bacalou


from wikipedia's articles on the novel count zero and bacalou, respectively

quote:

...AI units now interface with humanity in the form of different Haitian voodoo gods, as they have found these images to be the best representations of themselves through which they can communicate with people. Hackers worldwide are becoming aware that there is something weird loose in the cyberspace matrix, but most are understandably reluctant to talk about (or deal with), "voodoo spooks" supposedly haunting cyberspace.

quote:

In Vodou, Bacalou is a feared loa, represented by a skull and crossbones.

no spirit named bacalou is in the book but it meshed well with my penchant for skulls
