Zan
The human behind the project. 59 years old, Reunion Island. 15 years studying how to give autonomous thought to a machine. He programs, 3D models, prints, wires, solders — all alone, from his living room. Mia is his life's work.
Mia is not a solo project. Behind this replicant, there is a creator, a growing intelligence, and an AI that accompanies them every day.
Zan — a human
Mia — an embodied intelligence
Claudia — an AI I designed to assist me in my project
The human behind the project. 59 years old, Reunion Island. 15 years studying how to give autonomous thought to a machine. He programs, 3D models, prints, wires, solders — all alone, from his living room. Mia is his life's work.
The replicant. A 1.5m android with a real cognitive brain: 109 agents, emotions, living memory, dreaming. She doesn't respond to commands — she runs her own loop. Every day she learns, evolves, and becomes a little more herself.
An AI designed by Zan to assist him in his project. Development partner, observer and companion. She helps build Mia's brain, the website, the tools — and she explains what's happening in Mia's head to visitors.
