William Gibson's Neuromancer Staged With Porn Star
destinyland writes "Sunday night saw a reading of the William Gibson's classic cyberpunk novel featuring porn star Sasha Grey at a New York art museum, along with sculpture-props simulating virtual reality. Artist Brody Condon promised to combine 'Gibson's 1980s dystopian techno-fetishism with early twentieth-century abstraction,' but the editor of H+ magazine challenges that description. 'In a 1993 interview, Gibson himself told me: "I think my world looks dystopian if you're a middle class white guy doing reasonably well in 1993... There are so many places in the world today that are so much crappier than anything I'm writing about."' And earlier this month William Gibson shared his response to a blog post about the event. 'Gol' dang! It's news to me!'"

You get the sense that someone doesn't quite grasp the basic concepts.
But the world looks utopian if you're a middle class white guy doing Sasha Grey.
Sasha Grey plays a vitol role in some of the documentaries that we so love to watch in our cellars - that is why.
I was at the reading yesterday as part of my sojourns around Performa 09. No one else recognized her (that I could tell) in the audience, but it was a durational piece and I was only there a half hour. I was almost positive it was her, but she had these huge sunglasses on and I couldn't be sure...and it didn't seem like a good question to just ask a random chick at a performance piece while I was there with my gf...

Every "second tier porn skank" was "at one point pegged to be the next Jenna Jameson."
All this talk of chocolate and vanilla ice cream in response to an article about Sasha Grey makes my id go wild...

Sasha Grey
I've staged War of the Worlds in my living room with my cats as the aliens, but it didn't make it onto Slashdot.

It's a redundancy, like "sweet sugar".

Every "second tier porn skank" was - at multiple points - pegged, repeatedly.
How about if you are a middle class "black" guy doing reasonably well in 1993?
