Cyberspace?
Within the past few years, the notion of cyberspace (as something to work towards) has been replaced with the concept of ubiquitous and pervasive computing. Technologists are less interested in an abstract representation and access strata of data, than giving the world in which we live a complex [secondary] layer of bytes and electrons. Ubiquitous computing entails a multitude of pervasive electronic devices in the natural human environment.
Malcolm McCullough loves architecture [or at least he did during the composition of Digital Ground]. The quest for truly location-aware devices is running into all sorts of issues [some contrived -- GPS???].
