"High tech, low life."
"The street finds its own uses for things."
We all know the quotes and the books. But cyberpunk is more than a neon-soaked, cybernetic aesthetic, or a gritty dystopian science fiction genre. It is a subculture composed of two fundamental ideas: PUNK, and CYBER.
The PUNK: antiauthoritarian, anticapitalist, radical freedom of expression, rejection of tradition, a DIY ethic.
The CYBER: all that, but high-fuckin'-tech, ya feel? From DIYing body mods to using bleeding edge software to subvert corporate interests. It's punk for the 22nd century.
This is a community dedicated to discussing anything cyberpunk, be it books, movies, or other art that falls into the genre, or real life tech, projects, stories, ideas or anything else that adheres to these ideals. It's a place for 'punks from all over the federated Net to hang out and swap stories and meaningful content (not just pictures of city nightscapes).
Welcome in, choom.

I have a whole wish list of radio waves I want to inspect using my HackRF SDR.
Most recently I've been trying listen to the subway radio communications while riding. So far not much luck as I'm still learning GNU Radio and SDR in general.
The first project that got me into SDR was my interest in how KPop concert light sticks (similar to LED wrist bands at Taylor Swift concerts, except KPop light sticks use ZWave not IR painting) communicate and sync up to songs. Still haven't gotten to this project yet. Maybe once I learn more I can try again.
Oh man, let us know how that project goes. Have you done much transmit with the SDR, any tips/tricks for someone looking to expand from RLT-SDR into HackRF?
Hopefully I'll have some progress posts in the future! My only transmit project is the KPop one but I am not anywhere close to that. I do have thoughts about transmitting in other environments but am not sure super about the legal aspect of that.
