Beyond Cyberpunk: A Do-It-Yourself Guide to the Future" (1991) Five Floppy

Here is a link to an online version (greatly expanded upon the original):
www.streettech.com

Here is an excerpt from the preface:
"When we began Beyond Cyberpunk! (BCP), there was no such thing as the World
Wide Web. Hypermedia programs like Apple's HyperCard were the only way to
inexpensively deliver hypertext with linked sounds, images, and animation. We
saw in HyperCard the opportunity to create a compendium of all this
cybercultural output. We wanted to map the territory, but to do so in a way
that allowed the user to explore her own links and interests. We tried to cram
in as much material as we could, covering everthing from high-brow crit theory
to sci-fi lit and films to the wired worlds of hackers/crackers and the zine
publishing scene which was starting to move into cyberspace. The result was a
5.5 megabyte "connect-the-dots" cyber-manifesto. In 1993, we followed up the
first BCP stack with a one-disk update."

If you can't get it, there is a Beyond Cyberpunk Sampler on the SoftwareVAULT CD under Hypercard/Entertainment that could go here as second prize

Good luck! I tried to track down this hyperstack last year with no luck, including mail to the author that were never answered. Would be great to have it available on MG.

I'm working on it. The pics I posted are from a former owner on Low End Mac. I've got leads on two owners so I'm waiting for replies.
