Coming soon: Mycelium
At MindScape Solutions, the perks are killer. Literally.
Escaping a traumatic past, Sally accepts a role at a remote tech campus shielded from Oregon’s wildfires by a miraculous hydration barrier. CEO Mark promises radical optimization, but the culture is invasive. The proprietary tea tastes like wet soil, customer tickets scream of golden irises and tapeworm growths, and "wellness" protocols track every heartbeat.
As Sally falls for the Director of R&D, she uncovers the company’s true source of efficiency: an ancient fungal intelligence colonizing the staff from the inside out. When the fires force a lockdown, Sally realizes the "family" atmosphere is actually a feeding frenzy.
Blending the sharp corporate satire of Ripe with the visceral horror of The Thing, Mycelium asks: how much of yourself will you hollow out for a promotion?
