Well, The following dialouge is from a bbs that ran in Sheboygan
during the summer of 1993 called Freak Scene. I'm not sure of
it's were about's as of now. Rumor has it that it's being run
in Madison. Oh well, enjoy this stuff. There's alot to be
learned from it.

I have already seen quite a few posts that belong on this base...
So let's get down to business.
I want to hear what YOU think about
=-> Is there a cyberpunk movement? If so, what is it? What is
important about
it and what drives it?
=-> Have you read Neuromancer? Are you impressed or not?
=-> Does anyone outside the net HAVE A CLUE about the movement?
How many
people are reached? What is the extent of the movement as far
as society goes?
=-> Raves, Ecstasy, AI, h/p, techno music, and whatever else you
consider a
little bit Cyberpunk.
I would appreciate anyone who knows to give a definition of any
basic cyberpunk
terms, as even I get confused by the onslaught of new
terminology.
[PAUSE]
(I guess I should say for legal reasons that I find illegal
activity
despicable, like h/p and whatever. Just watch it, okay?)

can anyone tell me where I can get a copy of Neuromancer to read

Waldenbooks...) I so want to read it, but THE LIBRARY HAS IT NOT!

As well as I understand it, a rave is a gathering of cyberpunks
in some secret
place where we/they play industrial/techno music really loud and
dance and wear
funny clothes and blow whistles and wear masks (well, some of
them anyway).
Usually Raves are accompanied by drugs, typically ecstasy. (All
year in
Madison someone was running around chalking E's and e's all over
the school.
Later I heard it was a bunch of ecstasy freaks.) That's why
they are kind of
secretive about them sometimes.
I've never been to a rave. My loss, I guess. But maybe you
could give me,
[PAUSE] say, fifty cents for this attempted explanation.

6/38: Neuromancer
Name: Rapunzel #1
Date: Mon Jul 19 22:08:27 1993
I am about three-quarters of the way through Neuromancer. It is
a stunning and
excellent science fiction book, but I don't see what makes it so
special as to
have a huge influence on the Cyberpunk movement.
I do love the terminology! I want to refer to using the BBS net
as 'jacking
in' and my physical body as 'meat'.
What do Molly's sunglasses look like (other than mirrored?). I
imagined them
as wire rimmed, but then I saw them portrayed as something like
those classic
black cheap ones (like in Risky Business) but with mirrored
lenses.
Is Neuromancer a movie yet? Will it be one soon? I hope they
do a good job of
it if they do, or there will be hell to pay!
Boy is it hot.

I'm not gonna quote you cause I don't have the energy but How
can all of you
people sit around and discuss "CYBERPUNK" My advice to all of
you is if
you're interested in it, rely in something more than what Time
Magazine or
Connie Chung Tell's you.
Well, This base is a good start
Well, <===== I like that word. I go to raves, Have taken X,
Been to all
sorts of underground events, Partaken in underground activities,
have lived out
the media definition, have been busted for hacking, and have
done numerous
other things.
I don't consider myself a cyberpunk. That was a word defined
by idiots who
[PAUSE] really have no idea how the majority of the people
in the underground movement
feel.
CONSIDER YOURSELVe's lucky. You are part of the computer
literate society.
Well, here's some more info. You can classify our civilization
as in The
Information Age. People like those in Management information
systems hold the
knowledge. Pretty soon, Technology will be controlled by those
with the power
and wealth, it is happening already, information will be
restricted and the
majority of us will be and are already being manipulated.
I really hate ths shit, It only allows me 50 lines or so DShit

Well, As I speek an underground club event is going on tonight
in Milwaukee.
There is a Rave going on on the 31st of july I believe. Hmm...
SoundLAb is
going on On SAt.
[PAUSE] All of you who want to witness the underground at
a rave, it is probably too
late. The scene is sold out and lots of lame people go there.
Oh well, I still advise you get to one before they start haveing
them At the
Bradley Center being sponsored by the local church ")
For Rave info call drop basss network at 414.256.1733
It's ld for you all but it'll only cost like 30 cents for the
call

¯YOU've described the sold out version of raves.
Then what IS your definition of rave, you who obviously knows
what you are
talking about, self-declared non-cyberpunk, trying to stay on
the cutting edge
by putting down anything that has been around more than a week,
our
lily-livered waffling doctor? This question was asked quite
some time ago and
as you were not available with your omniscience some of us had
to feebly
attempt to SPREAD the INFORMATION about WHAT'S GOING ON.
What is not a sell out to you? You are a part of the ultimate
sell out!
Afraid to hold on to anything because the mainstream might
attempt to
assimilate it tomorrow! I am sick and tired of elitist
alternative types! You

NOTHING because that's what
you're all about!

You people are hopeless. Yes, Dr. Techno, you have a point.
The whole idea
of underground is secret, more or less, but there are those of
us who are in
that scene also, altho not as much as you say you are.
Rapunzel is right tho, you should try to be more natural,
you are to the
point of being a hypocrite. You see, being alternative is cool,
but now when
you try to be like all the other alternatives, get what I'm
saying?
Sure, I've never been busted for hacking, yes I've gone to
raves, yes I've
done the "X"(I like how you put that), but you don't have to go
brag about it
and try to put everyone else down. What you were mostly saying
is "Be like me,
Be like me, I am the picture perfect frame of the alternative
person"
Well, that don't cut it with me. I for one am who I am and
am damn proud
of it, your ideas and stuff like that don't bother me, I could
care less. More
or less man, your type really makes me puke.
[PAUSE]
We don't want to hear about your feats or anything so take
and shove where
the sun don't shine. Ok? Thanks.
Pissed off big time,

You probably live in a fairy tale world. Dreamin about raves
and Thinking your
a cool alternative freak. I don't know, but Allot of you
people have never
been in the real world.
Grow up, enter reality.
Do you have friends who've died from drugs??? Maybe
relatives???
How was highschool???? Did you ever get chased by gangs,
busted for hacking,
and almost get kicked out of school????

Wake up!!!
This world is fucked up.....
Some of us don't know where we'll be in a month. Shit, you're
going to college
right. I only have enough money for like 1 semester. My
parents were real
people, not corporate assholes who have lots of money, and
bought there little

Ever been out of WI?????? HUH????
Probably not....
[PAUSE] You're just another one of those Wisconsin
Hillbilly hicks who thinks theie

Shit, If only you could wake up. Open your eyes...
This isn't the land of the free and home of the brave. It's
quite the
opposite. Societys in fucking decay splintering into millions
of cultures.
Shit, we both may be white, but But we hold different ideals and

So what you say??? You hate me you say???
You don't know me.
You can't know me from what I post.
It makes me sick the way You PAss Judgement.
I posted those messages Partly to see how people would judge me.
[PAUSE] I repsect you for your comments, but How can we

Sorry, but unlike how you seem to portray yourself.. I don't
have a need to
fit in and be labeled with any group whether that be
'alternative' or not. I
dress how I want to dress.. not to wear the in or stylish thing.
I shave my
head because I want to.. not because it's cool to certain
people. I wear many
earrings.. because I want to. What the hell is wrong with just
bing yourself
these days. The way you live is not better than mine or the
other way around.

I know nobody likes being judgemental, but I don't feel like
sitting here being
abused on my own board. I did not put it up so that people
could bash me for
fun. Here is the post that started it. It was in response to
the only
definition of raves I had to give... which was admittedly
inadequate and a
bland post.

This is not a horrible post, but I think that this was
pretentious and overly
hostile. I don't see why I should sit here and enjoy it whenever
some user
thinks they can take out their hostility on me, this board, or
its users. I
think it ruins the atmosphere and that royally pisses me off.

BTW I think that the Dr. is so proud of being estranged that he
takes our
written beatings as compliment. If he cared he would have
indicated as such.

discussions that
really don't mean much at all. I really thank everybody for all
the discussion
that went on here. I've captured all of the posts and are using
them in a
research paper/informative paper I'm writing. I'll upload a
copy here when I'm
done with it if that's possible.
People have to realise that people are people. YOu can't judge
others By mere
statements on a bbs, by the way they dress, etc. I advise
eevrybody to show
more love to everybody else.
Our world is disappearing fast. Society is decaying in many
parts. People
just don't care about other people, and it was proven here.
Well, thats all for now, I'll let everybody think about that.
