Short Wave
Could 'Severance' Become Our Reality?

Right. What are some of the ethical considerations of things like neurotechnology?

Short Wave
Could 'Severance' Become Our Reality?

Yeah, I mean, I feel like the episode focused on Mark's wife Gemma this season in episode seven really gets into the potential for abuse. So maybe we can talk a little bit more about that and how you think the show deals with it.

Yeah, I mean, Vijay, let's talk about that more. I feel like throughout the show, characters have these moments where fragments of trauma break across the severed barrier of their brains, if you want to call it that. You can see it through Gemma's experiences in all those different rooms or even with Irving's drawings.

Wow. Yeah. So one of the big fan theories right now is about transferring consciousness, specifically that Kieran, maybe other Egan's could be brought back somehow by transferring his consciousness into a new body. And maybe that's what all the tests are for. So I know you can't give us any spoilers, but how would you go about advising a show on consciousness?

And since we've been talking about trauma and grief and escape as big themes of the show, was that consciousness research something that you were thinking about at all when you were helping to craft some of the more scientific parts of the narrative?
