About This Book
The story follows a brash financier who storms the headquarters of a flamboyant artist-engineer whose corporation merges art, science, and biotechnology. Within a gaudy, gadget-filled atelier of life-like statues, mechanical brains, and elaborate practical jokes, their confrontation unfolds through satirical, surreal episodes. The narrative juxtaposes theatrical displays of power with whimsical inventions, using dark humor to examine vanity, control, the commodification of creativity, and the ethical puzzles of artificial life when genius treats people and technology as toys.
