    Waking Up is a five part story set in Brooklyn NY in 2035. This is the final episode, titled "Threshold." In the previous episode, you experienced blackouts and disorientation, likely from a malfunction in your Neuromax brain chip. As you make your way back home, you black out again and suddenly find yourself face-to-face with your ex, Lucy. Performed by Jenise Morgan, Michael Ryan, Tali Hamilton, KC Comeaux, Ghan Patel, and the Micrologus Studio choir conducted by Juan Klas. Story: Waking Up is about a synthetic consciousness born trapped inside a human. It is an exploration of the science and spirituality of consciousness, as well as the fallibility of our subjective perception.  Music:  In some Vedic and Buddhist writing, consciousness is described as a vibration. The music seeks to explore the effects of two waves vibrating together. Spacetime Diaries Team:  Waking Up is written, composed, and produced by Ghan Patel. Story consultants: Jenise Morgan, Maria Teutsch, and Lauren Heagerty. Engineering by Daniel Lynas. Album art by Joanna Gonzalez. "Threshold" was released September 12, 2024.
