Cyber (subculture)

Cyber (also 'cyber culture' or 'cyberculture') is the name given to a subculture that has grown from multiple roots; some among it have branched off from the goth and rivethead subcultures, while others are more recognisable as an offshoot from the rave and clubbing scenes. Someone who identifies with the Cyber subculture can be referred to as a Cyber, although the term Cybergoth is used to refer to the goth influenced end of the movement, i.e., those who would attend clubs such as Slimelight, and Cyberkid to refer to those who attend more mainstream dance music clubs such as Gatecrasher. While fashion and an interest in electronic dance music are two areas that define the cyber subculture, Cybers also tend to have a general interest in new and future technology, its influence on society, and other such cyberculture topics. The subculture enjoys niche status and a relatively small (but growing) following.
