He seems so normal and articulate at 1.5 playback speed.
OMG YOU'RE RIGHT!! SO MUCH BETTER! :)
He needs an upgrade
1.1 for me :D
Poor Bill! 😟
She's definitely fan-girling like crazy, but does a GREAT job of facilitating an erudite interview. Love William and always love to hear him talk about his process. Thanks for the video
I love that Gibson is an honest-to-God *writer*, who seems to take the journey along with his characters as he writes them.
i think WG is on a permanent high... love all his work.
One of my favorite interviews with William Gibson! Thanks for posting the whole thing! ;-)
I always remember Cory Doctorow's quote about the most clear cut distinction between cyberpunk and post-cyberpunk writers,- being that the first ones speak slowly and the latter ones fast, when I crank up the youtube video player speed up to 2.0 when I listen to Gibson. )
Amazing, this man changed my perception on life.
This is such a great interview. Thanks! 🙏🏻
This was an excellent interview! Thanks for posting...
The corporations saved us from nuclear war because there wasn't any profit in it -- best quote ever!
Awesome interview, thanks!
Hooray!
Ah, I see why you had the edits. He's not shy about ripping on other authors. Great interview. Want to know what he is reading now.
Alternate history is my first 2 3D action game/movie projects. Ron1n and REACTION. Both games set in a same alternative World, but in different time
liking that watch
From what he read at the NY public library, his new novel sounds like a return to a Neuromancer-esque future. I didn't like Pattern Recognition's trilogy when I originally read it; I've since decided it's a lot better. He began writing it before 9/11, and ultimately it became a story about rearranging what he thought about post-9/11 America. Not for everyone, especially if you wanted distant SF, but as a comment on culture, which Neuromancer was as well, it's great.
Good interviewer.
I feel like he is the uncle I never got to meet who met me having found out about the other uncle who actually wasn't my uncle by law or otherwise.......like a bully isn't a kid anymore. 🌠
I'd love to see Gibson make a cameo on The Big Bang Theory. I imagine him skewering one of the characters' notions of him as some "cyberspace guru" with a pointed joke grounded in reality. But I fear that Gibson is not populist enough for TBBT, so I can, at least, dream.
William Gibson made a cameo in the under appreciated 1993 miniseries Wild Palms. This existing cameo is 100% more appropriate than showing up in the Big Bang theory (in my opinion, etc)
for you..
i just found this legend, am i wrong in thinking he has lost it to some degree?
Once a genius, always a genius.
I should probably not watch this interview because for me when I watch interviews with authors it kinda ruins the books and paints it with their voice and opinions. I prefer my writers as bodiless ghosts that whispered the stories from some other universe unto a page.
But I can't help myself. Last time I watched a Gibson video the guy was talking about not even remembering the plot of count zero, which is completely understandable since he's long moved on and it's been 40 years almost. But also still disappointing because you expect a writer to know their own story better than anyone else. But in reality, the people who obsess about the lore are far more knowledgeable than the writers themselves. That's why GRRM has two people that are massive fans and obsessed with his lore that help him keep track of everything. Because he doesn't remember many of the things he wrote himself. Writers forget like everyone else does, but it's still disappointing though it's unreasonable to be disappointed.
Wow, I would have thought William Gibson was cut.
Cut as a cutlip!
I need to ask why only ONE of his books were turned into a movie? It is a mystery, especially when u realize that nearly ALL movies today are based on rubbish...
William Gibson, my favorite ecstasy-like sleeping pill.
attractive too!
One of the last great prophets of Scifi
That's why you stop reading Gibson after Idoru and pick up some Greg Bear books...he definitely has the future mojo going.
dude, smoke a phat bowl!!!
He has a lovely voice. It's not like the way he writes (or at least, used to write). It's quite long, soft and sing-song as opposed to his brutal, quick-fire, fast-paced writing.
What he's SAYING, on the other hand...ehhhhh...
Is he on drugs? He seems high as hell.
I've read your comment before Gibson started to speak, and so I LOL'd. I doubt he's stoned, though. But I don't blame him; he'd probably taken enough drugs in the late 60's to last a lifetime. :)
Hes high on creativity! :)

^^^That dude was correct down in the comments.
Boring interview, nothing new revealing or interesting. Just go read his books.
