About the Author
Luca Ottonello is a globally experienced storyteller, archaeologist, and digital creator whose work bridges history, science, and speculative fiction. Having lived and worked across multiple countries, Ottonello brings a uniquely international perspective to his writing, shaped by years of immersion in diverse cultures and historical landscapes. His professional journey spans education, law, administration, and archaeology.
These experiences have provided him with a deep understanding of human systems, structures, and the ways in which societies function and evolve. Ottonello has also specialised in archaeology, focusing on reconstructing ancient environments through advanced 3D technologies.
He holds a Master’s degree in Field Archaeology and a PhD in Digital Archaeology and Game Design, where he has explored the intersection of immersive storytelling, historical reconstruction, and interactive systems. Alongside his academic and professional work, Ottonello has developed games, systems, and experimental technologies, driven by a long-standing fascination with how worlds, both real and imagined, are built and experienced.
