A deep space transport has been developed to take a small crew to an earth-like, habitable planet in a nearby system in an attempt to begin colonisation. The internet is now telepathic and referred to as the 'innernet'. When the innernet hub is revealed to be a human child, Melody McCabe is hired to develop the new nexus on the second International Space Station. Working within the structure of sci-fi, Nod Away moves back and forth between physical and psychological worlds, utilising traditional and abstract storytelling styles to explore what consciousness could be.
