systemjammers
« on: September 18, 2003, 02:18:08 AM »
I've recently finished a year 12 course of four unit english. Basically, the entire course revolves around the creation of a single text. In my case, it was a short story called "systemjammers". Is anyone interested in reading it? I can send it via e-mail dor anyone who wants it, along with the reflection statement, and precursor to it I wrote "system log".

Whats it about? :)

I dislike many genres. I'm picky.

I could throw it up on my Tripod server if I want, I'm just lazy.

systemjammers is a short story set in a near future cyberpunk setting. It deals with a group of geeks in a terrorist faction called "Cybernetic Redemption." The goal of this group is to bring thought to the common person, to stop them being sheep controlled by corporations and advertisements. It is an anti-capitalist exploration, and questions how far one should go for a cause one belives in.  So basically it's cyberpunk.

I've been told by most of my friends that it's very good. It took a year to create, and I'm happy with it. It's about 8000 words long.

When I get home, I'll upload it, and post the downlaod site.

Ok, I uploaded them.

For the major work, and reflection statement: http://swift48.tripod.com/jammers.doc

For systemlog, the precursor to it I wrote a year before: http://swift48.tripod.com/log.doc

They're both in word format because of the formatting. Check them out, or don't.

You will get feedback later. Like, after I've eaten my free pizza.

I want a free pizza, ya know. Cause I'm hungry. Speaking of food, I don't watch the food channel now that I'm not anywhere near home. Since I've cut back on my eating habits. I guess less eating does not equal less mass.

I get free pizza every friday and I always eat too much.
I especially like when we get cookies too.
But the pizza's nice, and if I'm careful, there will be some saved for my lunch on Saturday if I have to work as well.

Tripod is gay for so many reasons at so many times, it's hard to keep track of it.

Ack. Tripod like to be temperamental a lot. It's slightly better than geocities though, so I use it.  Try the right click and "Save as". If that doesn't work, tell me and I'll mail it.

SE, where did you get free pizza? More importantly, how do I get free pizza?

granted, it is better than geocities.

I get free pizza because my boss pays for it. It's yummy. You could get free pizza by coming to work for the Teaching Company. Besides the fact that my coworkers and I are sitting around whining about how stupid customers are, it's a great place to work.
