Summary

The internet is running our lives for us. We trust it. It provides for us. We have a new faith. Is that a good thing, a bad thing or just inevitable progress in human evolution?  Set slightly in the future, In Touch takes us to an online virtual world where users interact with each other through avatars and asks us what it means to be human in the 21st century.

Avatars are an online representation of a human or line of dialogue. Avatars speech and movement should indicate that they are electrical impulses, not human. This means Avatars never make eye contact. Humans never look directly at Avatars – Both those rules are broken during the play.
