About this listen

The Drowning Wave is an elegy for the human mind in the age of acceleration—a poetic reckoning with the systems we built, and the tides that now carry us. It explores the quiet violence of progress: how technology promised liberation but delivered dependency, how intelligence became automated, and how meaning dissolved into motion. Through haunting, reflective prose, the book contemplates the moral cost of convenience and the psychological surrender of a generation that trades awareness for ease. The Drowning Wave is not a warning, but a mirror—a meditation on what it means to remain human when the machines have already begun to dream without us.
