Week 6: 14th – 21st October
This week is a little different to what we’ve been doing over the last month or so. We’re in the middle of our creative endeavour: This week, participants will use the basic elements of cyberpunk, as discussed over the last 5 weeks, as the basis for their own cyberpunk writings. However, we decided that a week is not nearly enough time to craft the cyberpunk masterpieces so we decided to extend the assignment (and the course) by another week, so people have 2 weeks to finish their original stories/comics/movies for the last week of the coursework.
However, we will be getting together this Wednesday (21st) at the usual time, partly becuase we all like each other so much that a week without a chat would just be an empty wasteland of neon light and dusky skies, and partly to use the time to bounce ideas off each other, get initial feedback on what people are working on and generally check in. Then the following Wednesday (28th) we’ll be discussing the final works.
