A gripping mind warp in space-time and sound. The adventures of the Nervejump and its initially unsuspecting crew, who come to learn they&#39;ve been generated entirely for the experience of others. 24 episodes follow the unravelling of HARNESS&#39;s best laid plans, and the coming of age of the surviving crew members. The first season is set on board the Nervejump, with a few off-craft forays. The second season is entirely set on Bocklat, where we begin to learn more about the murky workings of HARNESS, the apparently benign governing system of the universe. Each episode features multiple voice actors, all recorded in Cork, Ireland, and entirely original scoring. A third season is currently in the works.

 `Don&#39;t worry about me. I&#39;m done for; I&#39;ve got no body&#39; --- Torrens.
 
Torrens has no body, he&#39;s done for, he&#39;s not to be worried about. But other concerns remain, embodied and undone. Because EarthFrank&#39;s been given a Skinthetic and a Nervejump Flowdose and he&#39;s about to Flow as himself...

Here you hear Lucie Ryan-Donnelly, Daithí O&#39;Donnell, John McCarthy, Ciaran Fitzpatrick, Niamh Kavanagh, Sara-Jane Power and Donnchadh O&#39;Conaill. Story, script and sounds by John McCarthy.

Yes, stories have a habit of concluding, and this one will. But not before you listen to this episode, and the one after, definitely not before then. Palos navigates the innards of the ReCast depot, on her way to the Thaw tunnel. Doom-Buggy gets dragged back into Driver mode on board his greatest enemy, and, in the Wayfarer station, wary and wearing, we meet the writers. Avert your ears and open your eyes; it&#39;s Episode XX: The Shuffle.

A gripping mind warp in space-time and sound

A gripping mind warp in space-time and sound. The adventures of the Nervejump and its initially unsuspecting crew, who come to learn they've been generated entirely for the experience of others. 24 episodes follow the unravelling of HARNESS's best laid plans, and the coming of age of the surviving crew members. The first season is set on board the Nervejump, with a few off-craft forays. The second season is entirely set on Bocklat, where we begin to learn more about the murky workings of HARNESS, the apparently benign governing system of the universe. Each episode features multiple voice actors, all recorded in Cork, Ireland, and entirely original scoring. A third season is currently in the works.
