PRECOGNITION<br />
Ripe technologies are a pseudogovernmental<br />
organisation which<br />
appear to be trying to create a safer<br />
and fairer world with new implant<br />
technology. Negative thought and<br />
memories have been removed,<br />
people are given careers and<br />
relationships they ‘deserve’ based<br />
on an in-app Karma rating system.<br />
This world in which every citizen<br />
lives connected to Ripe’s system<br />
seems almost perfect, at least on the<br />
surface. But the digital utopia is not<br />
without its ghosts. Soon the reality<br />
with which the characters surround<br />
themselves starts to unravel, as the<br />
true nature of the world surfaces.<br />
Samantha, who secretly works for<br />
Ripe and manipulates memories,<br />
discovers her husband James<br />
beginning to experience visions of a<br />
woman he doesn’t recognise.<br />
Unable to correct James’ visions,<br />
Samantha puts her life on the line.<br />
Solid scifi story that shows what<br />
low-budgets can achieve.<br />
