M. Cameron Harris is currently writing a series of science fiction novels set in the mid-twenty-first century, a time when plutocratic oligarchies vie for control through AI-empowered corporate activities and highly refined perception-shaping technologies. The novels envision a world shaped by multiple, interacting technological, scientific, and social trends evident in the real-world today, including:
- The ironic convergence of a seemingly miraculous technological society and increasing environmental crisis
- Ubiquitous networked sensors and data collectors and the nearly invisible, yet persistent surveillance and behavior manipulation they allow
- An always-connected lifestyle and its psychological and societal effects
- Increasingly immersive augmented and virtual realities (AR and VR), that make virtual experience primary for most people
- The co-opting and hollowing out of nation states by plutocratic corporatocracies
- New
economies and means of exchange - Increasing human migrations
- Humanity’s early colonization of the solar system
- The emergence of strong (general) artificial intelligence
- The advent of high-resolution mind cloning

I am facing problems checking out your website. I am unable to find any information. I am hopeful that you can offer me some help.
Hi. Sorry for the delay. This site is a placeholder as I complete my first novel’s draft. Sometime before summer I will start posting weekly blog updates.
