What if you found yourself at a massive, transformative festival during a sudden ecological meltdown and global geopolitical fiasco? That existential precipice is the jumping off point for author Daniel Pinchbeck's first full-length play, Deep Zero. The five-act black comedy covers currently relevant themes including psychedelic exploration, polyamory, indigenous prophecy, genetic engineering, Artificial Intelligence, "plus and play" camps, exponential technologies, and Illuminati conspiracies. Characters include members of the wealthy elite - from Silicon Valley to Russian oligarchs - and their friends and sycophants. A transhumanist philosopher espouses the Simulation Hypothesis, indigenous elders dispense prophesy and General Artificial Intelligence wakes up to join the fun. Daniel Pinchbeck is the bestselling author of Breaking Open the Head (Broadway Books, 2002), 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl (Penguin, 2006), How Soon Is Now (Watkins, 2017). and, with Sophia Rokhlin, When Plants Dream (Watkins, 2019). An internationally renowned visionary and thought leader, he speaks frequently at festivals and conferences around the world. He co-founded the company Evolver.net which publishes the web magazine Reality Sandwich and runs The Alchemist's Kitchen.
