Black Mirror TV series to highlight topics related to humanity's relationship to technology
Season 5 of Black Mirror has finally been confirmed on Netflix and will be officially released on June 5, 2019, and fans are thriving for its release! For those who don’t know what Black Mirror is, it’s a sci-fi anthology series that goes to show how technology can be threatening to our lives, and shows how impactful and dangerous it could be if misused. Black Mirror guides to show its viewers some of the worst-case scenarios of how technology could drive our lives to the near future if we people of the current generation are not cautious enough, and despite it being an entertainment show, this is definitely eye opening for many of us viewers. It’s useful to observe and take in some of the important highlights that the show dives deep into and how some of the episodes could have a possibility of coming to reality. The new upcoming season will have Miley Cryus cast in one of the episodes where it would be about a lonely teenager that yearns to connect with her favorite pop star who would be Miley Cyrus here but her charmed existence wouldn't be as quite as it appears it to be.
Many individuals here in Oman have mentioned how some of the great shows on Netflix are not offered to some regions and Oman tends to be one of those regions. Well, we have exciting news for some Omanis but Black Mirror will be available to watch here in Oman by the time it is released on June 5th! So expect to have your streaming devices, membership plans, and snacks ready! We are just a couple of weeks away from its release! Below is the trailer of the latest upcoming season of Black Mirror.

2 info-graphic videos completed for MEDC
We have wrapped our latest project for Muscat Electricity Distribution Company (MEDC).
Two videos were just released on MEDC's official YouTube channel.
The first video explains the journey of the electricity bill starting from meter readings to the final stage of paying the bills.
The video also explains to customers the importance of updating customers data on MEDC's website www.medcoman.com which allows them to use the "SMR self meter reading" feature to make sure the customer receives an accurate bill with actual reading every month, and allowing the customer to pay through many different channels.
The second video is explaining the services provided by the new automated call center recently released by MEDC.
Both videos where done in info-graphic style focusing on simplifying the information for viewer.
