**sorry this is late** [yellow]This months feature is Cyberpunk, the Papa of most of the little punks.
First, what is a punk exactly? Traditionally a punk is a misfit, a malcontent, someone who is a rebel and goes counter to the culture or status quo.
CYBERPUNK was the first of the genre punks. The phrase was coined by Bruce Bethke as the title of a short story he wrote in 1983. Cyber refers to cybernetics, the study of the structure of complex systems, especially communications systems. Yes, think the internet, the web, the matrix, your iphone.
