Starting as a pet project during my high school days, The Domain spread from one simple idea: an android superhero is programmed and built for the advancement of the all-powerful empire … and thus proceeds to kick the emperor’s ass. Needless to say, a lot has been added onto this simple premise — from the characters, world, and backstory of what would eventually become The Domain: a multi-part sci-fi series that tells the struggles of the oppressed innocence, crushed under the tyrannical regime of the AI-controlled Autorise Domain.
While the seed for the project was planted in 2012, it wouldn’t be until September 2019 (four months after graduating college) when work began to move The Domain into the public eye. After months of planning, I am glad to finally open the official website for The Domain!
Make sure to follow this page and read new material as it comes — whether that through the series’ online serials or the work-in-progress novel: The Autorise Domain. With that said…
Backstory
Three hundred years after the rise of information technology, the United States has shattered, its democratic government overthrown by Autorise S.A. — now the Autorise Domain. Torn apart under the new AI-driven regime, the nation and its people are faced with an ultimatum: integrate with the Domain or go rogue. Those who abandon the Domain are forced to live off the western lands; those who integrate are bound to life among the Domain’s artificial life forms — including the etternel: androids designed and programmed to serve the Autorise Domain in a fleshy, human exterior.
If the Domain is not establishing new cities or experimenting with new AI developments, it is invading luocan settlements and rehabilitating those within the regime who continue to resist. The Autorise Domain is poised to dominate what remains of the broken United States in due time — with the rest of the world soon to follow.
