Written by the critically acclaimed Chris Goode, Infinite Lives is an erotic, numerical and technological journey into a world which is increasingly using the virtual to define itself.
So you fall to your death.
But you don’t die.
You just come back to life and you’re falling.
You’re falling and dying and coming back to life and falling.
And you’ll never die.
You have infinite lives.
John’s cat died a year ago. Now he’s quit his job and is trying, somewhat unsuccessfully, to write his new gay science fiction novel. He’s also become obsessed with an internet chatroom model. Called Carlos. He thinks. As the bitstreams of data fly past and reality becomes ever harder to define, John is forced to question how much he is still in control of his own life.
Chris Goode is the award winning writer of shows including The Adventures of Wound Man and Shirley, Hippo World Guest Book and Monkey Bars. Like much of Goode’s work, Infinite Lives is hauntingly poetic; it explores what it means to be lonely in an age when we have more means to connect with each other than ever before.
