Polyp and Corbin Take Over depicts the struggle of a young man and woman to make it in a world centered on the act of audience capture.
They abandon the poor city, where the only work left to do is entrepreneurial, lo-fi, hand to
mouth, semi-desperate mediamaking
They embrace the alternative, the private “community preserves” where your entire world is a subscription,
and everyone’s
expected to get along.
They are fish out of water in both situations but in spite of themselves, they play the audience capture game as well as anyone.
