About Binding Prometheus. Top Story - January 2026.
I want to start actively advocating on behalf of my own work, and the most valuable part of my canon is, without a doubt, Binding Prometheus, the play I have been working on since 2019 and only finished in 2023 as part of my MA. The play itself is an amalgamation of a million different inspirations. On one end, it evokes the Ancient Greek myth-play, deriving its own title from the earliest extant work of Western drama we have, Aeschylus’s Prometheus Bound. On the other end, it borrows significantly from the sci-fi bulwarks from over the years, namely Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and Karel Capek’s Rossum’s Universal Robots. The play could be an episode of Black Mirror, I fear. I don’t know. I’ve only ever seen one episode of Black Mirror.

A Dystopia of Our Own Design. Top Story - November 2025.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever. –George Orwell, 1984 More and more often, I look around and find that the themes of my favorite dystopian novels have come to life: separatism/division, erasure, controlling the past to control the future, the rich stamping on the poor while the poor take it out on each other, using technology to control and monitor our lives, etc. It is everything that we have been warned against, especially in literature—time and time again.

The ‘9-9-6 Work Schedule’ Could Be Coming To Your Workplace Soon
AI startups are glorifying exhaustion for the sake of productivity, implementing the “9-9-6 work schedule” in an attempt to “win the AI race," according to recent reports. Tekendra Parmar, writing in last month’s Inc., says, “In a bid to outpace Chinese rivals, some AI startups are adopting that country’s grueling “9-9-6 work schedule.” But the future of work might actually lie in working less, not more.” Parmar adds that the “9-9-6 work schedule” could actually hurt instead of help productivity.
