“I don’t know everything anymore… I don’t know anything”

“Like it or not everything is changing. The result will be the most wonderful experience in the history of man, or the most horrible enslavement that you can imagine. Be active or abdicate - the future is in your hands” - William Cooper 1989.

It’s 2034 and the world as it was, is long gone. The internet as we know it is a distant memory. It is fifteen years since The Grid came into existence. The human race is consumed by technology, everything is instant, a shared infinite knowledge.

Everyone has access to The Grid all day, all night, all of the time. What happens when The Grid begins to malfunction?

A futuristic tale of humanity and our willingness to share ourselves with the thing that is the internet.
