A thousand years in the future, people have forgotten a lot of things. Pencils, notebooks, you name it. But who would ever thought that such an important thing like musical instruments have vanished from the world? They were replaced by computers, which produce exactly the same sound.
But there is no way a computer could replace the musician's feelings, when he puts the bow on the strings and releases the rich sound from the violin....
And Caroline is going to prove it.

Electronic Death Music (EDM: Harmonic Wasteland)
The world was in shambles. Natural resources were scarce. Poverty, unemployment, and disease are rampant throughout the world. It is affected by the ubiquity of the technological scourge. All manual labor is performed by incessant iron muscles. Technology is the only source of employment and economic wellbeing for the modern world. Artificial intelligence is well developed, leading to the prevalence of automatons within our communities. These automatons have replaced their human counterparts not only within the manual labor market but also within careers requiring technical knowledge. Even skills that required the inventiveness and innovation of the human mind are replaced by the unrelenting efficiency of artificial intelligence. The over-supply of metallic citizens and the stagnant state of global economy made humans to ignore the arts. A dearth of trees due to over-pollution caused a scarcity of many musical instruments like pianos, guitars, flutes, and harps. The automatons have perfected only the soothing of the cerebral cortex with zirkanium levers and buttons. Their brand of music appeals to the areas in the brain associated with primitive instincts and pleasure. There is nothing intellectual about the automaton's melodic creation because it lacks the necessary human element. Homo sapiens are not perfect but they do create imperfectly. No music exists in this world, only Electronic Death Music.Complete
Schematic Beauty
A first, crap, draft of a story I'm rewriting in a universe I made up when I was 18 and still love. I don't really intend to publish this - it's the base for what's probably going to be a film, if I can get the main characters to stop jabbering at each other. I haven't touched this draft for more than two years. You get to look at it and see what shit I don't send to the publishers. :) Featuring: infodumps! Run on sentences! Extended metaphors that don't make sense! Purple prose for the sake of purple prose!Complete

KILLER SYMPHONY
It's Classical Music vs. Heavy Metal! A dark sci-fi story about a killer who falls in love with the superstar violinists he's paid to silence and a heavy metal idol that gets his left arm replaced by a mechanical limb. How far would you go to protect the music you love? One lived to create killer symphonies, the other craved to reinvent heavy metal… Gabrant Evergreen, a music-obsessed, schizophrenic hitman, is hired to silence the world-famous violinists, and twin sisters, Artemis and Arjuna. As he falls in love with their looks and their music, he rebels against his employers and starts to fight the other assassins sent after them. After Rikk Raven, a sensitive guitarist, sees his girlfriend brutally murdered, he receives an invitation from an obsessive fan that turns his world upside down. If he gives up his left arm, he could get it replaced by a mechanical limb that would allow him to play the guitar like no-one in the business. He agrees to this and meets the secretive Wintervia, an inventor who promises to make him into a star. Controlling everything from his subterranean throne, Wintervia uses six elite hitmen like chess pieces in his war against classical music, while he transforms the broken Rikk into the ultimate heavy metal machine.Complete

The Perks of Being a Musician
Have you ever stuffed up a solo at a concert? Been told you've been playing your instrument wrong despite the fact you've been playing it for eight years? Had a conductor yell in your face because it was meant to be a C SHARP? Talked to your fellow musical geniuses about an instrument you play and then realised they have no idea what a flugelhorn is? I could go on forever. After all, it is a rant book. But that's not the point. Be prepared to laugh the rosin off your bow with some pretty relatable rants about how life as a musician isn't necessarily all smooth gliding. Possibly literally for string players. Especially when doing spicatto. Written by a slightly experienced musician herself, who may or may not know what she's talking about. You'll have to find out for yourself. It's even in her name: Violin1st4 Completed.Complete
