“Being dead is something you learn to live with,” reflects the narrator of NOTES FROM THE UNCANNY VALLEY, an inventive, 400-page autofiction novel read as an audiobook posing as a podcast adapted as a movie in your mind. Listen, as the clues lead our alien observer down deep into the uncanny valley, where he begins to wonder, is he living in a simulation? Is he himself artificial intelligence? Will he find the missing link between monkey and machine?
