Edict Zero Universe

“Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.”

– Isaac Asimov

Development continues with the new series. Post-production now focuses on the ninth feature (eight and a half hours in). Exciting times behind the heavily-layered scenes with a marvelous cast. Quaking the gods again with the creative talismans. 🥄🍳🔥🤠

The eighth feature of the new series is currently in post. With features 60-75 minutes each, that tells you how deep we're in. More than halfway there. Myth, magic, and mathematics. A bit of mayhem in the code. 🥄 "Dungeon down."

A blind listener remarking that she felt like she had experienced the visual composition of a film for the first time made my whole year. Something that never occurred to me when developing KAIROS (based on screen positions). As Agent Garrett would say: "How cool is that."

"Captain Afterland" now has its own place to shine on Spotify as a standalone. This series, of course, will also serve as an origin story for the next phase of the EZU @edictzero #AudioDrama #cyberpunk #sciencefiction #sf #fiction

For those wondering, 2026 wasn't a typo for when the next series will launch. Quality takes time, especially when the lone post-producer balances it with grad school. There's months of development ahead. I promise the series won't be the Daikatana of audio drama (kudos if you know this reference).

Fifteen years ago, on September 9, 2010, the first episodes of the “Edict Zero – FIS” series were released. What an adventure it has been and what adventure to come!

A series of Captainly events. Post-producing that was a blast. The acting part was as well. Such fun.

Though it will still be some time before releases or much information is shared about it, about half of next phase Series 1 is produced and ready for polishing stages later on. The EZU is electric. It's building. Lots of things to look forward when the time comes. Thanks to all the Edict Zero fans.

If audio creators wish to ride the societal import of the word "podcasting" then they should be mindful that such terms are defined by the most popular model. Your quality content cannot compete with the lowest common denominator in a numbers game. That's what you do when you don that word.

The first two episodes were remastered, but there were no revisions to them or any others. More remasters were planned but never quite happened. As for moments you don't remember, well, there's *a lot* in every episode so not surprising. =]

A hangover for the ages. D8

The hangover is real. The podcast hangover, that is.
I finished Edict Zero - FIS and Captain Afterland, that's 57 episodes of which most are over an hour long. It's a cyberpunk science fiction crime audiodrama, and I can't tell you the best parts of it because spoilers!

Interesting. That's odd.

Series 1 of next phase EZU is deep in production. It'll be a long one of about 11 to 12 feature episodes. A big event when the time comes with an ep released every week. That is what is known. This is just an assurance to fans that the EZ machine is running like a champion.

Offbeat, different, experimental, or boundary-pushing in art/entertainment isn't seen as viable by most creators. If you want more of that, you have to support more of that. You play it safe, they play it safe. If you want daring, dare to support the daring.

We're gearing up for an intense post-production phase over the summer for the next phase of Edict Zero Universe. Good times. In the meanwhile, the website has been going through a redesign. Feel free to visit and check that out. #cyberpunk #audiodrama

Kaya has previously guested in @edictzero.bsky.social and is soon to star in the upcoming EZ project!

Only the gods know how many hours went into it all. Enough to get their attention. :)

"Slipgate Nine Entertainment" was born on July 27, 2009 in an email thread between Jack Kincaid and James Keller. Edict Zero - FIS began taking shape not long after. What a journey it has been and what a journey ahead it will be. #edictzero #cyberpunk #audiodrama

I know many appreciated the nostalgia of the "modem handshake" sounds in Edict Zero - FIS for data streams, but do take note of a thing called Gibber-link. #edictzero #cyberpunk

The first episodes of the next EZU series are really coming together this week. We're a long way from releases as Series 1 is being treated as one big project, but these are some amazing times. The best is yet to come. #edictzero

@edictzero.bsky.social time for another listen!

The wonderful voice of Stefan Rudnicki is heard in many realms. One of those realms is Edict Zero FIS (Priam & Jedrick Kaminsky)

It's nice to hear some of the old Shadow Group band back together in my ears during post-production of the next EZU series. Hardly a spoiler since VA names were mentioned: Afterland, Prime, and Spoon. 🥄 The three in the final scene of the FIS series. #audiodrama #cyberpunk #edictzero

It's a beautiful thing to be mixing the Slipgate 9 audio logo and the classic FIS disclaimer segment into a new opening sequence for the next EZU series. It feels like coming home. It's been way too long. #edictzero #cyberpunk #audiodrama

Cool.
