Wow. I thought Night City was a bleak place and then I visited Project Liberty's Dogtown DLC. Yikes.

Side bar: It's dark a lot in this game.I've got all this super high tech gear but flashlights and nightvision do not exist.

images from 'Casshan: Robot Hunter' (1993)

an image from the feature of a large-bodied bulky robot, steam pouring from exhaust pipes in its shoulders, six red stripes on its abdomen, it has a spike on its blunt helmet-like head

the commander, a villainous looking man with grey skin in a uniform, wearing a tall red flat hat with spikes coming out of the sides

an image from the film, a light blue-skinned alien-like woman with her hand on her hip, wearing a dark purple bodysuit with bare legs and midriff, looking at the viewer , a purple and pin and blue sky behind her

the vhs cover, it is the hero wearing a metal helmet with a golden crest on the forehead, it reads the title at the top, at the bottom it reads 'perfect collection', in the lower right corner it reads 'orion home video' and in the left lower corner it reads 'streamline pictures'

In our 23rd century setting, the ecosystem has collapsed. Only 112 cities remain, sheltering under massive domes or inside of mountains. Artificial consciousness has been created, killed, and outlawed.

Quantum and nanotech have radically altered the world… and your character is one of the few equipped to handle it.

What if biological cells could be computer processors that form AI inside the human body? Blood Music begins with this question and just keeps on delving. A 1985 scifi classic that holds up. #bodyhorror #hardscifi #cyberpunk #pandemic #apocalypse #AI #biotech #biohacking #reading2025

Description by ChatGPT: This is a cinematic 3D render of a lone figure standing in a vast, metallic sci-fi corridor. The perspective is from above and behind, emphasizing the scale and emptiness of the environment. The corridor is constructed of heavy, worn metal panels with thick, rounded walls, giving it an industrial, spaceship-like feel. The lighting is cold and diffuse, coming from an open hatch or doorway at the far end, bathing the scene in a soft white glow.

In the center of the image stands a person with curly, bright red hair, clad in a sleek, futuristic black and blue bodysuit. They hold two long, thin weapons—possibly swords or batons—one in each hand, their arms slightly extended. The figure casts long shadows on the metallic floor, emphasizing their stance and the symmetry of the corridor.

The composition creates a dramatic mood of solitude, determination, or anticipation, as though the character is preparing for a confrontation or entering an unknown space. The contrast between the character’s vivid hair and the sterile environment draws attention to their presence in this futuristic and potentially hostile setting.

Buenos días!! #nosoyyo2081, mi última novela, es ciencia ficción distópica. Si te gusta el género y conoces mi estilo, seguro que te gusta. ¿Te animas y me cuentas?

SINOPSIS

Año 2081. La gente vive segura, pero distanciada, y el mundo disfruta de una paz engañosa. Kalevi es el hijo del archiduque de Neo Svitihiod, una de las regiones-países más seguras que existen. Su padre espera que lo suceda cuando llegue el momento, pero para eso ha de casarse y tener descendencia. Sin embargo, Kalevi oculta un secreto cuya revelación no solo podría obstaculizar su ascenso, sino también acabar con el cariño de la persona que ama.

Podéis encontrar la historia en formato físico en:

➤ https://letrareditorial.es/producto/no-soy-yo-2081

Y en tu librería habitual.

El miedo se había vuelto un sentimiento recurrente que se disfrazaba de recelo, inseguridad y aprensión. La epidemia de la soledad, sin embargo, era la más dramática de todas.

"People keep asking me when I'm going to have an update of the Magic Fingers mod that'll run under the Fuchi-9 Myocontrol Enhancement Module opcode, and I keep telling them I've got to get the speed control bug fixed in the Fuchi-7 version. I rolled back the repo to the last stable version, but there's people that haven't rolled back the patch, and two of ours got hurt last week because of that damn bug. Fuchi-9 can effing wait."

And two more bits of art for the fictitious exhibition.

Yes, I come home from my job in a museum to work on displays in a fictional fucking museum.

The face of a woman in shades of green. Painted over it are the words 'Feed your oppressors to the land' in white spray paint.

A collage of an futuristic eye with triangles of painted colour. The words 'Mordred is Watching' are scrawled in a scratchy hand over it.

And the next episode of the comic takes place in a museum and gallery, so naturally, I have to spend ages making individual artworks and UI assets for every screen a painting in the place...
