An eccentric man discovers an unlikely channel on his TV. Find his torn up diary pages to piece together the story. This is a immersive short story that is part of a larger narrative created by the artist Bryn Oh over the last decade. The whole story spans 120 years and most chapters reside in virtual worlds. Bryn is learning unreal engine in order to (slowly) bring the full narrative to a game platform. With special thanks to the Canada Council for the Arts for their generous support in helping to achieve this dream.
