Voltz Experimental Audiobook Chapter 1 of 5

In a distant future where militaristic corporations rule and colonies are traded as currency, Galactic Cobalt Fleet Sigma40, led by the formidable Admiral Augustine, has just acquired Appius XI, a small research settlement focused on an unusual energy source - the human brain. The colonists, now under Augustine's control, elect a president to negotiate their future.

In this experimental audiobook, we continue our journey through the science fiction world of the short story, Voltz, written by Michael David Marshall. This video is one chapter in a 5 part dramatized reading, complete with cinematic montages that bring the story to life.

This project was made by the author as an exploration of both artificial intelligence voice and video tools; he explains more of his process working through this project in an article he’s written on the subject on Insolent Cool’s Substack newsletter.* The short story itself is available for purchase on Kindle.**
