fokker ground-effect plane
across Arizona mesa tops. Tally dived
the Truck Island preserves. Tally
partied with the superrich on private
Greek islands, heartbreaking purity of
those tiny white seaports at dawn.
Actually she looked a lot like Tally,
same coloring and cheekbones. I
thought Rikki's mouth was stronger.
More sass. She didn't want to BE Tally
Isham, but she coveted the job. That
was her ambition, to be in simstim.
Bobby just laughed it off. She talked
to me about it, though. "How'd I look
with a pair of these?" she'd ask,
holding a full-page headshot, Tally
Isham's blue Zeiss Ikons lined up with
own amber-brown. She'd had her corneas
done twice, but she still wasn't 20-20;
so she wanted Ikons. Brand of the
stars. Very expensive.
"You still window-shopping for eyes?" I
asked as I sat down.
"Tiger just got some," she said. She
looked tired, I thought.

Da znaš, toliko sam se navikao da se izražavam posebnim jezikom 'za da
može da stane na ekran', da kad napišem nešto pa posle treba da se
prevede na mađarski, drugar se vata za glavu jer ne uspeva da istera
srpsku rečenicu iz glave, a sve se divi kako je kratka i jasna, i na
jedvite jade uspeva da je prevede. Naprimer, u nekoj masci za
ubacivanje na listu čekanja napišem: "prepunjeno: urgentan / odustajemo
/ neki drugi dan". To je dovoljno jasno i staje u jedan red :).
Važi i obratno: na računarskom mađarskom ima zgodnih kratkih izraza koji
zahtevaju vratolomiju od prevodioca.

What is EFH?
"Electronic Frontiers Houston" (EFH) is a non-profit corporation devoted to
working with and for the Houston computer and telecommunications community.
Working in alliance with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, EFF-Austin and
other national and regional organizations, EFH acts as a focal point for the
diverse set of individuals who find themselves involved in computer
communications.
Included on the EFH's agenda are: advocating civil liberty issues in
"cyberspace," promoting wider public access to computer networks, exploring
artistic and social implications of new digital media, and educating the public
about the increasingly important on-line world.
Wanna Help?
Although there are many ways you can get involved in the 1994 EFH Sysop
Liability Workshop (contact ecavazos@blkbox.com for more info), the easiest and
most helpful contribution is to help propogate this message throughout
cyberspace. Please repost it anywhere you think it might be appropriate.
EFH will handle the print media (newspapers, etc.), and is trying to coordinate
a campaign to get the word out on the net, but there is no way to cover it all.
We need all the help we can get. If everyone would take a moment to buffer
this text and mail it to a friend, sysop, or sysadmin, post it on a BBS, or
print it onto a flyer to distribute at school or work, we can hope to reach as
many people as possible about what we think is going to be a very beneficial
public service.

Na excurziji u Atini kupih novu plocu grupe WestBam.
Radi se o rave muzici, pa sam zato odlucio da pisem
u ovoj temi... Naime, ;) na poledjini ploce je jedan
text na nemackom jeziku koji ja ne razumem, pa bih
zamolio nekoga ko zna nemacki jezik da prevede ovaj,
nadam se, zanimljiv text. Izvinjavam se na eventualnim
greskama, tesko se razlikuju slova a, e, i, l.
---------------------------------------------------------------
WestBam: Die ravende Gesellschaft
1994. Alles ist anders. Unten ist oben und oben ist uten.
Underground ist overground und overground ist underground.
Komemerziell ist unkommerziel und ukommerziel ist
kommerziell. Ein Umbruch hat begonnen. Wir befinden uns
auf dem Wag in die ravende Gesellschaft. Als 1989 ca.
150 Leute bel der ersten Love Parade über den Berliner
Ku'damm zogen, hätten wenige für maglich gehalten, daß
house und techno diesen Einfluß auf die Populärkultur
haben würden. Als wieder ein paar Jahre später bei Mayday
in Köln 1992 zum ersten mal in Deutchland über 10000 Raver
zusammenkamen, hielten viele das für das Ende der
Fahnenstange, das ender des "Trends" und nannten die
Verensteltung "im Grunde anachonistisch". Tatsächlich
ist der Einfluß der Rave-und Clubkultur seitdem immer
weiter gewachsen. House und techno nicht nur die ganze
Nacht, sondern auch den ganzen Tag, die ganze Woche und
überall:
Von den kleisten Clubs bis zu den größten Verranstaltungsoten,
von den indie labels bis zu den majors, in den Metropolen
genau wie in der Provinz, im Frontpage wie der Bild Zeitung,
im Supermarkt und in Morgenmagazin. Der Zeltpunkt ist
gekommen, an dem wir uns fragen müssen: Habben wir das
gewollt? Ole Antwort lautet: Ja.
Well für uns die Anfänge im underground auch immer der
Aufbruch in eine revolutionierte Populärkultur war, der Start
in die ravende Gesellschaft. Well wir von Anfang an auch
angtreten sind, um der überhalten Popkultur ihren Platz
streltig zu machen.
Nach unbeholfen und robotarhaft-eingeengt raagiert die, nach
rock'n'roll Schemata funtionierende Untehaltungsmaschine:
Die vertriabe wissen nicht, wie sie vertreiban sollen, die
Verestalter wissen nicht, wie sie verenstalten sollen, die
Plattenfirmen können "die Themen" nicht "handlen". Die Medien
berichten unzutreffend. Der Umbau der Unterhaltungsmaschine
im Sinne der ravenden Gesellschaft wird zu den wichtigen
Aufgaben der nächtan jahre gehören.
Verstört beobachten das Spektakel die Telle des historischen
house undergrounds in daren Verständnis house und techno
nicht der Beginn einer neuen Ara und der ravenden Gesellschaft
sind. Diese Fraktion verstaht underground als eine Art
Ausstelgerinsel, die es vor dem Zugriff der Öffentlichkelt zu
bewahren gilt. Wonach die Populärkultur schnappt, läßt dieser
Untergrund sofort erschrocken fallen. Ein großer Teil des
krativen Potentials fließt demansprechend in die Versterckabelt,
in das Erdenken von Ausweichtechniken und das Erfinden von
möglichst Sinnlosem, gesellschaflich Unvereinnehmbarem. Hierzu
ist zu sagen:
Jede musikalische Neuerung kommt aus einer, wie auch immer
gearteten, Untegrundkultur, jeder lebendige Musikstil braucht
diese Untergrundkultur, um sich zu erneuern. Aber um die
Errichtung eines Untergrundreservates kann as nicht gehen.
Welche Revolution will schon ins Reservat?

Neee, baš je u tome stvar, što je živi fliper upravo mašina koja drma,
lupa, zvoni, prenosi ti vibracije kroz ruke noge i kukove, ljulja ti
odsjaj neona u pivu, i zahteva od tebe itekakvu interakciju i neprekidnu
svest o tome gde si spustio cigaru. Imaš doživljaj.
Osim ako ti Tristan ne drma tastaturu.

He, a jeste razmišljali da uputimo Microsoftu jednu peticiju -
protesno pismo (e-mailom, naravno), i da tražimo da konačno promene tu
glupost (recimo u Win '95) :)
Ili, još bolje, da svako pošalje jedno:

How to Leave the Planet:
1. Phone NASA. Their phone number is (731) 483-3111. Explain that it's very
important that you get away as soon as possible.
2. If they do not cooperate, phone any friend you may have in the White
House - (202) 456-1414 - to have a word on your behalf with the guys at NASA.
3. If you don't have any friends at the White House, phone the Kremlin (ask
the overseas operator for 0107-095-295-9051). They don't have any friends
there either (at least, none to speak of), but they seem to have a little
influence, so you may as well try.
4. If that also fails, phone the Pope for guidance. His telephone number is
011-39-6-6982, and I gather his switchboard is infallible.
5. If all these attempts fail, flag down a passing flying saucer and
explain that it's vitally important you get away before your phone bill
arrives.

Ne vredi. U PC Magazinu kažu da Bili ima 'bozo filter' na e-mailu koji pušta

Ajde reci mi na srpskom šta si pričao u vezi NASA-e.
Strašno me zanima.

P.S. Da li neko zna koju škoku ili šta treba završiti
da bi radili u NASA-i.
