The Foreskin of Technology - Featuring: ZAK

Somewhere, somehow, we have all encountered modern technology - from high-speed phone dialers to our very own personal computers sitting on our desktops at home. Modern technology - what a blessing. Lives are enhanced with that latest invention, that latest computer chip, that latest cellular phone!! However, what would happen if that "Modern Technology" had a persona? What would happen if that "Modern Technology" had something to say BACK to us?? We all wait in breathless anticipation for that next NEW gadget, that next AMAZING gizmo, but WHAT would happen if it wasn't quite ready for US?? What would happen if we stretch back that FORESKIN of TECHNOLOGY with that next latest, greatest technological marvel, and it came along to question US - to CHALLENGE us??? We would quite possibly end up with something very close to ZAK - the self-automated computer with attitude…

ZAK is a walking, talking computer with all kinds of neat capabilities. To technical people, he is the epitome of computer aided design - complete with holographic projection. This grants anyone fortunate enough to be "working with" Zak the unique capability to walk around, and into computer generated designs. He is, in the last analysis, pretty heavy-duty (which could explain the combat boots). Alas, however, all is not made perfect by having such an ultra-powerful technological marvel…

The Boss-Man

One day, see, there was this Boss-Man, and he really, really, really wanted a FAX machine…

Instead of a FAX machine, it's the ZAK "machine" that just happens to be delivered - by mistake - to the aerospace office where this particular Boss-Man just happens to be -uh- the Boss. It's this oh-so-honest mistake that begins the Zak-adventure, a chronicle if you will, of the Foreskin of Technology.

Besides the Boss-Man, there are other characters that round out the cast of Zak's world, as he attempts to fulfill his "programming". So, if you promise not to make too much noise - after all, we wouldn't want to disturb their work - this would be a perfect time to show you around the "office".

D.A.D. So, you see, there's a lot going on here at the Foreskin of Technology… In addition to the "regulars", there's a host of other characters that wander thru the pages of the Zak Chronicles. One such character is D.A.D. who apparently has had something to do with the "manufacture" of Zak…

ZAK Trickle Charger Also, there are more gizmos and gadgets than even what the Smithsonian might feature!! And watch for the HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTION which engulfs unsuspecting coworkers, whisks them away into fascinating worlds, and occurs at any time - usually the wrong time!!!

Black Shirt Society And, what IS the mysterious BLACK SHIRT SOCIETY, what is the corporate secret they guard, and how does it affect us ALL???

Well, now the stage is set… The hard work of compiling (another computer term) all the characters, and plotlines, and storyboards together is finally done. You have boldly come this far… The World According of Zak awaits…

Click on through in the ZAKIVES to today's adventure, or click back to go through earlier encounters… Whichever you do, you are in for a real "ZAKIAN" kind of time… And don't forget to drop us a line!!
