Overview

SHADOWSPHERES is a hybrid collection of essays and stories exploring the psychological and cultural fallout of a world accelerating beyond human control. From the rise of AI and the erosion of purpose to the collapse of empathy in a digitally saturated age, each piece reveals a different ""shadow-world"" of late humanity. A woman seeks emotional truth from an AI companion that quietly turns predatory; a family in a ruined future salvages the last meaningful objects; a boxer fights to feel alive inside a failing body; and ordinary people move through landscapes of technological dread, social decay, and unexpected tenderness. Blending dystopian nonfiction, speculative fiction, and philosophical reflection, SHADOWSPHERES examines what remains human when society fractures...how small acts of connection can survive in the ruins.
