Burroughsian. Suckle on the glass teat and get drunk on visions in the refraction of its light.

So glad he's back, noon's ideas are so imaginative they will touch everything you see evermore. I read this really quickly and have read a lot since but the imagery and idea of this are so original and meaningful and relevant they cut through everything else. Not a huge fan of the poetry moments as sometimes they communicate little to me and fill in where action or plot would sit in a traditional book.

5.0

A strange and subtle prose-poem about shattered attention spans, hypermediation, and the most likely form in which any actual transhumanism might take. May produce sensations of tickling. Watch your abdomens, and remember that we don't need anything so clumsily obvious as videotape slots anymore.

Pretentious drivel. Very disappointing. The movie Videodrome still owns this territory; this book contributes nothing.
