Abstract
“Mesakghul – Dimensions of Hunting” is a fictional universe that unfolds across multiple media. Characters, settings, a constructed language, a comprehensible magic system, and complex storylines come together to create an immersive print product available in various formats. The literary content is complemented and reflected by artefacts, allowing readers to immerse themselves deeper through an augmented reading experience.
In search of a product between a book and a comic, this urban fantasy novel strives for linguistic virtuosity and visual diversity. It combines the means and techniques of various media to facilitate new ways of storytelling. The author connects various design disciplines and acts as a product designer, conceptual artist, costume designer and graphic designer, all in one.
The protagonists Serafina, Willaram and Argus witness the brutal murder of an unassuming girl, whereupon they investigate the matter on their own. In doing so, they encounter a military sect, ancient magical races with severe influence on Earth, and travel through the dimensions up to heaven and hell.
