The ancient epic of Gilgamesh is reimagined in the present, as a confrontation with human notions of mortality in the face of emergent artificial intelligence. An epic poem in blank verse, because why not?

Tech CEO Gilbert Mesh rules the technical and cultural landscape of Silicon Valley, but many increasingly see him as a tyrant. When the board appoints a co-ruler in the form of Enid Kidd, she becomes first his rival, then his greatest ally. Together, they pursue their secret agenda: to create a new form of life, a sentient program. Opposition from populist Hugh Baba and the terrifying vagaries of internet culture drives their quest to dark, dangerous places, and not everyone will make it out okay.
