'the shallows' explores our relationships with technology. set to a dark motorik pulse and haunted by machines, production duties were handed to richard formby, celebrated for his work on the mercury prize-nominated 'two dancers' by wild beasts. 'the shallows' deals with themes of information overload, charts a history of how our tools have shaped us, and asks how our recent reliance on digital technology to obtain information has changed the way we think and retain knowledge.
