After Impact follows the story of Reagan Esther Myer, one of the survivors of a mysterious apocalyptic event called Impact. Shortly after joining the pilot program for ThotBot, a brain implant that erases "harmful" memories and dulls emotions, she begins her life living in an abandoned shopping mall and producing survivalist tutorials for a crumbling world. Shortly after arriving at her new post, she finds a cassette tape detailing her very own journey from the day of Impact -- June 21, 1995 -- up until the day she joins The ULTRA. This dystopian audio drama is one of four multi-platform "Episodes" that tell the story of Reagan Esther Myer and the ThotBot Storyworld. In addition to this tale, there are also three performance-based Episodes: an interactive installation, a multimedia musical, and an immersive theater show. Whereas each Episode stands alone narratively, together they weave a sprawling story across a mid-90s timeline. Visit getthotbot.com for more on the other Episodes (and to attend if you find yourself in the Boston area).

On this week’s Glitch Tape, we time travel (my favorite thing) to July 1995, exactly 30 years ago, with an issue of LIFE. This is the absolute dawn of the Information Superhighway and even the personal computer as a Thing. I mean, now it’s in our pocket, but at one time, the entire concept of the “Net” had to be explained. We discover how Apple pitched the idea via a TWO PAGE advertisement -- three columns of text on EACH PAGE. The...
In this week’s Glitch Tape, I utilize three distinct British accents to bring to life a short story about a man, his kid, and a “rum” shopkeep/conjurer in H.G. Wells’ short story, The Magic Shop. That’s GENUINE magic, of course. Anytime I can put on a wild cockney accent, I’m going to do it. This is the last Glitch Tape for now as I pivot my time and energy to producing Season 2 of After Impact and selling tickets/promoting another...
