Episode 10 - Ghost In The Shell (1995)

For our big tenth episode, we are watching an absolutely key piece of cyberpunk media: Ghost In The Shell.   Cyborg smoke show Major Kusanagi Motoko struggles with her humanity after witnessing a man's life be erased before his eyes.  Thankfully, the architect of that erasure is there to guide her down a new path that's not quite human, but not quite machine either.

We are excited to be joined this week by Geoff from the Astronomica podcast to help us break down this anime classic.  Check out his links below.

The High Tech Low Life Podcast is a retrospective of cyberpunk fiction across all forms of media. Film, Television, Literature, Games, and Music are all on the table. In each episode we will revisit the property, it's influences, it's prescience, and enshrine it in the chrome and neon halls of Neo Valhalla.
