Pepe Rojo
Author · 5 books

Pepe Rojo, quien define su obra como “realismo mediático mash-up”, pertenece a una generación de escritores que han encontrado en la ciencia ficción un repertorio de posibilidades para explorar diferentes niveles de la realidad. Ganador del Premio Kalpa 1996. Rojo obtuvo el premio kalpa en 1996, uno de los concursos más importantes de la ciencia ficción mexicana, por un cuento de corte cyberpunk: estos escritores se caracterizan por una extrapolación a muy corto plazo y sus referencias a la cultura de los noventa. Razones que los enmarcaron de inmediato como grupo dentro de la ciencia ficción. Actualmente, Pepe Rojo es catedrático de la Escuela de Humanidades, imparte las materias Nuevas Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación e Introducción al cine; y en sus tiempos libres es padre de familia
