Summary
I guess this is known as "The Room" of Cheesecake? OK, it was written as a weekly serial. It was never meant to be digested in one go!
Radiohead's Loophole competition brings together a disparate group of fans online, to form a close community, united by friendship, relationships, sex, bands, collaborations and connections both musical and personal - mostly with each other, but also sometimes with Radiohead themselves.
This is primarily a story about fandom, and internet communities. Although Radiohead do appear throughout the story (as well as guest appearances from Nigel, Four Tet, and thinly veiled ciphers for various artists mostly on the Hyperdub and Brainfeeder labels) the main focus of the story, and the main characters are all fans. At least, until until the second half, when Radiohead go on tour, and real life and internet fandom collide head on, and members of Radiohead join the cast properly.
Given that the action takes place mostly in cyberspace, there's not much to have to warn for. Just the usual flaming, trolling and occasional internet bullying, much of which has racist and sexist overtones. Also, warning: MAY CONTAIN DUBSTEP.
