John Neon is a media publication that explores the intersection of technology, culture, and imagination through a cyberpunk lens. We publish editorial journalism that blends analysis, commentary, and storytelling to examine how the future is already here.
This is a journal of observations, analysis, and projections. It serves as an ongoing examination of how our present mirrors cyberpunk architecture. We begin not in a distant dystopia but in this moment: smartphones illuminate faces in darkness, algorithmic feeds direct attention, and elegant technology operates beneath failing infrastructure.
The publication connects the aesthetics of cyberpunk media with today’s headlines, consumer behavior, and design culture. Whether examining algorithmic bias in entertainment or unpacking surveillance urbanism, we use cyberpunk as a framework for deciphering a world already threaded with neon circuitry.
While our primary focus is on the present, the dreams of the 80s and 90s remain unavoidable reference points and subjects of discussion. We wonder what it means to live in the futures that fiction once warned us about, and what it means to create within them. We follow the contours of tomorrow as it emerges, shimmering at the edges, embedded in routine, and disguised as progress.
John Neon is for readers who sense the edges fraying, who want to understand the mechanisms beneath the surface, and who recognize that the future is not waiting. It is already here, quietly entangled with the present.
