Cyber Designer's Notes

A mixed media work that reads like the private sketchbook of someone trying to engineer a feeling.

This is a page from a process, not a finished portrait. The title says so directly. Three figures sit in various states of completion, two left as cold technical line, one filled with orange as though the designer finally decided where warmth should go.

The explosive comic sounds function as notes to self. They mark the places where sensation is supposed to live, stand-ins scribbled in before anyone knows how a machine would actually register a blow. Circuit lines, constellations, and loose code surround them like options still being weighed.

A peace sign waits in the corner, an instruction from an older language that may not survive the build.

Why this work matters: it shows artificial feeling as something drafted, revised, and uncertain, capturing the strange moment before a synthetic mind exists, when its capacity to suffer is still just an annotation in someone's margins.
