Jeff NoonApparently, Noon is working on a script/ screenplay for a film entitled Divine Shadows with director Husein Alicajic. Although Noons' input is not known at this time, he has been credited on both imdb and mooviees.com with writing credits. However, the film is in currently labeled as being 'in production'. Husein Alicajic's webpage also lists this film as 'in production', and quotes the films production company as Wild Bear Films[1].
Noon is reported to be working on a short story entitled "That's What Jeff Said", though this is currently unconfirmed.
The idea for the film won the ZTudio What IF? Award for Best Un-Produced Screenplay in 2001. According to The Producers' and Directors' Guild of Victoria website, Husein secured an option deal whilst in New York.
However, as of early 2008, the films information has been removed from imdb.com. This would suggest that the film did not receive a green light, and pre-production stopped.

赛博朋克作者和作品 编辑本段回目录
Jeff Noon根据术语档案（Jargon File），吉布森对计算机和当今黑客文化认识不深，使他对计算机和黑客在将来的角色有着特别的推测，而这种看法对黑客们来说天真的令人愤怒，却又令他们感到非常刺激。
其他著名的赛博朋克作家包括布鲁斯·斯特令（Bruce Sterling）、鲁迪·鲁克（Rudy Rucker）、帕特·卡蒂甘（Pat Cadigan）、杰夫·努恩（Jeff Noon）以及尼尔·斯蒂芬森（Neal Stephenson）。值得一提的是斯蒂芬森，他被认为是后赛博朋克（postcyberpunk）的代表，尽管大多数人认为这个区分很没必要。
雷蒙德·钱德勒（Raymond Chandler）因他荒凉的笔触、愤世嫉俗的世界观和残断的文字，强烈地影响了此流派的作者。赛博朋克的世界是一个反乌托邦的、黑色电影（film noir）的绝望世界。菲利普·蒂克（Philip K. Dick）对此流派也有很大影响。他的作品主题包括社会荒颓、人工智能、偏执狂以及现实及某种虚拟现实间模糊的界限。
