Mårten Sundling is a retired service engineer, systems thinker, writer, and AI workflow developer from Sweden. With a background spanning electrical systems, telecom, HVAC service, energy optimization, fluid dynamics, and industrial troubleshooting, his work has always revolved around understanding how complex systems behave under real-world conditions. After chronic spinal injuries and neurological complications forced an early departure from physically demanding engineering work, Mårten shifted his focus toward storytelling, digital artistry, and artificial intelligence research. What began as a necessity gradually evolved into a new multidisciplinary career combining cinematic writing, AI-assisted production pipelines, local language model research, and visual worldbuilding. Today, Mårten develops advanced AI-driven creative workflows focused on long-form coherent storytelling, cinematic scene generation, and emotionally grounded science fiction. His projects combine: * Local LLM orchestration and memory systems * AI-assisted writing pipelines * ComfyUI-based image and video generation workflows * YAML-driven scene architecture * Character continuity systems * Narrative codex and world-state tracking * Text-to-speech and cinematic audio production * GPU optimization and Linux kernel-level experimentation * AI tooling for modular creative production His work explores the intersection between engineering logic and emotional storytelling, often emphasizing believable systems, cause-and-effect worldbuilding, and deeply human interactions within speculative science fiction settings. Alongside fiction writing and AI research, Mårten also works with: * AI pipeline consulting * Workflow architecture * Prompt and orchestration systems * Local inference environments * GPU optimization * Experimental multimedia production * Independent publishing and audiobook production Rather than treating AI as a shortcut, he approaches it as a new production medium requiring structure, continuity, and discipline, much like filmmaking, engineering, or industrial systems design. His storytelling style blends cinematic pacing, grounded emotional realism, and technical plausibility, drawing inspiration from classic hard science fiction, survival narratives, and human-centered speculative fiction. Current areas of focus include: * AI-native filmmaking workflows * Long-form coherent video generation * Narrative orchestration systems * Local/offline AI ecosystems * Emotionally adaptive AI frameworks * Interactive storytelling architectures * Independent multimedia publishing Mårten currently operates as an independent creator, researcher, and freelance developer working at the intersection of AI, storytelling, systems design, and cinematic media production.
