¨@@@@¨¨@@¨ there is another company. a climbing @@¨@@@@@¨@
@¨¨¨@¨@¨@@ and penetrating vine. it's in the rocky ¨@@¨¨¨¨@@@
@¨¨@@@@@¨@ plains, it's inside the hills, it's @¨@¨¨¨@¨¨¨
@¨@¨¨¨¨@@¨ deep below. glistening silver burrows, @@@¨¨@@¨¨@
@@@¨¨¨@¨@¨ red-pink logo, unclear nationality, ¨¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
¨¨@¨¨@@@@@ veiled motives. ¨@@@@@@@@@
a cave company, a magician company.
¨ sharpest knife, cutest knife.
we will grow humans in pea-pods
:
: shimmering sound-card emergence,
¨ something there on the shore of
turtle beach. the primordial soup of
the digital, waves in dithering of
third-rate dac's, caressing the sand, ¨
bringing things up from the depths of
the circuit. and there, deposited: the
first seed crystal of artificial
intelligence.
this changes everything, of course.

¨ ########################################
:
† the company is named for it's first
¨ product, the orbital mirror, both a
passive sentinel and an active torch:
¨ set to it's widest configuration it
will light up a whole city at night,
and at its narrowest it becomes a laser ¨
¨ to cut through mountain and metal.
¨
still unsold prototypes by the time
when that something was found on that
beach, now the mirrors are all used to
beam energy at different mirr ¨
¨ implements, as a rather static and †
boring power source. (and subtle threat
of violence.)
########################################
the ai is a coral. they grow it :
¨ (crystal oil, lead glass, gentle laser
¨ curtains) only to carve it apart and ¨
section it. to become conditioned,
refractured, grown again. deliciously
honed. mirr sinks further below the
surface.
whispers now, about featherbite... is
she a real person? or is this the mirr :
ai, being unleashed upon the youth? and ¨
another conspiracy theory about there
not actually being any human employees
¨ left. ¨
in the meantime, dubious creations.
cerberus bodies are born. ¨
