Planet Aqua, three hundred million years ago. A massive fleet of zègus, colossal alien spaceships, land on the planet serving for a while as self-sustaining homes. Soon enough though, Zègunians realise that Aqua is going through significant environmental upheavals. Despite the resilience of their zègus they know they won’t be able to stay much longer.

Their scientists had identified previously unknown particles that they named conscirons with their associated field and which they believed might be related to the human brain. So technicians and scientists develop the HASAMAT, a technology that makes use of the new field and copies and projects consciousness into the cosmos at immeasurable speed. They are convinced that the HASAMAT could be a revolutionary way to explore the galaxy.

UÌGO is an intrepid reporter-explorer. Despite skepticism from others, he volunteers to trial the HAZAMAT and undergoes the first journey to the enigmatic Gameogo, a potentially habitable planet at the edge of the galaxy. He is tasked with verifying the conditions of the planet. His arrival on Gameogo brings a surreal twist, as the components of his mind are reorganized into a new mental structure by the mysterious Gameogans.

The narrative weaves through strange encounters, bizarre perceptions and the evolution of both minds and planets. As UIGO grapples with the fluidity of reality, profound questions arise about the nature of existence, the meaning of evolution and the interconnectedness of universes.

Borrowed Brains is a thought-provoking and visionary tale that transcends the ordinary in an adventure from the complexities of the mind to the vastness of the cosmos.
