9th February, 2017.
It has to be said …
Sometimes, there’s nothing like some music to help an evening go with …
Well, if not a bang … then certainly a …
A …
Non-bang …
If that make’s any sense?
At any rate, as I type? I have some music on.
Brian Eno’s Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror, so you know.
OK, my listening habits?
Possibly aren’t something that’s going to grab you.
The fact is, I wanted to add a little local colour to what could have been an otherwise boring introduction.
That, at heart?
And caught another two episodes, tonight.
~≈⇧≈~
Episode 5 — eps1.4_3xpl0its.wmv — sees Eliot (Rami Malek) acting as
fsociety’s frontman in the attempt to hack Evil Corp’s secure backup site: called Steel Mountain for a reason.
They hope to wire-up a modified Raspberry Pi to one of the site’s thermostats, in order to melt the company’s back-up tapes.
Meanwhile? Meanwhile, Angela (Portia Doubleday) has split up from her partner, Ollie: and moves in with her father … only to find him very supportive of her life.
Episode 6 — eps1.5_br4ve-trave1er.asf sees Eliot coerced into cracking Vera out of jail: as Vera has managed to kidnap Shayla.
Whilst Angela searches for more information about her mothers death: and Tyrell manoeuvres his way up another corporate rung.

Now …
Good … ?
Do you mean the album — I’m now playing Ambient 1: Music for Airports — or the series?
Album first, quickly: yep: it’s good.
Interesting to both listen to and ignore at the same time.
Episodes five and six?
Superb: the story is rolling along: AND, in killing Shayla, showing us exactly the danger Eliot and the
fsociety gang are in.
Frankly?
Next chance I get, I’ll be writing more about Mr Robot … !

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
