I'm lost on a few things, I just finished the book 1) What was the JOB 2) Why did case take the Kuang software into the "dive", at the end 3) What is Tessier-Ashpool 4) Why did W/M and N/M merge, did they merge when Case "dove" using the Kuang software? 5) What was "the code", why did they need it, and what did 3Jane have to do with anything? What was 3Jane? |

those aspects of the story belong to william gibson, i'd say. unless it was an open-source novel. however, i usually consume cultural artifacts auteur-theoristically, and so, i'd prefer to know gibson's ideas than some fanboys'. |

i read this book very lazily over the course of several years... often picking up in the middle without going back and getting familiar with everything again.. and still i know all of these answers. your brain must be like a holed thing. no i can't give them to you right now but tomorrow maybe i can. here's one for now: tessier-ashpool is like a big family that's also a company, and it spans generations. its mostly all clones of an original family. they have their hands in a little bit of everything in the world; you'll see the logo everywhere. |
