SEALANT GORGE: 

You’ve heard of Silicon Valley – the annoying cabal of tech creeps intent on turning planet Earth into a giant self-service till – now get ready for Sealant Gorge, a group of Rochdale-based 'disrupters' working tirelessly to take humanity to the next level: the past. 

Amped up on a teeth-rotting diet of Teletex games, straight-to-VHS trash-horror, Terminator 2 and cans of Quatro, this lot of anti-innovators are bravely saying ‘no thank you!’ to a future of co-working spaces, facial recognition technology, bug-eating and capsule homes in favour of hazardous factory toil, LaserDiscs and asbestos insulation. 

Sound terrible? That’s because it is. Maybe we will give that plate of deep-fried tarantulas a go after all.
