Episode 7 - Tron

A Disney classic on High Tech Low Life? In the near... past?  A video arcade owner hacks into the mainframe of his ex-employer, looking for the paydata that proves he is the rightful creator of the world's most popular video game.  Unfortunately the artificial intelligence running security for the mega corp has other ideas, and transports our hero into the machine, where he discovers a world of programs being oppressed by the fascist A.I.  Sounds pretty cyberpunk when you put it that way, right?

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.
