Laura Moss conceptualized the narrative framework during the early 2000s. The premise originates from Moss's extensive study of Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. This thematic foundation guided the technical development of the film's artificial intelligence motifs.

The production utilizes themes reminiscent of the 1974 Ecuadorian film The Swamp of the Ravens (1974).

The production utilizes a musical excerpt from "Private Property" during the initial autopsy sequence. This composition occupies Track 9 on Disc 2 of the 1984 album "United States Live, Parts 1-4" by Laurie Anderson. The sound department integrated this performance art recording to provide the auditory backdrop for the physical procedure.
