L'actu de Neal Stephenson
Neal Stephenson parle de son actualité dans cette interview. Il revient notamment sur le projet de jeu Clang.
Extrait :
C – Speaking of the Internet, you very directly connected on Kickstarter for CLANG recently, and broke your budget very swiftly to fund the development of motion control for a realistic, immersive swordfighting fantasy game.
Neal Stephenson – No, just barely, and just in time. It was a nailbiter. We didn’t know. Forty eight hours before the deadline it seemed very much a touch and go thing, and with about a day to spare we hit our target. We’ve been working with, another Edinburgh connection, this fellow named Guy Windsor who runs a sword school in Helsinki now, but he lived in Edinburgh for many years. He appeared in one of those videos. So yeah, that was interesting, that was a never to be forgotten experience, it was another go for broke moment, and we made it, and so now we’re just trying to organise the project so that the people who donated won’t be disappointed.
GC – What is next for Neal Stephenson?
Neal Stephenson– I’ve been trying to arrange things so that other projects like CLANG can be delegated to people who know what they’re doing, and that seems to be slowly succeeding, and so I’m hoping that at some point in the autumn, when it starts raining in Seattle again, I can go into my little workspace and start work on the next book. I’m not really saying what that is yet, but I’m just starting it, so it won’t be out for a couple of years, probably. Pretty vague answer, but the bottom line is I’m going to write another novel.

Je pense qu'il a voulu écrire "esperar" (traduction en castillan de "Attendre").Lensman a écrit :S'il fallait des raisons ou des autorisations pour espérer, ce serait nouveau !!! Bien sûr, que l'on peut espérer !!!

Ah ? Evidemment, dans ce cas, c'est autre chose...bormandg a écrit :Je pense qu'il a voulu écrire "esperar" (traduction en castillan de "Attendre").Lensman a écrit :S'il fallait des raisons ou des autorisations pour espérer, ce serait nouveau !!! Bien sûr, que l'on peut espérer !!!
