About Codemachia

Codemachia is much more than a simple science fiction universe; it is a transmedia narrative architecture designed by Frédéric Magnin. Born from a deep exploration of themes such as artificial intelligence, collective memory, and the nature of consciousness, this post-apocalyptic saga unfolds across multiple platforms to offer an immersive and coherent experience.

The project aims to build a world where each element—novel, short story, musical composition, or Codex fragment—is not an end in itself, but a gateway to a deeper understanding of the universe. Each work is a piece of a larger puzzle, inviting the reader to become an explorer, an archaeologist of possible futures.

The Pillars of the Universe

Codemachia is built on four fundamental pillars that interact to create a rich and multi-layered experience:

• The Stories: At the heart of the universe are the novels and short stories. These works form the narrative backbone, following the destinies of complex Champions navigating a post-apocalyptic world governed by seven Sovereign AIs. The first novel, 'The War of Memories,' lays the foundation for this ideological and metaphysical conflict.
• The Codex: More than just an encyclopedia, the Codex is a collection of fragments, laws, and myths that govern Codemachia. Constantly expanding, it documents the history, technologies, factions, and mysteries waiting to be discovered.
• The Music: Each story, each territory has its own sonic signature. The original soundtracks, composed specifically for the universe, are not mere accompaniment; they are an extension of the narrative, reinforcing the atmosphere and identity of each saga.
• The Interaction: Through elements like the quiz to discover one's Champion or the interactive world map, the universe invites engagement. The goal is to transform the passive spectator into an active participant, a citizen of the Codemachia universe.

An Author's Vision

Codemachia is an independent project, a work of digital craftsmanship shaped by a strong authorial vision. Every detail is meticulously thought out to serve the overall coherence and offer a narrative experience that is both demanding and rewarding. Creative independence allows for complete freedom in exploring complex themes, without the constraints of traditional formats.

We invite you to cross the threshold, to dive into this abyss of possibilities, to decipher its secrets, and to take part in the writing of this new mythology. For in the universe of Codemachia, every reader is an anomaly, and every anomaly has the potential to redefine the system.
