Suitable sf&f references required

[anthanum]

I need to reference some utopian and dystopian speculative fiction dealing with issues of identity, humanity, cyborging and so on. I'd like to limit them to cyber-punk type sub-genre, but anything which deals with man-machine interface and notions of what it means to be human is good. Perfect would be anything that deals with all that AND sport

Stanislaw Lem - The Futurological Congress

that is my first suggestion, in fact everyone should read it... bloody good book.

I am not at home... but when I get there I will look for more titles and post again.

I was going to put this as a reply to your comment on my LJ but there was some tech problem and it wouldn't let me.

Well just to start you off I've got all the links I found interesting for my ethnography listed here: http://del.icio.us/Maenad_au
and the best link would be What is Ethnography for you.

I've not heard of autoethnography before though. What is that?

I can fwd you the list of weekly readings from our course guide. It was comprehensive.

btw whatever happened to that stroller?

I wonder if Cybersociology Magazine would be of any use to you.
