Synopsis: An “explornographer” (a contemporary explorer who seeks adventure in a world that has already been mapped) races to the North Pole for New Year’s Eve 200, pursued by the mischievous Y2K Bug. Historical figures Lief Ericsson and Lady Jane Franklin are portrayed by the adventurer on her polar trek, tracing a line of exploration from ancient Vikings through Victorians to our postmodern age of explornography. As the clock strikes midnight on the new millennium, the explornographer makes her final fatal stab for the North Pole, while the bug threatens to destroy the technological world.
