Spoonfuls of legal med, skewers of bad cholesterol, brain-damaging unreal TV and measurable schooling are working their alchemy already. It has spread slowly and imperceptibly like oil rainbowing in a gutter. It looks pretty but it poisons the water. It's the most insidious example of life impersonating sci-fi art. So beware the Mesh.
The Mesh is the invisible plastic-wrapping, spidery filigree through which only bankrollers, inflated pigmen, and nightmare-makers can move. They are safe inside there, with their hand-shakes, winknods and glad-hand smiles. It is beyond the Mesh that they can compare and exchange their ill-gotten gains, swap their yachts, hoover up taxes and travel freely without contamination from the outside.
What is it like inside the Mesh? That is for us to find out. And it is an urgent cause, because soul-sucking is not against their law.
