Technicolour Sandbox is a quirky melange of off-beat, might-just-happen, speculative science fiction stories, held together by an underlying adhesive from the virtual and digital universe-an inevitable epoch the world is approaching in leaps and bounds. These six short stories carry the basic theme, whether it's a mere mention or a full-on metaverse experience. * * * From Mars, with (Love) Terror: Could a habitat simulation be, in fact, a virtual minefield to navigate?

Technicolour Sandbox is a quirky melange of off-beat, might-just-happen, speculative science fiction stories, held together by an underlying adhesive from the virtual and digital universe-an inevitable epoch the world is approaching in leaps and bounds. These six short stories carry the basic theme, whether it's a mere mention or a full-on metaverse experience. * * * From Mars, with (Love) Terror: Could a habitat simulation be, in fact, a virtual minefield to navigate? It's worth a thought when reality becomes so skewed as to make one wonder. Puff of Smoke & Quantum Qubits: Entities created from the energies of real life and the virtual world. Is that even possible? It appears so, since a would-be empress enters Real Life to find the emperor she must free. Trans-galactic Dreaming: Can astral travel really be as simple as falling asleep? And can one return from such travels? Cabin Cruising: Will our elderly end up going on virtual cruises? What's to stop its abuse - and meddling offspring who only want their inheritance and the old out of the way? Adnile: Drenched in a world inhabited by everything fantasy, from dragons to faeries-but is it real? And why does the queen remember her mortal self? The Robot and the Goldfish: Can a robot evolve to have emotions so he can watch sunsets with his fish? And can a robot suffer grief and loss, then make things right for his well-being?
