Computing Virtual Reality:


"A square of cyberspace directly in front of him flipped
sickeningly and he found himself in a pale blue graphic that
seemed to represent a very spacious apartment, low shapes of
furniture sketched in hair-fine lines of blue neon.  A woman
stood in front of him, a sort of glowing cartoon squiggle of a
woman, the face a brown smudge. 
   '...What is this? I mean, if you could sort of explain...'  He
still couldn't move.  The 'window' showed a blue-gray video view
of palm trees and old buildings. 
   'How do you mean?' ...
   'This sort of drawing.  And you.  And that old picture...'
   'Hey, man, I paid a designer an arm and a leg to punch this up
for me.  This is my space, my construct.  This is L.A., boy. 
People here don't do anything without jacking.  This is where I
entertain.' "  (Gibson, 1987)
