Full bio
Matt Locke has spent his career behind a microphone. He started podcasting out of Fort Wayne, Indiana in 2012, built his broadcasting career at WOWO Fort Wayne and 95.3 MNC in South Bend, and now hosts mid-mornings on WBAP News Talk 820 / 93.3 FM in Dallas-Fort Worth.
Talk radio runs on a single question: who decides what the audience gets to hear? His debut novel, Eye See, pushes that question into the near future and points it at something harder to argue with than a news bulletin: the pictures arriving directly in your head.
About the book
Kane Lewis is a brilliant coder born without sight. When he becomes one of the first recipients of OptiLink, a neural-vision implant built by Glimpse Inc. and its shadow partner CyberTech, he sees the world for the first time, rendered in stunning dynamic overlays. But sight comes at a price. Inside the feed Kane starts finding things that should not be there: manipulations buried in the visual layer, emotional triggers, behaviour-shaping algorithms. Glimpse's miracle is a tool of mass control. What begins as a fight for his own autonomy becomes a mission to free millions from a corporate-engineered digital prison.
