Ash is restless, searching, flashing between disaster movies, warehouse raves, internet cafes, disaster movies, Tazos, vegan junk food, guided meditations on smartphone, the countryside. For her the question isn't how to live in the age of the internet, it's who's going to be there when it all falls apart.

"Brash, inventive and unapologetically strange. There's nothing else quite like it." —Benjamin Law

"A real, weird, wired, 3G dream. No Limitmight just tenderly reprogram your brain." —Penny Modra
