The Ministry Of Control

This project explores speculative worldbuilding through the framework of machines and systems. Referencing biopunk cinema and bio-creative design practices, a fictional world was constructed by diagramming and collaging the Enigma machine, reimagining its logic to build new narratives. The political and social structure of the world was explored through four characters: a ration worker, a construction laborer, a rebel, and a leader. Each representing a different perspective within the system. Their intersecting stories form the basis of a visual novel, brought to life through a blend of digital painting, 3D modeling, and hybrid techniques that enhance the world’s believability and emotional depth.
