Life at the edge of the singularity
Where the surreal is the new normal.
Nonlinear is a daytime series about ordinary life after the singularity. It starts in an office park in Silicon Valley, and then it keeps going: into kitchens, cul-de-sacs, dentists' waiting rooms, the bottom of the sea, and a few places that weren't there yesterday.
Each scene works like a single cartoon panel. There's one impossible picture, and everyone in it reacts like it's a Tuesday. Cows get product updates. Houseplants file grievances. Time moves sideways. Nobody raises their voice.
A herd of cows gathers around a fence post that just installed an update. One of them asks whether they're still cows. Nobody knows.
Coming soonA houseplant asks for a performance review. HR schedules it. The plant gets a better rating than the manager.
Coming soonTime starts moving at a slight angle. A family eats breakfast on the wall. Dad says it's fine as long as the toast lands butter-side up.
Coming soonA man calls customer support and reaches himself, three years in the future. The future him is also on hold.
Coming soonMade with DirectX. Every scene is written, cast and shot in software. There are no sets, though one scene has a couch.
