Too bad this New Media Edge interview with William Gibson from 2007 requires a subscription to view the complete article [thanks to Publishing Talk for the link]:

NMA: You’ve been quoted as saying, “The future is already here. It’s just not very evenly distributed.” What current technological cultures currently interest you most and why?

Mediating previously was like building nuclear weapons: It’s very expensive and you’re not going to be doing it in your bedroom. Home-built media personae may not be very powerful yet, but they will be.
