Future Narratives
I was invited by @envisioning.io to illustrate four fiction short stories for the Future Narratives platform of the Swiss company Deftech. Future Narratives: Centaur is an interactive narrative about our evolving relationship with technology. You will learn about the technologies and systems affecting how humans and machines interact, set among four stories. Each story explores the technologies differently, using a branching interface in which the reader chooses the direction of narrative and learns about differing technological readiness levels. Upon concluding a story, you receive access to an interactive radar interface representing all technologies cited in the research.

You are Mika, a teenager fascinated by the Multiverse, an XR environment inhabited by avatars and autonomous digital beings. You hate the limitations of physical reality. Incidents will force you to decide whether to stay in the Multiverse forever or to never go back.
