Once they are plunged more deeply into the realms of this new, experimental technology, they suddenly find themselves faced with horrific, physical side effects as they rapidly begin to realize exactly what their participation in this enchanting, alluring, fantasy recreational facility has actually induced and the very deadly price that they may now really have to actually pay which certainly wasn't mentioned along with the sign up fees. A deadly race against time is then invoked as they attempt to save their own lives and protect each other from the deadly ramifications of their participation in Recreation and the deadly technology which is now actually attempting to devour their very real, physical bodies.There is always a price to pay for progress....The Glitches Series explores the possible facilitation of technology and things that can potentially go wrong when technology behaves in unexpected manner due to Glitches, it also includes an underlying exploration of how human beings control and interact with that technology when 'the end justifies the means' approach is applied to technological developments and their implementation and examines how that can result in both negative and positive outcomes.
