Douglas Coupland OC OBC RCA (born 30 December 1961) is a Canadian novelist, designer, and visual artist.

He has published 13 novels, two collections of short stories, non-fiction books, and a dramatic works and screenplays for film and television. He is a Financial Times columnist, as well as a frequent contributor to The New York Times and Vice. His art exhibits include Everywhere Is Anywhere Is Anything Is Everything, which was exhibited at the Vancouver Art Gallery, and the Royal Ontario Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, now the Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto Canada, and Bit Rot at Rotterdam's Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art.

He also released an updated version of City of Glass and the biography Extraordinary Canadians: Marshall McLuhan. Shampoo Planet is Douglas Coupland's second novel. It is a thematic followup to Coupland's first novel, Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture. The novel deals with Tyler Johnson, a Global Teen, who shares many characteristics of the character Tyler from Generation X, the younger brother of Andy, Generation X's narrator. The novel tells the story of Tyler's life as he arrives home from Europe, and the fallout of this trip and beyond. The novel is about the generation after the X generation. The primary character, Tyler, is a 'Global Teen', what was popularly labeled in the media as Generation Y. They are the children of the hippy generation, who 'react by loving corporations, and they don't mind wearing ties. To them, Ronald Reagan is emperor'. They exist in a globally connected world marked out by advertising and corporate power. They are optimistic when compared with their siblings in the X Generation. However, they do not have experience with leaders who show care for other people. 'I still remember Jimmy Carter. I still remember Pierre Trudeau. I still remember a time when society cared about other people. But there's nothing in these kids' databases to show that there are other options, that it wasn't always dog eat dog. Older people have to somehow convince young people that better things are possible.' Being released in the shadow of Generation X, Shampoo Planet is considered another Zeitgeist catching novel. Its depiction of the Global Teen generation is similar to the depiction of Generation X in the previous novel. However, the novel has retained its individual sense, and become a historical artifact of the times that brought about its creation. It has been referenced by the show Ergo Proxy, whose 21st episode was named after the book, and by the band Panic! at the Disco, in their songs "London Beckoned Songs About Money Written by Machines" and "I Write Sins Not Tragedies". The Japanese rock band Learners perform a song called "Shampoo Planet," written by Gakuji Matsuda. First Pocket Books Hardcover Printing [stated]. First printing [stated].

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ghost in the Brussels: Understanding European Cybersecurity through AnimeBy Antonio "AI" IeranoEurope once dreamed of regulating the Internet. Then Artificial Intelligence. Then - inevitably - humans.Ghost in the Brussels is a dazzling, satirical journey through the labyrinth of European digital law, where bureaucracy meets philosophy and anime meets compliance. With wit as sharp as a regulation's footnote, Antonio "AI" Ierano translates the dense world of EU directives into a philosophical saga told through the lens of iconic anime worlds - from Ghost in the Shell to Serial Experiments Lain, Ergo Proxy, and Patlabor.Each chapter reimagines a cornerstone of European regulation as a cyber-epic, where cyberpunk heroines, malfunctioning robots, and weary bureaucrats struggle over the same question: Can a system built to preserve humanity ever understand it?The book takes readers through the major regulatory odyssey of the European Union: NIS2 becomes a cyber-noir tale of networked consciousness and overzealous control;GDPR reemerges as a psychological drama of consent and identity;The AI Act transforms into a theological debate about machine morality;The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) explodes into a mecha war between firmware and accountability;DORA descends into the chaos of digital resilience and existential outages;eIDAS 2.0 and the Digital Wallet of Theseus ponder what remains of the self once every credential has been verified.Blending European politics, speculative fiction, and a biting sense of humour, Ghost in the Brussels turns the arcane into the absurdly relatable. Ierano's narrative voice oscillates between Oscar Wilde's irony and Masamune Shirow's futuristic melancholy, crafting a book that is both a critique and a love letter to the European dream of order through legislation.With its mix of satire, philosophy, and cyber-aesthetics, this work transcends genres - appealing to technologists, legal scholars, and anime fans alike. Whether you're a compliance officer surviving your twentieth risk assessment or an otaku wondering how Brussels became the final boss of cyberspace, this book offers a mirror to our collective digital anxiety."Because, after all - the real high-risk system is us."The tone oscillates between humour and elegy: one moment you're laughing at a robot waving an AI Conformity Certificate, the next you're struck by the quiet tragedy of a law trying to legislate consciousness. Every page brims with Easter eggs for those who live between the technical and the philosophical - engineers, lawyers, artists, dreamers - those who know that "data subject rights" sound suspiciously like "character arcs."In Ghost in the Brussels, Antonio "AI" Ierano achieves what few dare attempt: transforming European regulatory frameworks into an act of storytelling. The result is a strange, beautiful hybrid - half cyber-comedy, half bureaucratic odyssey - where compliance becomes poetry and irony becomes survival.Perfect for readers of speculative nonfiction, cybersecurity satire, or anyone fascinated by how humanity endlessly rewrites its own code, this book will make you question whether the real singularity has already happened - not in machines, but in policy.
