What are we willing to do as a society to fulfil our sensory needs? This growing problem in our current society of the ' 10 second attention span' is interpreted through the lens of futuristic technologies. We pose the question, ' What would the experience be like, if we could live while we sleep? ' But just like with all technologies, there' s an unknown cost that comes due. Yun-Yeong Bin AKA ' Rip' lives a double life - that of an underachieving engineering student by day, and two personas each night in the hit VR game FUTURE she plays in her sleep. The catch: one of those personas is her dead best friend, and the lines begin to blur.
Matthew Medney is the CEO of the generational & legendary Heavy Metal Magazine, and co-founded Boutique Storytelling Company, Hero Projects where he also still presides as CEO. Leading the charge at two genre focused brands, Matthew spends most of his time thinking about the unknown. A graduate of the University Of Massachusetts at Amherst' s Isenberg School of Management, Matthew started his career in the live events space, operating as a tour & production manager, traveling across 45 countries producing over 200 shows for concerts such as Coachella, Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival & Lollapalooza. "A Prolific Writer" (Variety) with the ultimate goal of looking to expand minds and engage readers through high concept Science Fiction, Medney has authored best selling works such as his hard sci-fi novel Beyond Kuiper: The Galactic Star Alliance and the graphic novel Dark Wing. In addition, he has penned multiple comic books including The Red, and his highly anticipated forthcoming work The Adventures of Adrienne James, which can best be described as "female Indiana Jones - in space" - SYFY Other notable comic and graphic novel works Medney has helmed include work done in collaboration with bands and music festivals such as the largest Hip Hop Festival in the world Rolling Loud, Grammy award winning musician Shaggy, along with other notable talents such as NGHTMRE, Pegboard Nerds, Riot, and Insomniac' s Events. Morgan Rosenblum is an award winning and best-selling comic book author, best known for his breakthrough fantasy original graphic novel series, Winds of Numa Sera (Dark Horse). Morgan currently works as Managing Editor and Art Director at the iconic Heavy Metal magazine, where he has played a large role in the brand' s recent resurgence. He also co-founded Hero Projects (alongside Heavy Metal CEO Matt Medney), a burgeoning custom comics company, where he presides as the Chief Creative Officer building original comics and story-based content for the likes of Sony, Live Nation, and Disney, to name a few. With other new titles in development and already signed to major publishers, Morgan is quickly establishing himself as a hot commodity creator in the industry.
