HyperModern fiction is a style of writing that was first introduced by Japanese cyberpunk author Kenji Siratori. It began with his first novel
Blood Electric and then from there, he created a slew of cyberpunk novels in the HyperModern fiction style.
Many years later and strongly influenced by Kenji Siratori'
s workes as well as Hunter S. Thompson's, American writer Eugene-John began writing in this cyberpunk, HyperModern fiction style, but with a more coherent approach. Eugene-John managed to keep it hyper,
random, kinetic, spastic but with a Gonzo approach to it. At times he writes about cyberpunk themes, but a large body of his
work is grounded in modern themes and situations. HyperModern fiction is a style that combines Gonzo writing and Stream of consciousness. It's a fast paced, "in your face," very
random, very informative style of writing, but with a common theme running thoughout the story.
It is suggested that the
best way to truly enjoy HyperModern fiction is with the use of frantic, raw, energetic rock n' roll and/or industrial
music. And for those daring enough, a toke of your favorite
green leafy substance or countless swills of your favorite nectar.
