Inspired by Little Nemo in Slumberland, The Little Prince, The Red Balloon, and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, I created the graphic novel ‘Idono in Loopy Land’ with a cinematic flow of illustrations about a lonely avatar-boy looking for friends inside a virtual world created by The Leader. 

This 115 page book is aimed at the 13 - 29 yrs age group.

Short synopsis:

Theme: absurdity of (virtual) events mirror the unpredictability of life.

Moral: be aware of the difference between fact and fake.

Plot:

The Leader (Mark Zuckerberg with a Pinnochio nose) controls his user profile harvesting platform called Loopy Land. After being warned about an impending hack of his platform, he deploys two platform officers to find the hackers. An avatar is selected by the hackers to play a game with. They ask him what his name is, and he answers “I don’t know”, which they hear as Idono.

The platform moves Idono deep into Loopy Land, where he is constantly looking for friends, and -among other things- narrowly escapes a NFT certified digital art collection, finds an avatar girlfriend who gets killed by a speeding emoji, is sucked up by the spiral of Fake, and has his time-line shortened which turns him instantly into an adult. Eventually, the hackers are caught, Idono is booted off-line, and is employed to help teach the Loopies how to see fact from fake.
