> By the way, does anybody want to make different designes of cyberpunk > t-shirts? Maybe we should tie-dye them, too! Tie-dye? How archaic! 60's revivals went out in the 80's! Holography, of course!

Cyberfashion? Tie Dye not fashionable? Holography is the new ticket? How about a combination -- simulate the polychrome of _Count_Zero_ ... Libby Gottlieb

Re: Tiedye is out - Well, who cares about what is in and what is out? I like to have the colours of the rainbow smeared onto my t-shirt. It is a statement and a celebration of freedom. Holography is cool, too. But it is gonna be tough to do on a tshirt. I wonder if anyone has a way to make your t-shirt glow in the dark. Like using flourescent materials.... And I guess we all agree that the last thing cyberfasion should be is that monotonous blue or gray stuff that people are sentenced to wear to work in th 80's... :-) DeadHead uucp: DeadHead@cup.portal.com || ..sun!aeras!grinch!iko-iko!bruce China cat sun flower is my name Terra is my nation Deep space my dwelling place Terrapin my destination

Cyberpunk fashions - how about dressing all in black - works especially well if you are tall - For some reason, large figures all in black seem to connote death or destruction. Genetic folk memory??

Re: Dress in solemn black - How about all black with just a touch of white? It looks solemn too but with a hint of elegance. DeadHead

I do not know what the exact process is, but what you end up with is a yellowish-green design by day, and a glowing design by night (or dark area). I have a sleeveless sweatshirt, black with the words 'RELAX' (aka Frankie Goes to Hollywood). Imagine my delight when wearing it for the first time one summer day, several friends and I walked into a movie theatre... The glow lasted almost the entire movie....much to *their* embarrasment! ;-) > > DeadHead jojo -- Joanne Brooks BITNET: BROOKSJ@UMDD.BITNET U of Maryland Computer Science Ctr Internet: brooksj@umd5.umd.edu Consulting Staff

Genetic folk memory?? Of course you do realize that all-in-black is just about the only way anybody *ever* dressed in _Neuromancer_ if they were male.

I'm not sure about the comment that _everyone_ male in _Neuromancer_ wore black. I would say some were, and those were probably stressed, but I imagine some of the jumpsuits were other colors.. maybe it just wasn't noted... But for me, I think the most 'cyber-ist' fashion was the mirrorted contact lenses that someone here posted about. Now _that_ would be cyberpunk. _____________ / --/ __ _______ (_/ (_) / / / <_ Livingston { decuac,ihnp4 }!netsys!tsl
