A decade before the global internet even existed, William Gibson coined the term "cyberspace". He was describing a realm of pure information in his 1983 novel Neuromancer. The story unfolds in a future where data flows form the arteries of an interconnected world.
It’s one of many inventions that appeared in novels and films years before they materialised in reality, along with spaceships, Artificial Intelligence, and even credit cards.
This week, we’re bringing you stories about the cutting-edge innovations of today that are straight out of the science fiction of yesteryear.
It’s the fourth episode of Sci-Fi, a series envisioning alternative futures and imaginary realms. These stories were produced for the Science Gallery’s new exhibition — Sci-Fi: Mythologies Transformed, which is open now.
Featuring stories by Anna Lau, Zaid Dia, Aditi Borooah Thekedath, and Nicholas Quinlan.
