Urban Exploration

Like hiking, but in other people's buildings. Most urban adventures take place in derelict buildings, but also includes any location you can access without forcing entry.

Remember a joint and a camera to celebrate reaching the summit of your local really tall building.

Probably started by students living in halls in really big old universities who liked to explore all the tunnels and hatchs. Has even been featured on shows like Buffy and X-Files, firmly locating it in the "not cool, but fun" section of modern culture.

When urban exploring you should carry ID and consider if you have any suspicious articles on you, even a penknife can constitute a weapon if you manage to really make a dick out of yourself.

Pixies

One of Nirvana's quoted influences, having a similar self destructive, downbeat feel that personifed the Grunge movement in the early 90s. The Pixies were a little more colorful and violent sounding than Nirvana and had a good female vocalist on some tracks.

The Pixies are Surfer Rock, but their style is from Psychedelic to Punk to New Wave

The song "Where is My Mind" at the end of Fightclub re-kindled some interest in their style.

Ghost in the Shell

Very stylish anime set in a future where the boundaries between the virtual and real worlds are blurred, and hence the concept of existence too.

In this world where bodies are interchangable you are generally considered a person if you have a "ghost line"; special code that cannot be artifically created.

The comic discussed different kinds of intelligence and had a fair amount of political commentary. The final appendix opened the very real idea that major Kusanagi, the lead role, must have died along time ago by being copied.

Heavily influenced by Bladerunner, the first ever Cyberpunk novel and arguably the first ever science fiction novel.

We are ghosts in shells.
