What is Hackers and Slackers: The New York New Media Underground in the Early 1990's about?
This book chronicles the rise, in the early 1990s, of what was then called "new media," and the New York City subculture that fought corporate blandness armed with artistic talent, hacking chops, and a punk sensibility. It's a snapshot of a formative time just before the explosion of the Internet and all things digital in our lives, and features virtual reality guru Jaron Lanier, alt-publisher Bob Stein, convicted hacker Phiber Optik, and more.
