Used in conversation with the web designer working on the GW site, while brainstorming some themes:
“Retro-cyberpunky”
It’s funny, when you don’t have a word that describes exactly what you want, you sort of just cobble them together from existing words. Because I think what I meant was, you know, steampunk without the steam, but with a little cyber, only organic-cyber.. er, organic punk? er….
Ok, let’s be honest. What I meant was:
Bugpunk.
Which is a subgenre of the New Weird.
Trust me.
