cyberpunk cyber punk

Cyberpunk is a postmodern science fiction genre noted for its focus on "high tech
and low life." It features advanced science, such as information technology
and cybernetics, coupled with a degree of breakdown or radical change in the
social order.

Cyberpunk plots often center on a conflict among hackers, artificial intelligences,
and megacorporations, and tend to be set in a near-future Earth, rather than the
far-future settings or galactic vistas found in novels such as Isaac Asimov's
Foundation or Frank Herbert's Dune. The settings are usually post-industrial
dystopias but tend to be marked by extraordinary cultural ferment and the use of
technology in ways never anticipated by its creators ("the street finds its own uses
for things"). Much of the genre's atmosphere echoes film noir, and written
works in the genre often use techniques from detective fiction.
