Gibson takes up the Gnostic theme of rejection of the body.
Case âsize of openings in rich databasesâ, so it is a hacker. Punished, he sees his nervous system damaged by a Russian myxotonine, and it is âFall. In the bars he frequented at the time of his glory, the elitist attitude demanded a certain contempt for the flesh. The body was meat. Case had fallen into the prison of his own flesh. â
Gibson popularized cyberspace. The hero Case, a cowboy, had âprojected his disembodied consciousness into the consensual hallucination that was the womb.â The expression âconsensual hallucinationâ evokes the conditioned universes of Philip K. Dick, it mainly evokes the network of networks, parameterized to make us live a second and better life. âThe matrix has its origins in video games.â
Explains Gibson, âfrom the very first holographic programs and military experiments ⦠a two-dimensional space warfare vanishes behind a fern forest generated in a mathematical way, demonstrating the spatial possibilities of logarithmic spirals ⦠cyberspace is a graphical representation Extracted from the memories of all the computers of the human system ⦠traits of light arranged in the non-space of the mind. â
This algorithmic and non-spatial universe is dominated by Moderns, âa contemporary version of the great scientists of the age of twenty ⦠mercenaries, funny, nihilistic techno-fetishists.â Gibson makes us understand from whom these Moderns are the heirs: âFor thousands of years men have dreamed of pacts with demons.»
