Have you met Henry Maddox? He knows you -- not personally of course. But he does know everything about you. So much so that he can not only sell you anything, he can even alter your behavior to sell you things that you didn't even know you wanted. How you ask? Welcome to the world of Big Data, Corporate Propaganda, and Market Fragmentation. But when Henry is forced to face how his techniques affect real people, he realizes he has inadvertently given corporations the power to destroy society for their own ends. The Curtain explores the effect that increasingly sophisticated data manipulation has on our communities, families, and daily lives. In an age of digital distractions, who remembers the transcendent morality that has made past civilizations prosper? When corporations have the technology and motive to pull people apart, what keeps us together?
