Talk about ahead of his time. I see proto-social media, I see self-recording, interactive media, pretty neat.

Iām disappointed in bOING bOING. Iāve been an avid reader since the old Zine days and had to create an account just to say that this clearly doesnāt belong here.
This is obviously nothing more than the authorās flagrant attempt at self-advertising!
Good day sir!

Fascinating.
The Wikipedia article doesnāt specify, but Iād guess the output of Director would likely be called a movie.

āCyberpunkā was a great album. It came out when I was starting my digizine Chaos Control (at the time in Hypercard format). I emailed Bill Idol at the address included on the album, and he agreed to be interviewed. Iām pretty sure it was my first email interview. I tried sending him another batch of follow-up questions, but I was on AOL at the time and their mail went down for a week and all incoming messages (including his replies to that) got lost. He didnāt have time to re-answer.
The interview is still online at : http://www.chaoscontrol.com/billy-idol/

Through one of those six degrees of separation thing I kind of knew the singer for a while. We didnt get along really at all, he was dating a young woman who I knew from our college years and so there might have been some of that male jealousy thing and I suspected him of being a poseur anyway. Then again he got to do world tours as a musician and I didnt so maybe I was jealous too.
