'81 18 by Karl Cool

PART ONE OF THE "DIMINISHED FUTURES" TRILOGY

In the far, far future of 1981 a Punk band hatches a scheme to overthrow corporate AI by plugging their lead singer's brain into the central mainframe. Things do not go as planned...

________________________________________________________

Inspirations include but are not limited to Phillip K. Dick, William Gibson as well as the late Harlan Ellison.

The primary musical inspiration was the DIY ethos and spontaneous spirit of 80's hardcore, but somehow it ended up sounding more like industrial.

This is spontaneous and perfectly imperfect. I hope you enjoy it.
