Altered Carbon — Futuristic Detective “noir” , with Bladerunner Bleakness

As you know I have been on a reading binge (Here, Here and Here), usually finishing 2–3 books a week ! Focussing mostly on Sci-Fi and mystery. Discovered Richard K.Morgan !

Very interesting, and as an amazon reviewer says “The whole system and the workings of society are very well thought out”

Turns out it is also a Netflix series !

Lots of interesting ideas — I like the hotel Hendrix fully run by an AI. You have to read the book to appreciate the concepts !

And see here for his interesting Quell quotes from “Things I Should Have Learned by Now” by Quellcrist Falconer

Talking about BladeRunner, can you guess if all the pictures below are from the movie BladeRunner 2049 ?

Of course, if all pictures were from the movie, there is no mystery ! Actually only the right two are from the movie, the left three are from San Francisco area two days ago, on 9/9/20.

In San Jose, where I live, we had the Dystopian Orange sky — dimly glowed in a pumpkin orange color you’d expect to see on Mars. The whole day ! It was an eerie day … to say the least …

As the author says,

May the road always rise to meet you ! … May the wind be always at your back !
