Apple TV+ science fiction thriller created by Dan Erickson, in which employees of a biotech company have their work and personal memories surgically separated, exploring corporate control, identity, and consciousness.
Used a high-concept science fiction premise — the severed mind — as a lens for examining corporate dehumanization and questions of personal identity, executed with a distinctive visual grammar of sterile office architecture.
No recorded minds influenced.
No conceptual posterity found.
