This engaging text presents a deep dive into the mind of William Gibson, the acclaimed science fiction author known for pioneering the cyberpunk genre.

as well as his reflections on science fiction and technology’s role in society. Throughout the interview, Gibson discusses his creative process, his relationship with the film industry, and the notable influence of his storytelling on popular culture and technology. He shares insights on the making of "Johnny Mnemonic," delving into the challenges and triumphs involved, including the casting of Keanu Reeves.
