MD Selig – HUSH: Going Dark | Science Fiction Based on Fact
Description
We sit down with MD Selig to explore HUSH: Going Dark, a science-fiction narrative rooted in observable reality—technology, surveillance, information control, institutional silence, and the slow erosion of visibility.
Rather than explosions and invasions, HUSH examines a more unsettling scenario: systems that stop responding, channels that close without announcement, and a population conditioned to accept silence as normal. The discussion moves fluidly between fiction and fact, highlighting where current trajectories in media, governance, AI, and security already resemble the world described in the story.
This is a conversation about how power operates quietly, how narratives are managed through omission rather than force, and why “going dark” may be the most realistic future shock of all.
