No Maps for These Territories
2000 · 89 MIN · IMDB 6.9 · 378 VOTES · DIR. Mark Neale
Overview
On an overcast morning in 1999, William Gibson, father of cyberpunk and author of the cult-classic novel Neuromancer, stepped into a limousine and set off on a road trip around North America. The limo was rigged with digital cameras, a computer, a television, a stereo, and a cell phone. Generated entirely by this four-wheeled media machine, No Maps for These Territories is both an account of Gibson’s life and work and a commentary on the world outside the car windows. Here, the man who coined the word "cyberspace" offers a unique perspective on Western culture at the edge of the new millennium, and in the throes of convulsive, tech-driven change.

00:45:21 at some point when I was twelve, or thirteen, or fourteen years old
00:48:12 I don’t understand… how do fiction writers do this?”

00:54:15 with something else that would be a… a signifier of technological change
