omega point         
                          
                                          
 can you feel it?  behind things,  inside 
     things, something is happening.      
     something between nothing and the    
           collapse of reality.           
                                          
 the  objects  themselves  do not change. 
 the  physicality of a  person stays  the 
                   same.                  
                                          
 but   items   have  relations  with  one 
 another,  and  here  is  the revolution. 
    the relationships congregate, the     
 networks become  meshes, and they spread 
 out  like  heat nets  over  kale  farms. 
                                          
 things  become  part  of bigger  things. 
 people  become  part  of bigger  actors. 
 often too big to  be seen -  but perhaps 
                  felt...                 
                                          
 lets walk backwards  trough the  sludge! 
 what's  an animal? a collective of cells 
        with a single mind (kinda)        
 what's  a cell? actually in  this  sense 
 it's  a  collective of cells  and lesser 
  molecular machines ("proteins" et al)   
           and other fragments            
                                          
 what's  a  molecule?  just  a  bunch  of 
 atoms bound  (fey concept) together by a 
          set of ineffable rules          
 what's  an  atom?  (things  are  getting 
 alien  at  this  point)  well  basically 
               it's an "orb"              
                                          
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                          
 we're gonna  lose ourselves in it. maybe 
 we   have   been    for    some   while.
